Among them, the most notable in the market is the commercial optical satellite with a high resolution of 0.5 meters, priced at only USD990,000. The Group also plans to offer nearly a hundred types of satellite components and application services, including separation seats, multi-satellite dispensers, and 0.5-meter resolution lightweight cameras.
The Group is confident that through this series of satellite products, it can directly participate in the competition of the global commercial aerospace market, rapidly enhance its brand awareness, significantly expand its customer base and further increase its market share.
The growth potential of the commercial optical satellite market is enormous. With the rapid development of emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, the demands for satellite remote sensing data, communication services, and navigation and positioning are increasing rapidly. The emergence of commercial optical satellites with competitive advantages and huge market demand will effectively lower the barriers to entry for various satellite applications, unleashing market potential and creating tremendous commercial value.
In July 2023, USPACE successfully completed the construction of its 20,000 square meter ASPACE Hong Kong Satellite Manufacturing Center, the first of its kind in the city. The center boasts the capability to simultaneously develop multiple types of satellites, including communication, navigation, remote sensing, and radar satellites ranging from 10 kilograms to 1,000 kilograms, with an annual production capacity of 500 satellites.
USPACE’s globalization strategy continues to make substantial progress. The Company is gradually building a complete aerospace ecosystem, while innovating and creating core satellite products.
