Determine an accurate attitude for a space system usually requires multiple sensors. Nowadays, the attitude control systems are responsible for new features such as adaptability, autonomy, fault tolerance and self-adjustment.

AI algorithms can exploit the tons of data acquired during past mission to distinguish several situations by using the intrinsic information acquired directly by payload. Furthermore, these AI-based algorithm benefit from GPU acceleration, similarly to what GPU@SAT provides.

AI-based attitude control system running on GPU@SAT on board satellite can improve attitude quality providing multiple benefit to both payload (e.g., increased stability in case of optical payload) and system (e.g., improved pointing toward a precise point in space).
