The Herd
The Herd is a set of AI-powered algorithms designed to facilitate various data analyses. It comprises three elements – data pre-processing, data analysis algorithms and post-processing techniques.
Key applications
Earth Observation and Remote Sensing
Provides efficient processing for multi- and hyperspectral data, improving satellite imagery with tasks like semantic segmentation, object detection, classification, and super resolution reconstruction.
Satellite Telemetry Analysis
Enables real-time monitoring and analysis of satellite telemetry data, ensuring more efficient signal processing and anomaly detection.
Onboarding AI Models
Facilitates the deployment of AI models directly on satellite hardware, with robust verification processes ensuring reliability in performing tasks like image analysis and object detection during the mission.
Use cases
GENESIS (1&2)
- The project addresses traditional soil monitoring challenges by developing satellite-based solutions using hyperspectral imaging and machine learning algorithms for soil composition analysis.
- GENESIS project aims to enable continuous monitoring of soil parameters through the Intuition-1 satellite platform, offering potential for large-scale data collection without ground sampling requirements.
- The proposed system is designed to provide insights for agricultural management through space-based soil analysis, supporting more precise and sustainable farming practices.
Φsat-2
- The Φsat-2 mission demonstrates advanced AI capabilities in Earth observation through a 6U satellite equipped with a multispectral instrument, launched in August 2024.
- KP Labs developed a CNN-based algorithm for automatic cloud detection, optimizing data transmission by filtering out cloud-covered images before downlink.
- The project implemented 8-bit quantization to ensure algorithm efficiency within CubeSat hardware limitations while maintaining effective real-time image processing capabilities.
