April 9–11 | LIVE DEMOS of Project Space Cloud
Leveraging Satellite-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Provide Pertinent Data
Time: Multiple opportunities available
Location: Aerospace Exhibit #432, Lockheed Martin Exhibit Center
Today, there are approximately 1,800 operational satellites. Tomorrow, there will be 10 to 100 times as many—and the amount of data they gather will be exponentially larger. How do you find what you are looking for among that flood of data? Space Cloud is an AI deployment system that uses modern cloud technology to teach satellites to transmit only meaningful data. The AI instructs satellites to send just the images or videos requested—whether those of goats or boats—and discard the rest.
Aerospace experts: Dr. Joshua Train, chief ground engineer for Space Systems Group and Mikhail Tadjikov, director of Embedded and Specialized Computing Department.
