Ideas funded by ESA in February 2021:
- Boosting local sleep in astronauts: a possible way out of attentional lapses
- Hierarchically structuring space systems from the nano to whole component scale using synchrotron
tuned additive manufacturing
- Development of a multi-material additive manufacturing machine
for space hardware using localised heat to debind and sinter fused filament fabricated parts
- AI powered cross-modal adaptation techniques applied to Sentinel-1 and -2 data
- Towards explainable AI4EO: a new frontier to gain trust into the AI
- Improving the synergy between Earth- and space-based data for Galilean satellite ephemerides
