AI image classification for the Maya-7 CubeSat
Built and deployed AI image classification mission software for a Philippine CubeSat, fitting a neural network onto embedded satellite hardware.

Context
Maya-7 is a Philippine CubeSat mission. Satellites have tight limits on power, memory, and downlink bandwidth, so every image sent back to Earth is expensive.
What we built
AI image classification software for the mission: a neural network designed and optimized to run on embedded STM-class hardware on the satellite board.
Why it matters
Classifying images on board lets a satellite prioritize what it sends down. The same discipline of making models small, reliable, and verifiable under hard constraints carries into every edge and offline AI system we build.
