Use artificial intelligence image recognition to determine orbital position. |
| Description |
Explore the feasibility of deploying artificial intelligence hardware in low earth orbit. Raise the Technology Readiness Level of commercial artificial intelligence hardware. Use artificial intelligence image recognition to determine orbital position. Developing revolutionary software for space-based neural networks. It is similar to traditional facial recognition software, except it will be processing images of the earth to determine the location the picture was taken at. Demonstrate commercial GPU hardware on a LEO platform. Develop a software suite utilizing the GPU to determine position and attitude of the satellite. |
