Description
Blackswan Technologies is building autonomy in space. While developing autonomous navigation and space robotics technologies, we have realized that all the currently available tools for training and testing autonomous space missions are lacking. Thus, our team has started developing the Mission Design Simulator (MDS) to enable rapid prototyping without the need to use multiple software packages as well as generate synthetic data for training DL models, CV algorithms, and provide a standardized framework for autonomous mission design and testing.
In this talk we will present an in-orbit servicing scenario that was built with MDS and discuss how the software can help other teams developing their IOS and debris removal missions in their early phases and beyond.
