NASA's Perseverance Rover Uses AI for First-Time Autonomous Rock Analysis
Jul 17, 2024, 06:12 AM
NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover Mission has achieved a significant milestone by using artificial intelligence (AI) to make autonomous decisions based on real-time analysis of rock composition. This marks the first time the mission has employed AI in this manner, enhancing the rover's ability to conduct adaptive sampling using its PIXL instrument. The AI technology allows the rover to independently identify and analyze minerals in rocks, streamlining the data collection process and improving the efficiency of the mission. The Rover Mission has been using AI for nearly three years.
