Funnel-based Docking

Funnel-Based Docking is a spacecraft docking system that employs a funnel-shaped guidance structure to passively align and capture a probe during rendezvous, distinguishing it from other docking mechanisms by enabling compliant, misalignment-tolerant connection through geometric constraint rather than active control or peripheral latching.
