ELO-Hyp

In the project Efficient Learning and Optimization Tools for Hyperspectral Imaging Systems (ELO-Hyp) we focus on algorithm development for hyperspectral image processing. The project is carried out together with University Politehnica of Bucharest, University of Bucharest and Coltea Hospital. The project aims to create, analyze and implement efficient learning and optimization algorithms for hyperspectral imaging models with applications to ocean monitoring and medical imaging. Developed algorithms will be benchmarked using real datasets, to ensure the algorithms’ interoperability, and produce free software. Read more!

ESA Prodex for HYPSO-2 payload development

For the HYPSO-2 mission we have a project with the ESA PRODEX office, which is supporting the electrical and electro-optical development of the payload. This also includes requirements development support, so that the NTNU team can learn more about how ESA-projects are run.

Projects funded by Norwegian Space Agency

The Norwegian Space Agency supports research and development through various project activities. Brief descriptions are listed below.

• 2023 -- UltraBoB: Development of a new payload processor unit based on the Xilinx UltraScale+ platform. In collaboration with Tycho Space Technologies AS
• 2023 -- Pre-project HYPSO-3: Mission definition, initial instrument design. In collaboration with KDA
• 2022 -- Rocket catch: Investigation of technologies relevant for recovery of rocket parts of various sizes, by means of unmanned vessels. In collaboration with Andøya Space
• 2021 -- Satellite VHF interference measurement analysis and automation (SVIMA2​): We measured and analyzed on-orbit RF interfernece by utilizing the VHF receiver onboard the NorSat-2 satellite. Space Norway is our partner providing operations of the NorSat-2 satellite.
• 2021 -- FramSat-1: Together with Orbit NTNU we develop the FRAMSAT-1 satellite, which we aim to be the first Norwegian built satellite launched from the launch site at Andøya Space when this site is operational in 2022 or 2023.
• 2021 -- Project about joint observation of algal blooms with robotic vehicles and satellites.
• 2019 -- IoT over satellite for remote areas. In this project we studied the potensial of small satellites as communication nodes in hetrogenious sensor networks, mainly intended for use in remote areas with little existing infrastructure.
