What is Mechanically Driven Clamp Design Guide about?

The document describes a challenge to design a Mechanically Driven Clamp (MDC) to be mounted on a robotic arm aboard the International Space Station. The MDC must be able to (1) close around a handrail, (2) maintain a hold for up to 1 hour, and (3) release the handrail. It must meet specifications for size, sensors, timing, energy usage, safety, and environmental tolerances. A prize of $250 will be awarded for the lowest mass technically feasible design submitted by August 1st, 2018.
