LONDON (Alliance News) - Allied Minds PLC Thursday said it will form a new company, HawkEye 360 Inc, which will use a group of small satellites to monitor and track ships, planes and other transportation networks and assist with emergency response.
The satellites will collect data, perform analytics and generate reports to a "broad range of customers."
"HawkEye 360's technology will allow for unprecedented analysis of wireless signals," said Vice President of Allied Minds John Serafini, who will be chief executive officer of the new company.
"Space-based detection of RF signals allows us to accurately locate and characterise difficult-to-visualize spectrum information in a way that's both global and timely. You can't do that terrestrially, and you can't do that with photos," Serafini added.
