Making Satellites Autonomous
for satellite integrators and operators to enable the next step in in-orbit capabilities
Tools that enable autonomy
Mission Design Simulator
The simulator is comprehensive virtual environment where users can prototype and test their entire space mission in real-time using one software package.
RPO Kit
The RPO Kit is a COTS plug-and-play spacecraft payload designed to autonomously perform complex navigation manoeuvres. Leveraging advanced vision-based target identification and tracking.

Partners
We have successfully completed multiple contracts with the European Space Agency to develop the Mission Design Simulator and RPO Kit products. ESA acts as key technical authority, making sure our products are built for real space environment.
The SnT team from University of Luxembourg is our main partner in bridging the gap between research and industry in order to commercialize autonomous and robotics technologies for space application.
World class researchers from the University of Adelaide are helping us improve our Deep Learning algorithms – a crucial part of our RPO Kit system.
We have integrated state-of-the-art TU Delft Astrodynamics Toolbox (Tudat). Which provides a powerful set of libraries that support our Mission Design Simulator orbits propagation.
