Revolutionizing Communications and ISR Across Land, Sea, Air, and Space
We proudly offer H.A.L.O., a long-duration, stratospheric balloon system that offers A.I. powered command and control coverage from anywhere in the world. This technology allows users to predict balloon flight path, hover and monitor above a fixed point on the ground, and safely navigate anywhere on Earth from stratospheric altitudes. The system is fully autonomous and can be managed from any mobile device, tablet, or computer worldwide.
Precision Data
HALO can capture 1,000 – 2,000 sq km of imagery per flight, efficiently capturing large ephemeral and episodic data sets at 10 cm per pixel resolution, allowing for improved data collection and high-quality geospatial imagery for any Earth science mission.
Surveillance & ISR
A quick-deploy solution designed to deliver long-duration flight at the maximum possible efficiency, HALO supports advanced, autonomous, multi-object data detection, recognition, identification, and target acquisition on any terrestrial surface from stratospheric altitudes.
Multi-Mission Capable
HALO is an autonomous, zero-emission, high-altitude robot that is capable of carrying payloads ranging from one pound to over ten tons, to altitudes up to 130,000 feet, with flight durations ranging from hours to months.

Tech Specs
Equipped with High Altitude Long Duration (HALO®) Technology
Depending on the mission and objectives, flight durations can range from a few hours to several months.
Maximum Flight Capacity (km) = 11,600
Mean Orbit Velocity (ft/h) = 1,055,000
Escape Velocity (ft/m) = 1,200
HALO is capable of carrying payloads ranging from one pound to over ten tons.
Near space begins at roughly 65,000 feet where the temperature is almost identical to Mars. HALO typically flies in this range, with altitudes ranging from 60,000 to 130,000 feet.
Direct + Indirect feature matching process with GCPs
Accuracy 5 m CE90.
From military ISR and surveillance to general earth science, HALO provides high resolution imaging for air quality monitoring, coastal zone and ocean monitoring, mapping of geologically active regions, forest and agricultural monitoring, polar region mapping, and more.
HALO is capable of holding a precise image in high resolution while traveling over a fast moving target.
HALO offers real-time in situ maneuverability and control to provide a precise station-keeping range of 87 nm (100 miles) or larger.
