Fox2Space

THE FAULT TOLERANT SATELLITE COMPUTER ORGANIZATION

Our Solutions

Fox2Space provides the inevitable next generation of robust and failure-adaptive computers, enabling spacecraft and other critical systems to remain reliable even when hardware must change, components fail, manpower is scarce, supply chains become uncertain, and irreplaceable legacy electronics become unavailable.

Our technologies combine fault-tolerant architectures, hardware-independent system design, and scalable avionics platforms to enable reliable systems without dependence on specialized, rare or single-source components or suppliers.

Fox2Space solutions have been used to build spacecraft and other reliability critical devices that can be produced in volume, maintained through times of crisis, and adapted to changing mission requirements in the space, aerospace, defense, automotive, industrial control, and biomedical industries.

Ensuring Reliability Amid Disruptions

Modern high-rel computer systems must withstand operating for a prolonged time period in harsh environmental conditions, constantly challenged by rapid technological change, unstable supply chains, time and manpower constraints, and increasing mission complexity. Aerospace, space, defense, and other industries with high reliability requirements inherently face systemic supply chain risks. This Supply Chain Issue is systemic and common to all critical industries.

Long lead times, freshly changed or surprisingly formulated import restrictions in your region, new export restrictions on your supplier side, obsolescence, fabrication shutdowns, conflicts, and other geopolitical disruptions will essential components unavailable for years. This has happened several times already in the past years, due to pandemics, due to war, due to geopolitical struggles for national supremacy. You as vendor will have to cope with this systemic issue.

Fox2Space solves this problem by providing core avionics technologies that make computerized systems inherently independent from requiring one specific electronic part that can not be replaced without a redesign. Our technologies and our platforms enable both new and existing systems to operate reliably across changing hardware environments, and enables you to adapt your solutions to changing.

Adaptive Avionics

Adaptive Avionics is the foundation for the inevitable next generation of computer design for reliability critical applications. It is a set of technologies and methodologies developed by Fox2Space to enable supply chain robust, reliable computerized control systems that remain operational across changing hardware platforms, component generations, and supply conditions.

This set of technologies represents a platform provided by Fox2Space to its customers in a variety of forms: as ready-made compute platforms covering the entire embedded stack from topology to operating system software; as custom-tailored system design for clients who wish to manufacture and control their systems themselves; and as licensable IP.

On-Board Computer Platforms

Fault-tolerant, supply chain safe, mass-manufacturable avionics hardware for satellites up to 500 kg as well as UAVs and drones that form the backbone of your swarm, fleet, or constellation for reliability critical and long-term infrastructure missions in aerospace and defense.

Fox2Space provides integrated satellite on-board computers based on Adaptive Avionics technology. These systems combine high reliability, supply-chain robustness, and scalability, making them suitable for SmallSat application, larger constellations, and UAVs and drones that form the autonomous communication and control infrastructure of the emerging, fast paced technology landscape in an increasingly fragile global environment.
