A floating AI assistant will join astronauts on the International Space Station

Siri cracked under pressure and Google doesn't have the right stuff, but CIMON should be mission ready by June.

A floating orb is expected to be the first AI assistant to help humans in space.

Let's get the low-hanging fruit out of the way: "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that."

Developed by Airbus in partnership with IBM, the Crew Interactive MObile CompanioN (CIMON, for short) weighs eleven pounds and will act as a kind of floating brain to assist astronauts during mundane mission duties.

Roughly the size of a basketball, the 3D-printed plastic and metal orb weighs 11-pounds on earth and runs a modified version of IBM's Watson.

Astronaut Alexander Gerst has been designated to test the device. During mission tasks aboard the ISS, Gerst will view procedures on CIMON's screen.

As the astronaut advances through the steps of the tasks, CIMON will track his progress and make suggestions on how best to proceed.

Like tabletop assistants, CIMON recognizes speech, has a synthetic voice, and is capable of some interaction. It's been trained to identify Gerst via facial and speech recognition.
