How we started
FluroSat Business Presentation
“Inventing the Future”
Pilot Inter-Faculty Enterprise Course
…The challenge in this theme is to identify and prototype an application for nano-satellites that would benefit remote communities. The benefit could relate to local industry (agriculture, mining), education or to provide improved communications infrastructure, or any other application.
The University of Sydney has an existing program in nano-satellites, through the i-Inspire program.
University experts: Professor Iver Cairns, Dr Xiaofeng Wu; SpaceNet group.
