About Fox2Space
Fox2Space develops and manufactures fault-tolerant on-board computers (OBCs) and adaptive avionics platforms for satellites, spacecraft, UAVs, maritime platforms and safety-critical infrastructure. The systems are based on open standards and a modular architecture, reconfigure in real time and remain operational even if individual components fail – under extreme temperatures, vibration, shock loads and radiation. The company offers hardware solutions, OEM/ODM partnerships, licensing of proprietary technologies as well as design services for custom redundant computing solutions. Founded by experts in electronics reliability, fault tolerance, security and small satellite development, Fox2Space works with satellite operators, aerospace primes, marine and defense companies and infrastructure providers. The company is operationally present in South Africa (HQ), Europe and the USA and serves customers worldwide.
