The SpaceCubeX team is also developing a hardware proto-type of the heterogenous compute architecture, called SpaceCube 3. This proto-type will enable higher fidelity experimentation, realistic capture of ad-hoc processing required for autonomous operations and intelligent instruments, and support technology demonstrations.

Next generation instruments such as FluidCam and MiDAR will be used to initially drive and demonstrate the research. For more information about FluidCam and MiDAR, click here.
