The growing congestion in space demands more sophisticated monitoring solutions. HEO is excited to announce Adler, our largest non-Earth imaging (NEI) camera, designed to meet this critical need. Adler delivers reliable, high-resolution insights for satellite monitoring, space sustainability, and a wide range of evolving space missions.
Adler is a high-performance imaging system that captures sharp, high-resolution images of satellites and other space objects. Its advanced, adaptable design is compatible with small to large satellites, making it suitable for diverse mission profiles. Using the fly-by NEI technique, Adler captures images while the host spacecraft remains in its fixed orbit, ensuring non-intrusive space object monitoring.
Adler's 194 mm aperture gathers significantly more light than previous systems, resulting in demonstrably clearer, sharper images from vast distances. This allows for more detailed analysis and better decision-making. Whether monitoring Low Earth Orbit (LEO) or Geosynchronous Orbit (GEO), Adler provides unparalleled high-resolution imagery and in-orbit solutions for both commercial and government customers.
Aperture Size: 194 mm – Collects more light for crisp, detailed images.
Resolution at 500 km: 1.1 m GSD – Captures high-resolution images from afar.
Compact Design: 480 mm length, 220 mm width, 224 mm height – Adaptable to various spacecraft.
100 Frames Per Second: Provides dynamic imaging and short video captures for deeper insights.
High-quality imagery is crucial for monitoring satellites, space debris, and other space assets in the increasingly congested space environment. Adler’s superior resolution and versatile design empower HEO to expand our sensor network and partner with a diverse range of space companies. Adler images enhance decision-making, improve risk mitigation, and directly support the long-term sustainability of vital space infrastructure. Integrated with HEO’s proprietary NEI tasking and delivery software, HEO Inspect, Adler provides crucial data for commercial, civil, and national security applications.
