Aethero is a new startup promising "edge computing" AI systems in satellites. "The next generation of space rated edge computing".
"Aethero's onboard software includes a thin, headless system containing a minimal set of packages and tools needed to boot the system. The onboard system will allow you to run containerized applications and will provide services such as Over the Air software updating. The Over the Air testing or updating and fleet management or system level testing is accessed through Aethero's unified Aether Software. We provide an automated framework for platform testing; it includes support for the Hardware, Board Support Packages and Software -- this allows users to develop, debug and test multi-node device systems reliably, scalably and effectively."
"Users can use Aethero's AMATDT (Automated Model Annotation, Training & Deployment Tool) that is integrated within the Aether Software to customize models deployed on Aethero's Edge Computing Modules. Current imagery support includes RGB, Multispectral, and Hyperspectral data."
This is tailored to Aethero's hardware.
"Aethero is leveraging standard architectures such as the CubeSat or PC104 framework, state-of-the-art radiation-hardened commercial components, and modern software operating systems to provide a high performance, highly capable single board computers, or multiple redundant or distributed computing configurations. The versatile architecture means that the system can be used for a variety of applications such as Autonomous Spacecraft Operation, Machine Vision Operations such as [VPS] Visual Positioning Systems or Optical Navigation, Imagery Processing ([UV/EO/IR] Ultraviolet/Electro-Optical/Infrared, [MSI] Multi-Spectral, [HSI] Hyperspectral, [SAR] Synthetic Aperture Radar, [LIDAR] Light Detection and Ranging, [TIR] Thermal Infrared), [RF] Radio Frequency Signal Processing such as Link-Budget Optimization, Video/Image processing such as Manipulation or Segmentation, Object Detection with Classification, [AI] Artifical Intelligence/[ML] Machine Learning Applications, [SDR] Software Defined Radio, Data Compression/Management, etc."
