UNSEENLABS - Experts & Thought Leaders

Unseenlabs, the world’s first radio frequency data and solutions provider for Maritime Domain Awareness, is announcing the successful launch of BRO-9, its ninth satellite.    It blasted into space as part of SpaceX’s Transporter-7 Mission from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. It successfully made contact with BRO-9 a few hours after the launch. RF data collection Since 2019, Unseenlabs has launched in orbit nine satellites to provide radio frequency (RF) data and solutions to its customers for the geolocation and characterisation of ships at sea.   By extending its satellite constellation, Unseenlabs will be able to increase its RF data collection capabilities and continue improving its solutions. BRO-9 “We were pleased to successfully partner with Exolaunch and SpaceX for this launch,” Jonathan Galic, CTO & co-founder of Unseenlabs, stated. “BRO-9 is operational, and we are looking forward to using its capabilities to continue upgrading our solutions for our customers.”   “We are thrilled that the launch was a success. It is another step forward in the development of our constellation, and more broadly of Unseenlabs. It will allow us to meet the growing demand for RF data and solutions,” Clément Galic, CEO & co-founder, said.

Unseenlabs, the European pioneer in radiofrequency (RF) signals detection from space, successfully launched its sixth and seventh satellites dedicated to the geolocation of vessels at sea on April 1st and May 3. In total, Unseenlabs has deployed seven satellites since 2019 and will launch other satellites in 2022. The technology embedded in the satellites enables Unseenlabs to provide accurate data for navigational risk assessment, vessel tracking, and searching and rescuing ships in distress. RF data analysis Unseenlabs’ constellation is designed to provide clients with data to follow maritime traffic, regardless of the time of day and weather conditions. Unseenlabs processes and analyses RF data, and provides unique knowledge for national security operations Unseenlabs processes and analyses this RF data, and provides unique knowledge for national security operations, environmental protection, and an increasing number of applications in the commercial sector. "Unseenlabs provides the most accurate possible RF data to its clients. Our clients and partners use this data to power analytics and find solutions for many industries," said Clement Galic, Unseenlabs CEO and co-founder said. Advanced independent satellites fleet To this day, Unseenlabs owns the world’s most advanced fleet of independent satellites for RF signal detection. The technology developed by Unseenlabs provides the most up-to-date maritime traffic data for their selected area of interest. The technology embedded in the satellites enables Unseenlabs to provide accurate data for maritime actors: ship tracking, route optimisation, environment protection, and searching and rescuing vessels in distress. In 2022 the French SME will be expanding its team based at its headquarters in Rennes, France. The aim is to extend Unseenlabs’ constellation dedicated to the geolocation of vessels at sea to up to 25 satellites around 2025.
