Space as a Laboratory for Australian Innovation
online , AustraliaSeminar / Panel Discussion / ConversationEngineers are trained to see constraints as problems to be solved. In space, those constraints include radiation, isolation, distance, microgravity and extreme environments. Hear from Australian astronaut and 2026 Australian of the Year Katherine Bennell-Pegg on how these same challenges can be powerful opportunities for discovery, innovation and technological advancement. Katherine will showcase how the […]

[Engineers Australia Webinar] Perception and localisation for space robots
online , AustraliaSeminar / Panel Discussion / ConversationOperating robotic systems on the Moon and Mars presents engineering challenges unlike anywhere on Earth. Without GPS, reliable communications, or predictable environmental conditions, space robots must independently understand their surroundings, determine their location, and safely navigate complex terrain while operating in high-risk environments where failure is not an option. This webinar explores how researchers at […]
