Sidus Space Partners with VORAGO Technologies to Test Microcontroller Technology

Sidus Space has partnered with VORAGO Technologies to test microcontroller technology. As a multi-faceted space and data-as-a-service satellite company, Sidus Space offers mission-critical hardware manufacturing, satellite design, production, launch planning, and in-orbit support. The partnership aims to leverage VORAGO's expertise in radiation-hardened microcontrollers for space applications.

Sidus Space, a prominent player in the space and defense technology sector, has entered into a strategic partnership with VORAGO Technologies to advance radiation-hardened microcontroller (MCU) technology. This collaboration aims to enhance Sidus' capabilities in delivering mission-critical solutions for both government and commercial sectors.

The partnership involves Sidus Space testing and integrating VORAGO's next-generation radiation-hardened MCU technology through the Alpha Customer Program. This initiative will enable Sidus to leverage VORAGO's expertise in creating high-performance MCUs designed to operate in extreme space and defense environments. The collaboration is expected to accelerate development and deployment cycles for Sidus' next-generation platforms while providing VORAGO with valuable real-world performance feedback to refine and optimize its technology [1][2][3].

Valerij Ojdanic, Chief Technology Officer at Sidus Space, commented on the partnership, stating that it aligns with Sidus' mission to deliver innovative and ruggedized systems for space and defense applications. Through the Alpha Customer Program, Sidus will receive early access to engineering samples, development tools, and dedicated technical support. The two companies will work together to advance the microcontroller through joint design reviews, software and hardware integration, and in-system validation, with the goal of transitioning to production-ready deployment by 2026 [1][2][3].

Bernd Lienhard, CEO of VORAGO Technologies, expressed excitement about the collaboration, noting that it represents an opportunity to push the boundaries of what is possible in space and defense. By combining VORAGO's radiation-hardened MCU technology with Sidus' agile and innovative platforms, the partnership aims to accelerate the deployment of resilient electronics capable of thriving in the harshest conditions [1][2][3].

This strategic partnership underscores Sidus Space's commitment to delivering full-stack solutions that meet evolving mission needs while advancing next-generation capabilities in space. Sidus' technologies, including ruggedized high-powered onboard computer systems, AI products and services, satellite manufacturing and technology integration, and space-based data solutions, are poised to benefit significantly from this collaboration [1][2][3].
