Matthias Biniok, an engineer for chip maker IBM and one of the lead architects behind CIMON’s artificial intelligence.CIMON will verbally communicate step-by-step instructions to Gerst during three planned science experiments on the space station’s European module. Currently, astronauts read these instructions from a laptop, which Biniok says is an arduous process that a responsive, hands-free companion like CIMON can replace.Now its developer's  main mission is to support the astronauts with their daily tasks to save time, because time is the most valuable and most expensive thing on the ISS.
