Meet Little Place
OUR STORY
Little Place Labs was formed in 2020 with deep roots at the University of Oxford. We all love space and tech, and share the passion of building solutions to improve people’s wellbeing, help the environment and change the world for the better.
OUR VISION
Today’s satellites capture huge amounts of raw data but downlink is slow and only minimal onboard processing is done. It therefore takes way too long to get meaningful insights on time-sensitive events like natural disasters, Illegal activities, defense, etc. We strive to break this bottleneck and make delivery of insights to decision-makers and responders in near-real-time.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
We build software applications utilizing advanced machine learning techniques that can be deployed on remote sensing satellites optimized for the Space environment, aka “Satellite Edge Computing” and will allow raw data to be processed immediately as it is captured, and insights to be developed in orbit.
