AICRAFT and  ResearchSat have signed a Memorandum of Understanding

The companies have signed a MoU to utilise edge computing technology to assist with biological and scientific experiments in orbit.

AICRAFT and ResearchSat will work together to utilise edge computing modules designed and manufactured by AICRAFT to facilitate onboard data analysis and data reduction of biological experiments conducted by ResearchSat in orbit.

The objective is for AICRAFT to supply tailored edge computing devices to support in-orbit management of biomanufacturing computational workloads as ResearchSat scales up and diversifies its operations. ResearchSat offers microgravity satellite services for medical and material sciences research to improve development by examining material, chemical and clinical properties with the benefits of being in space. The two companies are planning a sub-orbital demonstrator mission in December 2024.

Both companies are graduates of the Venture Catalyst Space incubator program delivered by the University of South Australia’s Innovation & Collaboration Centre (ICC).
