A major factor in how Chandrayaan 3 flew and landed was AI working with important sensors.

Artificial intelligence (AI) was instrumental in making the Chandrayaan 3 moon landing mission possible for the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). Artificial intelligence refers to intelligence demonstrated by machines rather than human intellect.

 

Many Indians around the Nation are celebrating the landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the moon. In addition to becoming India the first nation to reach the lunar south pole, this accomplishment attracts the interest of several space organisations that are curious about the water ice potential. But did you know that Artificial Intelligence  significantly aided the moon landing project of ISRO.

 

• A Safe Moon landing was made possible in large part by AI-driven sensors.
• This makes India To become First country who reached the moon's lunar south pole.
• The Ai-driven sensors played a huge role behind the success of chandrayaan-3’s landing on the Moon.

 

In a wide range of sectors, AI is quickly becoming a vital tool; space exploration is no exception. Rapid data analysis, predictive insights, autonomous navigation, mission operation optimization, anomaly detection, and other benefits are made possible by the technology. Similar to other space missions, AI has played a significant role in India's Chandrayaan-3 project.

 

In order to ensure a safe arrival on the lunar surface, the AI-driven sensors were crucial. By anticipating lunar topography, seeing possible dangers, and effectively navigating its   descent, the technology assisted the lander in reducing risks and boosting safety.

 

S. Somnath, the chairman of ISRO, announced a technical advance by Emphasising a sensor array made up of velocimetry and altimeters. The lander's speed and altitude are crucially measured by these devices, and a variety of cameras, including a hazard avoidance camera and inertia-based cameras, take important pictures. Advanced computer techniques are used to smoothly combine these data streams and provide a detailed picture that shows the exact location of the lander.

 

AI will also be useful when the rover is exploring the moon. AI algorithms will offer direction in terms of detecting and mapping fascinating lunar features and determining the rover's most effective path for exploration. AI will take centre stage in the analysis phase as the spaceship gathers priceless data. AI will assist in bringing insights that could be hidden using conventional methods.

India has become the fourth country to accomplish this after the US, Russia, and China with the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3. According to ISRO, the mission's three main objectives are to show off a safe and soft lunar surface landing, show off a Rover's mobility on the lunar surface, and carry out in-situ scientific research. Following the ground-breaking Chandrayaan-2 project, which attracted worldwide notice for its extraordinary contributions to space exploration, this is ISRO's widely anticipated third lunar research mission.
