Inside the London lab simulating AI-controlled satellites
Inside a lab in London, engineers are testing algorithms and robotic satellites to help satellites dock, refuel, and repair each other without human control.

00:00Many people might not realize but anything to do with as small as just your
00:18GPS on your phone or your communications that you do through an internet or talk
00:22to your friend in another country. Everything is built around how space
00:26infrastructure is and if one of these satellites get out of their own orbit or
00:32get hit by another debris or anything, well we're gonna have problems on ground
00:37and that's not something that we want. So everything that companies like Lunasa
00:42are doing is mainly to protect that environment.
00:56We use AI for visual-based navigation. So this is kind of like a self-driving car. So whereas a self-driving car would drive itself on the road using AI, we use the same kind of AI in order to drive, to pilot satellites in an autonomous way.
01:16So this might be useful for servicing a satellite or refueling a satellite. If we have autonomous satellites going around doing these services, then it will enable the future of basically the space industry rather than having to do everything manually.
01:36It will enable the future of basically the space industry rather than having to do everything manually.
