Saber Astronautics releases new spacecraft constellation control and automation software SABER COMMANDER

Published

on

SYDNEY, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Saber Astronautics today announced the release of Saber Commander, its new spacecraft and constellation operations software.

Saber Commander builds on the operational heritage of the Predictive Ground station Interface (PIGI), recognised in the space industry for pioneering techniques in digital twin and machine learning to manage individual satellites. Saber Commander preserves that foundational heritage while supporting increasingly complex satellites, constellations, and mission requirements in the modern space age.

Originally developed in 2010 and released in 2012, PIGI pioneered new capabilities as Saber’s flagship operations software. Listed as a NASA Spinout, it was the first product globally to successfully solve spacecraft diagnostics using machine learning, allowing operators to learn the root cause of health problems on a spacecraft. 

PIGI represented a new generation of software leading efforts to visualise satellite constellations and was the first Unity game engine digital twin to receive fielding authority by the US Space Force.  This eventually led to the production of Saber’s Space Battle Management System (SBMS) which now serves as the protect-and-defend tool accepted across US Space Force Combat Command Deltas.

“PIGI was about reducing the barrier to entry to satellites, making it easier and safer to fly” said Dr. Jason Held, CEO of Saber Astronautics. “Saber Commander carries that heritage forward, with new automation, visualization, and operational scale that modern satellite constellations require.”

Developed in close collaboration with Saber’s own satellite operators, Saber Commander reflects the company’s direct operational experience through its Responsive Space Operations Centres (RSOC), in Australia and the United States. Saber currently controls 36 tonnes of spacecraft in orbit, giving the company daily exposure to the real pressures faced by mission teams.

That experience shaped Saber Commander around practical needs: faster situational awareness, clearer decision support, reduced manual workload, and automation.

 “Saber Commander takes everything we learned from our first generation of products and turned it into a platform built for the realities of modern space operations,” says Chris Schuck, Head of Product Engineering. “Larger fleets and congested orbits demand a smarter approach. We designed Commander hand-in-hand with operators to bring automation, commanding, monitoring, and situational awareness together into a single platform to reduce operator workload while giving greater confidence and control. I’m incredibly proud of what our team has built, and excited to see what our customers achieve with it.”

By

SYDNEY, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fox ESS, a global leader in renewable energy solutions, has announced the Australian launch of POWER BEAST, a scalable commercial and industrial energy storage solution combining the H3 Plus Hybrid Inverter with the CQ7 High Voltage Storage Battery.

Traditional commercial battery systems often require extensive cabling, multiple connection points, and significant on-site assembly, “POWER BEAST combines a compact dual-stack design with fast, plug-and-play installation, reducing system height and installation complexity,” said Brooks Richard Geng, APAC & Middle East Managing Director at Fox ESS. “By integrating the H3 Plus with the scalable CQ7 platform, we are helping partners lower costs, save space and deliver C&I projects with greater confidence.”

POWER BEAST is built around the H3 Plus Hybrid Inverter, the modular CQ7 High Voltage Battery and the optional CQ7 Dual Tower Base. Available with AC output from 50 kW to 125 kW, the H3 Plus supports up to three independent battery inputs.

When paired with CQ7 batteries, a single inverter can support up to 292 kWh of storage capacity. Multiple POWER BEAST systems can scale up to 3.125 MW / 7.35 MWh for on-grid applications and 1.25 MW / 2.94 MWh for off-grid applications.

For projects targeting the NSW PDRS BESS4 capacity range, one H3 Plus 100 kW inverter paired with two CQ7 battery stacks provides approximately 195 kWh of storage capacity, allowing projects to maximise potential incentive value.

A key feature of POWER BEAST is the CQ7 Dual Tower Base, which supports two battery stacks on one shared base and keeps system height under 1.3 m. Pre-installed power and communication connections simplify installation and reduce wiring risks, while the system integrates solar PV, battery storage, EPS backup, generator and EV charging, with approximately five-second module installation.

By combining the H3 Plus Hybrid Inverter, modular CQ7 storage and the Dual Tower Base accessory, POWER BEAST provides installers, EPCs, distributors and project partners with a scalable C&I platform designed to reduce installation complexity and make more efficient use of available space.
