Los Angeles CA (SPX) Nov 03, 2024

Sidus Space (NASDAQ: SIDU), a leading provider of space solutions, has announced a significant upgrade for its LizzieSat platform, incorporating Iridium-enabled technology to deliver enhanced low-latency data transmission capabilities. This integration will enable future LizzieSat satellites to utilize the Iridium constellation for real-time direct-to-satellite communication, supporting applications in environmental monitoring, disaster response, and maritime security.

The enhanced communication system, driven by Sidus' AI-powered FeatherEdge processor, makes Sidus the only provider of small-form rapid data transmission services in the commercial space industry. It aims to reduce dependency on traditional infrastructure by providing an uninterrupted data stream even during network disruptions. The upgrade also includes geofencing capabilities, allowing targeted data delivery to specific regions and enabling ground teams to query LizzieSat in real time for specialized updates via its sensor array.

"This breakthrough solution is designed to meet the urgent needs of customers who depend on time-sensitive information for decision-making," said Carol Craig, CEO of Sidus Space. "This upgrade demonstrates our commitment to rapid innovation, flexible, cost-effective solutions and enhanced situational awareness across critical sectors."

The company has partnered with Global Satellite Engineering for the integration, providing design and support services for the Iridium solution. Jeffrey Palmer, Director at Global Satellite Engineering, commented, "We are excited to continue innovation in satellite IoT technology by partnering with Sidus as they expand their capabilities and reach into new markets."

This integration underpins Sidus Space's vision of "Space Access Reimagined" and paves the way for expanded opportunities in data-centric markets, helping customers achieve better situational awareness and access critical real-time information with ease.
