DESCRIPTION:Dr. Pablo Ghiglino\, CEO & Founder of Klepsydra Technologies\, 
 will be joining us for the Spring 2026 Aerospace Engineering Seminar Serie
 s on Friday\, March 27\, 2026. Please feel free to join for this talk. \n\
 n \n\nTopic: "AI for Smarter Satellites: From On-Orbit Experiements to Mis
 sion-Ready Software"\n\n \n\nAbstract:\n\nAs space missions become more co
 mplex\, satellites increasingly need to make decisions on their own. Artif
 icial Intelligence (AI) is moving beyond processing images from space or s
 upporting autonomous landing and navigation\, and is now becoming essentia
 l for building truly intelligent spacecraft. Future satellites and constel
 lations will rely on AI to manage power\, control their attitude and orbit
 \, and automatically detect and recover from failures—tasks that are dif
 ficult and costly to handle from the ground.\n\nThis work explores a pract
 ical way to run AI directly on space computers. Instead of relying on expe
 nsive specialized hardware\, we focus on running AI efficiently on the typ
 es of radiation-hardened CPUs already used in many satellites. Through sev
 eral activities funded by the European Space Agency\, we demonstrate how t
 he Klepsydra AI engine enables high-performance AI execution on space proc
 essors such as LEON and RISC-V systems. These developments bring us closer
  to a future where spacecraft can operate with much higher levels of auton
 omy.\n\n \n\n \n\nBio:\n\nOver 20 years of software development experience
  in the finance industry. Earned a PhD in Aerospace Engineering at the Sur
 rey Space Center\, in the field of high-precision planetary landing. Found
 ed Klepsydra in 2018 to apply advanced software and AI techniques from fin
 ance to space and embedded systems.
