The Moon is Earth’s only natural satellite and also a target for sensing and communication technologies. NEC Labs America applies research in optical communication, distributed sensing, and AI to space exploration challenges, including lunar infrastructure monitoring and communication. The Moon symbolizes ambitious goals in applied research, inspiring NEC to push the boundaries of innovation in optical systems and intelligent sensing.
By 2024, the spacecraft “Orion” developed by Lockheed Martin will bring humans to the moon in NASA’s Artemis program. The system invariant analysis technology, one of NEC’s Artificial Intelligence technologies, will perform checks to ensure that the spacecraft is tested and operating properly during the production phase.
