Microsoft AI Proposes OrbitalBrain: Enables Distributed Machine Learning in Space with Inter-Satellite Links and Strategies to Develop Constellation-Aware Services

Earth observation (EO) constellations capture many high-resolution images every day, but most of them do not reach the ground during model training. Downlink bandwidth is the main bottleneck. Images can remain in orbit for days while ground models train with partial and delayed data. Microsoft researchers have introduced the ‘OrbitalBrain’ framework as an alternative. Instead … Read more
