FastNeura Inc. and SpaceData Inc. have entered into a strategic business partnership. The two companies are working toward building an integrated platform that connects environmental data and human cognitive data in real time. The idea is to synchronize what is happening around people with what is happening inside the human brain.
Under this partnership, FastNeura and SpaceData will jointly develop new infrastructure meant to support and enhance human cognitive abilities across many situations. This ranges from everyday training environments to extreme conditions such as disasters or security incidents. The focus areas include defense, security, disaster prevention, and national resilience. The shared goal is to help humans maintain judgment and performance in environments where information is dense, fast moving, and stressful.
As AI moves closer to artificial general intelligence, machines are starting to outperform humans in specific cognitive tasks. At the same time, humans are being asked to process more information at higher speeds, especially in high risk situations. Cognitive overload is becoming a serious constraint. The partnership starts from the idea that this overload, not a lack of technology, is now a major bottleneck.

SpaceData brings digital twin technology that recreates Earth and space environments using satellite data. It also contributes its large scale physical AI platform called PROVIDENCE. FastNeura brings neurotechnology that estimates unconscious cognitive states using brain signals and biological data. It also works on methods to modulate those states to improve cognitive performance.
By combining these technologies, the companies aim to create what they describe as survival infrastructure. This is infrastructure that links environmental conditions directly with human cognitive states, so systems can adapt to people and people can perform better within changing environments.
In defense and security, the focus is on the cognitive domain. Threats today are not limited to physical attacks. They include information warfare and cognitive manipulation. By combining environmental simulation with real time cognitive monitoring and intervention, the partnership aims to protect human judgment and reduce vulnerability to cognitive threats.
In disaster prevention and national resilience, the companies are looking at systems that can shift smoothly between normal and emergency conditions. Examples include monitoring stress levels in evacuation shelters and adjusting lighting, sound, or information displays to reduce panic. Another use case is detecting fatigue in operators during long monitoring tasks and intervening before mistakes happen.
FastNeura CEO Shigehiro Mizuguchi said that as technology surpasses human capability, the human operating system itself needs to be updated. He said combining SpaceData’s environmental simulations with FastNeura’s cognitive technologies enables a two way form of intelligence, where environments adapt to humans and humans adapt to environments. He added that the partnership will push deployment first in areas like healthcare, defense, and disaster prevention.
Looking ahead, the two companies plan demonstration projects with Japan’s Ministry of Defense, the Self Defense Forces, and related organizations. They also plan to develop disaster prevention solutions for companies and local governments, and to contribute to academic research in cognition and environmental simulation. Over time, they aim to apply these deep technologies to national policy challenges and help build a new industrial foundation that connects human cognition, environmental intelligence, and space based data.
