Redwire Corporation (NYSE: RDW), a leader in space infrastructure for the next generation space economy, announced an expanded investment in its artificial intelligence (AI) strategy. The company is funding research projects through a newly formed coalition that focuses on the use of AI in space operations. Redwire is one of the founding corporate sponsors of The Center for AEroSpace Autonomy Research (CAESAR) at Stanford University. CAESAR represents a collaboration between industry, academia, and government, aiming to advance autonomous reasoning in space vehicles through AI, machine learning, and other disciplines. Redwire plans to leverage this coalition to enhance its AI investments, particularly in machine learning and computer vision, to autonomously detect, characterize, and navigate around objects in space.
"The outcomes of AI and space operations research will be tremendously valuable to our technology roadmap and advance our products, including space domain awareness capabilities for a range of customers," said Al Tadros, Redwire Chief Technology Officer. "AI-enhanced capabilities could be transformative for in-space servicing, GNC and RPO autonomy, and a range of complex mission requirements that Redwire is supporting for current and future missions."
Redwire intends to apply AI across its technology portfolio, which includes modeling and simulation, robotics technology, satellite servicing, intelligent vision systems, and future work on power management and avionics.
