AIKO

The main use case of the project is the orbital control and the visual navigation service of a small satellite approaching an asteroid. This project is important because it allows AIKO to gain more skills in the space navigation domain.
The consortium is led by AIKO, and AIKO is responsible for the AI Visual Navigation topics and for developing and testing the provided solution on an embedded hardware device (TRL4).
This project is important in AIKO because it allows us to consolidate and deepen the Visual Navigation topic.
