NordicSI Advanced Projects
Some challenges need a new approach.
For problems that extend beyond an existing product, we explore what is feasible, model the constraints, and develop a path towards a meaningful demonstration.
Challenge areas
Where familiar assumptions stop working.
Space & off-world systems
Questions involving lunar or Martian infrastructure, remote operation, resource constraints, and unfamiliar environments.
Extreme environments
Systems intended for conditions where access, maintenance, communications, or human intervention may be limited.
Novel industrial systems
New combinations of models, materials, machines, and autonomy that require investigation before a conventional implementation can begin.
How partnerships work
Make the question testable.
- 01
Frame the challenge
Define the objective, operating environment, constraints, and unknowns.
- 02
Investigate feasibility
Examine assumptions, available evidence, possible approaches, and the limits of current methods.
- 03
Model & prototype
Develop simulations or prototypes that test the most important uncertainties.
- 04
Demonstrate & decide
Evaluate what the work shows and decide whether to develop, revise, or stop.
