In their fireside chat, EdgeCortix CEO Dr. Sakya Dasgupta and ispace US Chief Engineer Jeremy Fix explored how dual-use AI and edge computing are transforming both industry and space exploration.
They highlighted how modern AI hardware and software can upgrade legacy systems like satellites and rovers with autonomy, navigation, and advanced processing—without complete redesigns—making missions more accessible and cost-effective.
The discussion touched on key challenges such as power limits, radiation resilience, interoperability, and cybersecurity, while underscoring the role of open-source AI models and rigorous validation in space.
Both leaders emphasized the growing synergy between terrestrial and aerospace innovation, with their collaboration focused on deploying resilient, low-power AI hardware for cislunar missions and paving the way for greater autonomy and real-time decision-making on and around the Moon.
