Utilizing past satellite data (sea condition information, weather information) to support fishermen's operation decisions and avoid red tide damage in the aquaculture industry

Team Triton

The domestic fisheries industry faces challenges of declining fishing income, a decrease in the number of people employed in fishing, and aging workforce. To address these issues, utilizing satellite data (such as ocean conditions and weather information) along with an AI search engine to support fishermen's operational decision-making can contribute to smooth business succession and improved profitability.

Additionally, the aquaculture damage caused by red tides occurring annually over a wide range from Hokkaido to Kyushu amounts to billions of yen. Providing information on the movement and expansion of red tides through past satellite data and fixed-point observations can help prevent damages.

By employing satellite data and AI technology, the fishing industry can enhance its operational efficiency and resilience to challenges, thereby fostering sustainable growth and ensuring the continuity of this vital sector.


Cosmeceutical nutritional delivery for enhanced functional performance in space.

Whole.

Availability of high-quality and bioavailable nutrition will be essential to humans living in space for extended periods of time. Traditional methods of food processing result in large amounts of waste and spoilage, and the food outputs created are often poorly processed by the human body. In a space environment, where the ability to produce food is limited, it is critically important to maximize the efficiency of scarce resources. We have developed a unique processing technology that can achieve controlled high-pressure lysis of ingredient cells, unlocking maximum nutrition and enabling a wide range of unique cosmetic and cosmeceutical applications.


Circular utilization for clothing of the Lunar extended stay

Team LCDL

In the near future, Lunar extended stay is estimated to get into full swing. However, the expense of transporting goods to the Moon is estimated at around one hundred million Yen per kilogram. Therefore, the establishment of Luner circular environment by recycling technologies and material cycle for essential supplies like food and clothing to reduce the transportation costs. This project will provide clothing cleaning technology not depend on water in Space where water is difficult to obtain as first step to establish Luner circular environment.

ASTRID - Rethinking Spacecraft Thermal Design and Enabling Multi-Mission & Multi-Orbit Satellite Bus

SQUID3 Space

SQUID3 is developing a smart electronic coating system ("ASTRID") with E-ink that transforms satellite exterior into digital & programmable surfaces. Designed to tackle thermal management, on-orbit servicing, and sustainability challenges faced by next generation of satellites, our solution helps manufacturers achieve engineering cost-savings with shorter time-to-market, more flexible performance, and lower risks of docking & robotics operation.

ASTRID turns structural panels and radiators on a satellite into controllable and responsive elements to provide three unique capabilities: 1) Adaptable Thermal Control - tunes the satellite’s thermal profile in real time with a dynamic modulation range that corrects under- or over-performed components and, 2) Docking Visual Aid - displays digital fiducial markers to support on-orbit docking, servicing, and robotic arm operations, and 3) Stealth Mode - dims satellite visibility in the night sky to mitigate light pollution impacts.


World's First! Enchanting Your Aurora Experience with Level 3+ Brightness Aurora Forecasts

SAKI FUJINO

Purposefully enhancing travel experiences through space weather forecasting technology, we are launching an initial service that predicts aurora occurrences with a brightness level of three or higher. Leveraging solar observation satellite data and proprietary simulation analysis techniques, we can provide predictions for both the long term (up to three months in advance) and the short term (from 10 days prior to the event until the day of). This service aims to resolve the challenge of uncertain aurora travel experiences influenced by space weather conditions, making planned aurora excursions on visible days the norm, rather than relying on chance. To all industry professionals interested in experiencing this service, we look forward to your contact.


Construction of WSaaS based on Weather Satellites

Aithēr

We are focusing on meteorology as a new frontier in space. Leveraging Japan's expertise in the field of microwave technology, we aim to realize the first private-sector weather satellite in Japan, contributing to disaster prevention and mitigation against intensified natural disasters such as linear rainbands. Subsequently, combining unique insights from Japan, a nation prone to frequent natural disasters, with cutting-edge technologies like AI, we will develop a distinctive meteorological forecasting system. Finally, we will establish a novel weather service called WSaaS (Weather Satellite as a Service), providing customized data and information for each customer, thereby promoting the societal implementation of meteorology.


Update the Activities in Space: New era of sophisticated operations in space with AAGI

Team No Limits

Our team consists of medical professionals and engineers and we are working to support the daily activities of people with disabilities and promote their participation in society with ‘AAGI’ system, a non-contact switch. Now that civilian space travel has become a reality, the problem of space suits for extra-vehicular activities has come to the fore. Our technology solves the problems of movement restrictions caused by pressurization of space suits and the time required for the body to adapt the low pressure. Our efforts are aimed at developing safe and comfortable Japanese-made space suits using this AAGI technology, as well as supporting remote robot operations by people with disabilities and providing actual experiences of space travel.

Washing Machine in ZERO Gravity

KIKY

The era of civilians traveling and living in space has already begun. In the near future, the necessity to replicate the essentials of life on Earth - clothing, food, and shelter - in space is becoming increasingly critical. Among these necessities, the clothing currently used on the International Space Station is discarded into the atmosphere after use without being reused, posing a significant obstacle to sustainable space development. Therefore, we propose the development of a washing machine capable of functioning in a zero-gravity environment, aimed at constructing an 'ecosystem of clothing' that enables the reuse of clothes.

Mars Vegetable Production System

Space Wolffia

Our mission has been ongoing since Fall 2018 with the aim of supporting mankind's endeavor to establish a permanent presence on Mars by mid-2030. Our goal is to develop a space farming system that utilizes a small aquatic plant called 'watermeal' for future space exploration. The system can produce food, generate O2, scrub CO2, and treat wastewater, addressing one of the greatest challenges of interstellar colonization. Watermeal is the fastest-growing species, rich in nutrients, and is the smallest flowering plant, making it highly suitable for sustainable space farming in space exploration missions. This ambitious mission consists of two major goals: firstly, to develop a space farming system suitable for Mars' extreme environment, and secondly, to adapt the system for Earth applications during crises as a food security backup.
