Researchers have developed AquaCubeAI, a lightweight machine-learning model designed for onboard estimation of coastal water turbidity using data from the Φsat-2 satellite. This approach aims to reduce latency by processing data directly on the satellite, enabling more responsive monitoring of water quality events. The model, a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), was trained using simulated Φsat-2 imagery and Copernicus Marine Service data, with a focus on generalization across different European marine regions. Feasibility was further demonstrated through deployment on an Intel Myriad Vision Processing Unit, confirming its potential for low-power, embedded systems. AI
IMPACT Enables real-time water quality monitoring from space, potentially improving environmental response times.
