D-Orbit has recently announced the signing of two significant launch service contracts with South Korean space startup TelePIX, signaling a notable collaboration in the realm of space technology.

Under these contracts, TelePIX will utilize D-Orbit's renowned expertise to embark on a mission critical for the future of satellite operations: the launch and in-orbit testing of its On-Board Processor (OBP), named Tetraplex. Designed to enhance on-board processing capabilities, Tetraplex represents a novel advancement in space technology, aiming to validate its performance and reliability in the challenging space environment.

Matteo Lorenzoni, D-Orbit's Head of Sales, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating, "We are excited to support TelePIX in their mission to advance on-board processing capabilities. This collaboration not only highlights the strengths of both companies but also reflects our shared vision for the future of space exploration."

The comprehensive scope of these contracts includes technical guidance for launch requirements, transportation, and the integration of Tetraplex into D-Orbit's renowned ION Satellite Carrier for the planned missions. D-Orbit's role extends beyond mere transportation; the company will oversee the entire process of launching Tetraplex into the target orbit and conduct in-orbit demonstration services.

A key aspect of Tetraplex's design is its edge computing capabilities, which stand to revolutionize the traditional satellite data processing paradigm. In the standard model, satellites collect data that is then transmitted to Earth for processing, a process often hampered by significant time delays. The introduction of Tetraplex aims to substantially minimize this data transmission, thereby reducing latency and markedly enhancing the efficiency of satellite operations.
