India’s first Orbital Computing Satellite launched, will analyze images in space, time and cost of sending data will be reduced, helpful in everything from border surveillance to disaster.
India has achieved a new achievement in the field of space technology. Hyderabad based company TechMeetsSpace MOI-1A Satellite Has been launched. It is not only a satellite that takes pictures from space and sends them to Earth, but can also analyze data in space with the help of AI. SpaceX Transporter-18 Mission Launched at 11:48 pm under.
According to the company, MOI-1A is India’s first Orbital Computing Satellite Is. India with this capability It has become one of the few countries where the technology to process satellite data has been developed in space.
Sorting data before sending it to Earth
Usually, all the data received from the satellite is first sent to the Earth. After this it is examined and analyzed. This costs both time and money. TechMeetsSpace Of CEO Raunak Kumar Samant Rai According to , the new satellite can change this process.
If a satellite collects 300 GB of data and only 5 GB of it is useful, then AI can identify the necessary information in space itself. After this only useful data will be sent to Earth. This can reduce data transfer time and also reduce the cost of satellite communication.
Help in monitoring floods and farming
This technology can be used in many fields. Through satellite images Monitoring of flood, forest, crop, mining area and land. Can be done. For example, when a flood occurs, satellites will take pictures of the area and AI can help determine how much water has spread over the area. After this only necessary information can be sent to Earth. This can speed up the work related to relief and monitoring.
Space Data Center planned in 2028
TechMeetsSpace It has also announced plans to build a big data center in space by 2028. For this, preparations are being made to send high capacity satellites weighing about 100 kg each. The company plans to install a large number of Graphics Processors and about 100 Terabytes of storage in these satellites. The aim is to develop facilities for large-scale data processing in space by connecting many satellites.
