HEO Inspect helps satellite operators and governments visually monitor their spacecraft and other space objects. HEO monitors these space objects using Earth observation satellites, which are transformed into in-orbit inspection cameras through HEO's software.
Thanks for hunting @mwseibel ! Hi Product Hunt, my cofounder @hiranyajaya and I are super pleased to unveil HEO Inspect. TL;DR The number of satellites is increasing 40x over the next decade and the level of satellite failures in-orbit is high (30-40% fail before the end of their designed life), leading to lost revenue and creating debris. HEO Inspect allows satellite operators to monitor their satellites visually and inspect external faults. The inspection images are taken from 25 (and counting
Not that many of us own a satellite that could make use of HEO Inspect but as someone who has looked into this product and talked to people in the space industry I can tell you it works, it meets a demand, and so far no one else does this. The immediate use case of low earth orbit sat inspection is followed by doing this for geostationary orbit (billion dollar satellites, further away and much harder to do) and eventually inspecting near earth asteroids of which there are about 1 million and abo
