Post: TelePIX sends AI processor for satellites to space

Seoul, South Korea's space startup TelePIX has sent an onboard artificial intelligence (AI) processor for satellites into space. The processor, named TetraPLEX, was delivered on an Italian satellite aboard SpaceX's Falcon 9 into orbit last Friday, according to the company. TetraPLEX enables efficient, on-the-spot data analysis directly within the satellite, allowing AI processing and edge computing in space. With this launch, TetraPlex will demonstrate high-speed parallel processing of big satellite data AI models in real time, and test satellite image pre-processing algorithms and its stability in a radiation-accumulating environment, according to the South Korean News Agency (Yonhap). "Through this demonstration in space, TelePIX has secured space heritage, laying the foundation for the company to enter the global space market," said Kim Seong-hui, chief technology officer at TelePIX.
