// RESEARCH TRACK — In-space assembly & manufacturing
ISAM
IN DEVOne algorithm. Orbital boundary condition.
Assembling and manufacturing structures on orbit — the orbital extension of autonomous printing.
ISAM is the orbital edge of Segal's core competency: assembling and manufacturing structures on orbit rather than launching them whole. It is the explicit extension of Segal Development's autonomous printing thesis into space.
Terrestrial, orbital, lunar, Martian — one algorithm under different boundary conditions. ISAM is the track that makes the Foundry Ring and the surface nodes buildable.

On-orbit build
Assembles and prints structures too large to launch whole.
Shared core
Runs the same autonomous-construction algorithm as Segal Development.
Enables habitats
The track behind the Foundry Ring and the surface nodes.
Tell us the objective. We'll fly the rest.
Bring us the mission and we'll resolve the architecture end to end.
