As more satellites are sent into orbit, engineers are exploring ways to make them autonomous using artificial intelligence (AI), Euronews<\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

At a startup in a London-based laboratory, engineers are testing algorithms and robotic satellites to help satellites in space dock, refuel, and repair each other without human control.<\/p>\n

“We use AI for visual-based navigation,” said Haaris Khan, an engineer at the startup Lunasa. “This is kind of like a self-driving car. Whereas a self-driving car would drive itself on the road using AI, we use the same kind of AI in order to pilot satellites in an autonomous way.”<\/p>\n

The system works by teaching machines to interpret images and make decisions. Using cameras and sensors, a satellite estimates the distance and angle of its target, for example another spacecraft.<\/p>\n

AI then processes that information and generates instructions on how a satellite can move safely towards it.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
