SpaceWatch.Global An independent perspective on space
Unseenlabs is a French company based in Rennes, Brittany, and founded in 2015 by the Galic brothers. At the GEOINT 2024 , Torsten Kriening spoke with Clement Galic, CEO and Co Founder about the unique idea of RF detection services, use cases and future development.
Unseenlabs has developed a new technology using radio frequency signals detection − or space-based RF detection − to geolocate vessels whose emitters are turned off. Unseenlabs uses satellites to provide data to its private and public customers (governments, shipping companies, NGOs, shipowners, etc.) worldwide.
Unseenlabs’ satellite constellation specifically detects, characterizes and geolocates RF signals coming from a wide range of emitters. It covers sea areas of hundreds of thousands square kilometers. Since the launch of BRO-1 (BRO stands for Breizh Reconnaissance Orbiter) in 2019, 10 other BROs blasted into space – and two more will be launched NET March 2024 – what makes it 13 as of 7 May 2024. The aim is to extend the constellation to up to 25 satellites in 2025.
