SpaceChain Callisto

Programmable hardware board that allows you to develop blockchain applications and deploy it in space.

Turning Your Blockchain App Ideas Into Reality

Have a great idea for a blockchain application that can be used in space? Turn your dream into a reality with our open-source demo hardware board – SpaceChain Callisto.

It is pre-installed with a dual operating system: SpaceChain operating system (SPC OS) and Linux OS ━ to enable developers, like you, to design on-orbit blockchain applications that can be used and deployed in space.

What Makes Callisto Unique?

Callisto is configured to be similar to our on-orbit payload that was installed in the International Space Station (ISS) in December 2019.

While the application is not connected to the ISS, you can still do the following:

Create your dream application
Run tests and simulations through your computer
Evaluate if your application will actually work in space

Best of all, it is open-source, enabling you to develop your blockchain applications more easily.

Specifications

SpaceChain Callisto is equipped with ZYNQ FPGA and integrated with a power supply system, DDR, NAND flash, TF card and Ethernet.

The hardware board comes with 42-pin I/O ports, allowing advanced users to use Vivado to program the board and include functions such as UART, I2C and CAN.
