EraDrive solves pressing needs in space safety, performance, and defense at scale through one solution.
EraDrive solves pressing needs in space safety, performance, and defense at scale through one solution. These include applications such as space traffic management, on-orbit servicing and logistics, and advanced remote sensing.
Three principles separate flight‑proven autonomy from promising demos — and every EraDrive module is built on all three.
Rooted in cutting‑edge robotics and AI algorithms successfully deployed on distributed satellite missions — not a lab demo, but hardware that has already flown.
Scales to any mission profile — commercial or military — through a low SWaP‑C footprint paired with high‑performance onboard compute.
Runs with satellite buses, partner constellations, formations and swarms through standardized hardware and software interfaces.
Flight-proven autonomy logic that handles rendezvous and proximity operations safely.
Dual-camera AI vision system for automated target recognition and precise docking.
Standardized payload interface designed for seamless mission hardware integration.
EraDrive successfully demonstrates AI target recognition and distance estimation logic for satellite servicing and docking maneuvers.
Selected as a core technology provider for upcoming defense-led Space Domain Awareness programs focused on identifying objects in LEO.
EraDrive officially scales its Palo Alto R&D center, integrating advanced aerospace hardware labs with modern computer vision infrastructure.
