Falcon is Colossus Computing's most advanced GPU platform for demanding workloads.
Efficiency
Filtering, prioritizing, and compressing data allows more efficient use of limited bandwidth by sending data products instead of raw data.
Speed
Data products can be small enough to allow transmission through satellite-to-satellite networks in seconds instead of waiting hours for a traditional ground station pass.
Autonomy
On-board processing enables satellites to make intelligent decisions without waiting hours for commands to be uplinked from the ground. Satellites can respond instantly to changing circumstances.
