Exploring the limits of our solar system
Since the dawn of the Space Age, SRI has worked with NASA, the Department of Defense, and other government agencies and commercial clients to create and deliver technologies that contribute to the safety and success of space missions, and enhance our understanding of the universe and our world.Ā Ā
Our space technologies include compact sensors for uncompromising environments, small satellite payload and mission design, specialized signal processing and exploitation. Our geospace systems include advanced technology and systems for remote sensing, geolocation, communications, and space situational awareness. We also do device design; simulation and process development for high-performance devices and camera assemblies; read-out integrated circuits (ROICs) for custom-configured LIDAR; and more.
