Their partnerships with companies within Luxembourg’s space industry include SESRedwire Space, Spacety, Artec3D, Lift Me Off. Prof. Aouada has been leading the computer vision activities at SnT since 2009, and is head of the Computer Vision, Imaging and Machine Intelligence (CVI2) research group, head of the Computer Vision Lab and co-head of the Zero-G Lab .

Her team is comprised of a highly interdisciplinary expertise with input needed on materials science, structural engineering, manufacturing and robotics, alongside her main expertise computer vision.

For start-ups especially, having a team that encompasses all of these competencies from the get-go would be very difficult. Offering the ability for them to partner with us to have access to wider expertise not only enables them to fill their missing fields, but also allows them to focus their efforts on their main in-house specialty, said Prof. Aouada.

In her interview with Paperjam Magazine, Prof. Aouada explains how her research group has helped companies previously spezialising in terrestrial projects to succeed in space using computer vision technologies.
