Bengaluru start-up tests Synthetic Aperture Radar tech on NAL’s Pseudo-Satellite

City-based space technology start-up GalaxEye has successfully tested its Synthetic Aperture Radar technology on a subscale High Altitude Pseudo-Satellite developed by the National Aerospace Laboratories. At the stratosphere, SAR emerges as a pivotal technology for all-weather, all-time imaging, hence overcoming the challenge of cloud cover, which impedes traditional electro-optical cameras “The rigorous test flights undertaken have provided invaluable insights, paving the way for further R&D endeavours. Our focus remains on optimizing SAR with low SWaP characteristics, unlocking unique phenomenology,” said Suyash Singh, Co-founder & CEO of GalaxEye Space. An NAL spokesperson said SAR technology is vital for HAPS, and GalaxEye’s drone-based SAR capabilities show promise for integrating such systems into HAPS.
