A16 image

Overview

This satellite offers a modular design that can accommodate multiple customer payloads concurrently on a single platform, offering simultaneous hosting capabilities.


The A16 is specifically designed to support AI-driven payloads, enabling on-orbit data analysis and decision-making. With its high-performance computing capabilities, the A16 can process large volumes of data in space, significantly reducing the need for raw data downlink and improving overall mission efficiency.


The 8U-10U scalable payload space provides ample room for powerful computing hardware, allowing for the integration of advanced processors and memory systems. With up to 336Wh of power storage and 144W solar panels, the A16 ensures a steady power supply for computationally intensive tasks. The A16's focus on high-performance computing opens new possibilities for space-based applications.


Use cases for this platform include, but are not limited to, earth observation, on-board image processing, distributed computing across satellite constellations, autonomous decision-making for payload operations, space weather monitoring and technology demonstrations.
