ESA and FDL explore cutting-edge space computing
In a series of world firsts, the FDL Europe programme in collaboration with ESA has achieved significant results in the field of Cognitive Cloud Computing in Space (3CS). In experiments on a D-Orbit InOrbit NOW satellite carrier mission on Unibap’s SpaceCloud computer, FDL Europe has shown how a Machine Learning (ML) payload can reduce downlink latency, easily adapt to different optical instruments and be updated directly in space, while enabling fast information extraction and delivery to end users. FDL Europe has also created an ML payload for third-party application hosting, launched on the D-Orbit Dashing Through the Stars mission in January 2022.
