Stratostats®: A Pseudo-Satellite Platform for Sustainable and High-Resolution Earth Observation
Involve presents Stratostats®, a pseudo-satellite platform that leverages stratospheric balloons for high-resolution Earth observation, sustainable atmospheric research, and real-time data collection. Operating at 30 km altitude, Stratostats® delivers imagery with 1m/pixel resolution, five times sharper than traditional satellites, while maintaining station-keeping through proprietary AI software, Neurostar®. This platform provides a cost-effective, emission-free alternative to satellites and drones, with full payload recovery after each mission.
