1. Sense
An onboard inertial measurement unit (IMU) continuously tracks the platform’s orientation and motion, providing live pitch and roll data.

ShiftCore MK1 in development
Active stabilization
for small satellites and payloads.
Sevia Technologies is building ShiftCore – a compact, affordable active stabilization platform that keeps small payloads stable in harsh launch and test environments.
Form factor
Compact 3-axis platform
Target performance
< 5° orientation deviation*
Use cases
CubeSats • Lab payloads • Hardware-in-loop
*Target specification for MK2/MK3. MK1 is a functional proof-of-concept platform.
How ShiftCore works
From disturbance to stable payload in milliseconds.
ShiftCore is a self-contained stabilization module. Mount your payload to the top platform, connect power, and the system handles the rest – sensing motion, computing corrections, and driving actuators to keep your payload level.
2. Compute
An embedded controller (ESP32) runs tuned control loops, comparing the measured orientation to the desired setpoint and computing corrective action.
Closed-loop PID
On-device tuning
3. Actuate
Dual servo-driven linkages adjust the platform angle, countering disturbance from vibration, motion, and handling to keep the payload stable.
Dual-axis actuation
Compact linkage
Company & roadmap
Building an aerospace-grade platform from day one.
Sevia Technologies is focused on one thing: building a stabilization platform that small satellite and payload teams can actually afford and integrate.
Who ShiftCore is for
CubeSat teams, university labs, and emerging aerospace companies launching small payloads that need reliable, predictable stability without oversized or overpriced hardware.
CubeSat teams
Student & research labs
New space startups
Why we exist
Existing stabilization systems are geared toward larger, expensive payloads. Small teams often fly with no stabilization at all. ShiftCore is designed to change that, creating a new layer in the stack for small hardware.
