  • ARQUIMEA recently acquired 100% of Ecliptic with California State Department’ endorsement. The acquisition will support Ecliptic’s growth and accelerate new products development.

 

Logan, August 9th. ARQUIMEA invests $5M in Ecliptic to support growth and accelerate advancements in Ecliptic’s rad-hard cameras and space routers for lunar missions, multispectral high resolution optical payloads for Earth Observation and compact “smart” cameras for surveillance. Both companies highlight their technologies for the space sector in Small Satellite Conference that takes place in Logan, Utah until August 10.

ARQUIMEA recently acquired 100% of Ecliptic. With this acquisition, ARQUIMEA consolidates its penetration of the US market and adds a new product line of space subsystems and Ecliptic expands its capabilities and capacity to keep delivering for the top space programs in the US.

Mike Álvarez, CEO of Ecliptic “Ecliptic is deeply involved in the Artemis program and the investment will allow us to accelerate the transition of the products supplied to Artemis to other lunar or cislunar missions and customers. We are also excited to incorporate ARQUIMEA R&D capabilities in our products and to enhance the scope and geographical reach of our service and product offerings”.

The advancements in this product lines will be supported by Arquimea scientist and engineers developing state-of-the-art technologies in AI, robotics, quantum, and photonics. Arquimea technology infusion into Ecliptic’s products has started with the integration of deep learning methods for active fire semantic segmentation and for objects detection, tracking and identification into Ecliptic’s high-resolution multi-spectral payloads for low-cost and small satellites.

Attendees can visit the technologies of the company in the booth 217 in the fieldhouse.
