Hionos
Founder Valentin Brossard, Amin Elmrabti
Category Aviation
Location Grenoble, France
Product

Pulsar, a reliable drone autopilot system that fuses various data (gyroscope, accelerometer, GPS, barometer and magnetometer) for flight stabilization and automated navigation.
Pulsar Factory, a development framework to help OEMs create their own autopilot system using a set of software building blocks that can be adapted to their unique drone architecture with them maintaining sole intellectual property while keeping most of certification credits.

C4 Systems
Founder Tomer Orbach
Category Defense
Location Tel Aviv, Israel
Product

C4 Systems has developed a stand-alone augmented reality system for pilots that displays real-time mission information (waypoints, targets, joint forces, hazards, streets…) on a see-through display to aid decision making, optimize fleet coordination, and increase mission efficiency. The system is composed of AR displays, ground control station, and mission computers that connect ground, aerial, and maritime forces in real time.

Prime Lightworks
Founder Kyle Flanagan
Category Propellant-less electric propulsion for satellites
Location Culver City, CA
Product

Prime Lightworks is developing a RF resonant cavity thruster for satellite propulsion that could replace satellite propellant mass and conventional satellite propulsion systems. Prime Lightworks fully electric propulsion systems would increase satellite payload mass and orbital velocities, while lowering fuel emissions and launch costs to orbit. Satellites’ lifetime would be increased by making it only limited by their components failure, and not anymore by propellant capacity.

AnsuR
Founder Harald Skinnemoen
Category Enabling technologies
Location Fomebu, Norway
Product

AnsuR helps users communicate high precision visual content using a minimum of bandwidth. AnsuR software allows the receiver of audio-visual content to interact with the original data at the sender side, and focus network resources on sending operationally relevant content. Additionally, video encoders can adapt the rate of coding to unknown network capacity, using feedback from the receiver and finally allows senders to be connected to several types of networks simultaneously. Solutions specifically support mobile satellite communications.
