Satlyt完成800万美元融资 开发卫星AI操作系统

由前谷歌和SpaceX产品经理Rama Afullo创立的Satlyt公司完成了800万美元的种子轮融资1。该公司致力于开发卫星AI操作系统软件，使多颗卫星能够共享空间计算工作，定位为卫星计算基础设施提供商1。此轮融资由总部位于休斯顿的Non Sibi Ventures领投1。

Satlyt的技术已有实际应用案例。该公司与Momentus合作部署了谷歌DeepMind的Gemma AI模型，将传输数据量减少了超过60%1。本周，Satlyt的软件将通过SpaceX火箭发射升空，与谷歌Project Suncatcher项目一同进行演示任务，客户包括NASA、Stellerian和TakeMe2Space1。公司总部位于美国加州Sunnyvale和肯尼亚Nairobi1，目标是在本年代末在20%的卫星上实现应用1。

Satlyt, a satellite computing infrastructure company founded by former Google and SpaceX product manager Rama Afullo, has raised $8 million in seed funding 1. The company has developed an AI operating system for satellites that enables multiple spacecraft to share computational workloads in orbit 1.

Afullo previously worked in Google's cloud computing division and at SpaceX's Starlink division 1. Non Sibi Ventures, based in Houston, led the funding round 1. Satlyt operates from offices in Sunnyvale, California, and Nairobi, Kenya 1.

The company has already demonstrated the effectiveness of its technology through a partnership with Momentus, where it deployed Google DeepMind's Gemma AI model and reduced data transmission by more than 60 percent 1. This week, Satlyt's software is scheduled to launch aboard a SpaceX rocket as part of demonstration missions for clients including NASA, Stellerian, and TakeMe2Space, working in conjunction with Google's Project Suncatcher initiative 1. The company aims to achieve adoption across 20 percent of all satellites by the end of the decade 1.
