Ubotica and NASA JPL demonstrate Dynamic Targeting on CogniSAT-6
Ubotica and NASA JPL demonstrated an onboard AI workflow that analysed look-ahead imagery and autonomously retargeted CogniSAT-6.
Evidence notes
- SPACE:AI processed look-ahead imagery and the planning software selected a cloud-free target without ground-station involvement.
- CogniSAT-6 reoriented and captured the selected follow-up image within a 60-to-90-second workflow.
- The test used a physical Open Cosmos-built CubeSat already operating in orbit rather than a simulation.
Company context
Ubotica develops SPACE:AI and Cognitive Earth Observation software for onboard satellite AI inference, enabling spacecraft to process imagery, detect events and support autonomous tasking at the orbital edge.
