Case Study: CNES achieves improved medical research imaging and remote tele-operation in space with TeamViewer

CNES improves medical diagnosis during a 6-month ISS mission with TeamViewer

CNES, the French space agency, partnered with TeamViewer to overcome the challenges of operating medical equipment and conducting research aboard the International Space Station. Their project required the ability to tele-operate devices from Earth with high-quality image transmission for medical diagnoses, all while working within specific network and data restrictions.

TeamViewer designed a private link solution that provided excellent image quality and instant response times for the probe. This allowed medical personnel on the ground to provide precise diagnoses, which identified a major change in astronauts' blood vessels after six months in microgravity. TeamViewer's solution revolutionized how space and ground researchers interact, advancing the understanding of the impact of space travel on humans.
