{{Short description|none}}

PSLV Orbital Experiment Module (POEM) also known as PSLV Stage 4 Orbital Platform (PS4-OP) is an orbital micro-gravity test bed based on spent fourth stage of the Indian Space Research Organisation's PSLV rocket.{{Cite web |title=Payloads |url=https://www.isro.gov.in/Payloads.html |access-date=2025-02-09 |website=www.isro.gov.in}}

POEM-1

In June 2022, the PSLV-C53/DS-EO campaign had its PS4-OP referred as PSLV Orbital Experiment Module (POEM) and it was first PSLV fourth stage based orbital platform to be actively stabilized using eight Helium based cold gas thrusters after the primary mission and stage passivization.{{Cite web |last=Kumar |first=Chethan |date=June 25, 2012 |title=Bengaluru's Digantara, Hyderabad startup Dhruva become first to get IN-SPACe authorisation |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/bengaluru-digantara-hyderabad-startup-dhruva-become-first-to-get-in-space-authorisation/articleshow/92460375.cms |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220625153537/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/bengaluru-digantara-hyderabad-startup-dhruva-become-first-to-get-in-space-authorisation/articleshow/92460375.cms |archive-date=2022-06-25 |access-date=2022-06-26 |website=The Times of India |language=en}}{{Cite web |title=PSLV-C53/DS-EO mission |url=https://www.isro.gov.in/sites/default/files/article-files/pslv-c53-ds-eo-mission/pslv-c53-ds-eo-mission-brochure-english/brochure_pslv_c53-ds-eo_mission_english.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220705162540/https://www.isro.gov.in/sites/default/files/article-files/pslv-c53-ds-eo-mission/pslv-c53-ds-eo-mission-brochure-english/brochure_pslv_c53-ds-eo_mission_english.pdf |archive-date=5 July 2022}} POEM-1 (COSPAR ID:2022-072E, SATCAT no.:52939) had additional sensors and navigational aids (4 Sun sensors, Magnetometer, MRGPD and NavIC). It generated about 150 watts of power using non-deployable, fixed solar cells wrapped around PS4 tank. Six non-separable payloads facilitated by NSIL and IN-SPACe were hosted aboard.

  1. The ISRO Inertial Systems Unit (IISU) built the Relocatable Robotic Manipulator-Technology Demonstrator (RRM-TD), also called Walking Robotic Arm. With its seven degrees of freedom (DoF), it can move via inchworm motor to predetermined targets. It has robotic joints and arm controllers, a grappling mechanism and standardized adapter with power and data transfer, cameras for eye-in-hand operation, and software architecture with obstacle-aware motion planning and safety features installed on a high-compute processor. It will showcase a large workspace for in-orbit servicing. RRM-TD is the predecessor of upcoming robotic technologies for the Bharatiya Antariksh Station (BAS) which will help in end-on-end walking, microgravity operations, vision-based 6 DoF pose estimation, visual inspection of stages, robotic manipulation through visual servoing and compliance control, harness-free operation using power and data grappling fixtures, teleoperation and digital twin.{{Cite news |last= |first= |date=2024-12-22 |title=Experimental payloads developed by Karnataka-based academia and start-ups to be launched in ISRO upcoming mission |url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/bangalore/experimental-payloads-developed-by-karnataka-based-academia-and-start-ups-to-be-launched-in-isro-upcoming-mission/article69015941.ece |access-date=2024-12-28 |work=The Hindu |language=en-IN |issn=0971-751X}}{{Cite web |date=2024-12-23 |title=Isro is launching a robotic arm with Spadex in space.

  5. To evaluate the dependability and performance of a RoHS-compliant system in a microgravity, VSSC developed a lead-free environmental friendly DC-to-DC converter for Lead Exempt Experimental System (LEXS). For Gaganyaan, a MEMS-based angular rate sensor had been developed to check the high angular rates that the Crew Module would encounter in CARE, Pad-Abort, and Air-Drop tests. In addition to measuring angular rates along three dimensions, LEXS will examine the behavior of the rate sensor in space and verify its functionality.
  6. For conducting scientific experiments onboard sounding rockets, POEM, and spacecrafts, the Space Physics Laboratory (SPL) developed a programmable and configurable onboard controller Payload Common Onboard Computer (P-COC), that can interface with a variety of passive, active, and smart sensors and their front-end electronics. The Electron Temperature Analyzer (ETA), Langmuir Probe (LP), and the Electron Density and Neutral Wind (ENWi) are all controlled and operated by P-COC in IDEA-V2 payload of POEM-4. Ionospheric studies such as electron temperature and electron density of planetary ionospheres are measured in-situ using ENWi, LP and ETA respectively. Measurements of ionospheric properties are made possible by the arrangement of three cylindrical configuration in LP. The first LP in sweep mode can be used to determine the electron temperature, the second LP can be used to estimate the electric field, and the third LP can be used to estimate the absolute electron density. Along the orbit, two ENWi payloads will record electron and ion drifts in two perpendicular orientations. ENWi will detect electron density, irregularity, and electron drift in electron mode and monitor ion density, irregularity, and ion drift in ion mode.{{cite web |title=PSLV-C60 SPADEX Mission |url=https://www.isro.gov.in/media_isro/pdf/Missions/PSLVC60/PSLVC60-mission-brochure-english.pdf |access-date=28 December 2024 |publisher=ISRO}}
