Artificial Intelligence to control the Russian Orbital Station
The future Russian Orbital Station (ROS) plans to make extensive use of artificial intelligence technologies to manage core processes. The system will oversee everything from spacecraft docking to general station operations. This is reported by Ixbt.com reports .
According to Dmitry Gorshkov, Director of the Digital Transformation Department at Roscosmos, AI will be responsible for management and functionality. This will allow cosmonauts to focus on scientific experiments without being distracted by station control.
Leading representatives of Russian industry, specifically Sberbank (Sber), are participating as key partners in developing AI systems for this project. It is noted that such a level of automation has rarely been used in the practice of global space stations.
The core of the ROS station will consist of four modules: scientific-energy, universal docking, airlock, and base modules. Two additional specialized modules are planned to be connected later.
According to the plan, the Russian Orbital Station will reach its final configuration by approximately 2034. Work is currently underway on the system's software and autonomous operation algorithms.
