Abstract
In this paper we have outlined design considerations and design solutions for a structure of a chameleon-like robot for assembling, service and repairing of space stations. Requirements and characteristics are discussed with the aim to define design problems and operation features that give motivation for a biomimetic inspiration to chameleons. Simulation in space station has been done to validate the feasibility of the proposed chameleon-like robot.
