Optera develops neuromorphic, event-based sensors and AI analytics that detect, track and characterise high-velocity objects in space. Its architecture reduces data and power requirements by orders of magnitude versus frame-based cameras, enabling persistent operations on the ground and in orbit. Optera is establishing its UK headquarters to serve its European customers. It is a new spin out from Western Sydney University in Sydney Australia.
