Edge Computing Capabilities
Spacecraft operations face three critical challenges: latency (Earth-Moon is 2.5 seconds one-way, Mars is 4-24 minutes), connectivity blackouts (orbital mechanics, atmospheric entry, tactical EMCON), and bandwidth constraints (cannot stream raw sensor data). The KAIS Platform™ processes everything locally at the edge, transmitting only decisions and summaries when connected.
Designed for space environments, our platform operates in extreme conditions while maintaining low power consumption. From LEO spacecraft autonomy to tactical edge computing to commercial remote systems, the KAIS Platform™ delivers reliable autonomous operations where traditional AI fails.
TECHNICAL CAPABILITIES:
-
Power Efficiency: 5-15 watts typical, optimized for spacecraft power budgets
-
Environmental Hardening: -40°C to +85°C, radiation-tolerant, vacuum-compatible
-
Minimal Footprint: <1 GB memory, deterministic real-time processing
-
Zero Connectivity Required: autonomous operation during communication blackouts
-
Flexible Integration: compatible with spacecraft flight computers and COTS embedded systems
Edge vs. Cloud AI: Cloud AI requires constant connectivity, massive data transmission, and centralized processing—limiting application to environments with reliable communications. The KAIS Platform™ delivers autonomous intelligence directly where operations occur, enabling mission success in contested, remote, or space environments where cloud dependency equals mission failure.
