GalaxEye Space is a Bengaluru-based space tech startup specializing in a constellation of multi-sensor  EO (Earth Observation) satellites. The startup is collaborating with iDEX to develop a multi-sensor processing system for Indian Air Force satellites. The processing system will be built for miniature satellites that are capable of carrying a maximum payload of 150 kg. 

The company mentioned that this processing system will analyze the data from SAR, hyperspectral sensors, and Earth observation before transmitting it to ground stations. The company recently announced its plans to launch its first satellite Drishti mission after gaining access to the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Center. The device GalaxEye and iDEX are working on is designed as a pluggable module that can be easily maintained and attached to any multi-sensor satellite. This provides power efficiency, lightweight, high processing input, ease of maintenance, and compatibility with existing systems.

The technology is designed to efficiently handle the huge amount of generated data by low earth orbit imaging satellites while sticking to strict power, weight, and size constraints. The company ensures reliable system performance even during the unfavorable conditions of space. This Bengaluru-based startup can generate images with extremely high resolutions using its technologies and small satellite constellations. 

The startup claimsto have clients in countries including the US, Africa, Europe, and India. iDEX is under the Ministry of Defence and manages an independent defense innovation hub iDEX network. This partnership is an initiative towards the Make In India program and highlights GalaxyEye Space’s commitment and potential to strengthen its presence in the defense sector. This startup is working on and upgrading its in-house Drishti sensors and is aiming to launch it in the second quarter of this year.  Inc42 reported that the Indian commercial space tech sector is growing and is predicted to cross $77  billion by 2030.
