HEO Robotics
We visually monitor space objects for governments and defense
We transform existing Earth observation satellites with software so they can image other satellites flying nearby. This lets governments and defense agencies track satellites visually without launching new hardware.
We live in Sydney, NSW, Australia, and plan to keep the company based here after YC.
Sydney is where we are based and have deep network ties. Being physically close helps because our work intersects with aerospace and defense communities here.
