HawkEye 360 is using BitRipple‘s networking technology to allow for large data deliveries from low Earth orbit satellites to ground units.
BitRipple said Tuesday its Liquid Networking technology works to enable HawkEye 360’s geospatial satellites to send large volumes of data without requiring a backchannel.
The technology converts data into a digital “liquid” form intended to bypass network limitations and allow for ultra-low latency transmissions.
Chris Gregory, vice president of engineering at HawkEye 360, said BitRipple’s technology can allow for data transfers even over unidirectional channels and under difficult network conditions.
HawkEye 360 maps radio waves and delivers radio frequency geospatial intelligence through a constellation of LEO satellites.
