Our take

Founded in 2022, TRL 11 develops technology used for satellites and manned space vehicles. Focused mainly on video solutions for space travel at low orbit, the company has most recently worked on SpaceX’s Transporter 8 Flight in June 2023.

The company’s core technologies currently being developed and used for space flights include the Space Aware Video Edge-Compute Recorder, the Hardened Network Switch for space travel internet connectivity, and the flexible launch adapter CubeSAT Deployer.

TRL 11 has reached new benchmarks in its tech developments in recent years. Its Space Aware Video Edge-Compute Recorder managed to log 90 minutes of full-motion video from multiple camera angles. This new benchmark indicates that the company’s wares are well-suited for a multitude of tasks during space travel, and has TRL 11 well set to pioneer a range of next-generation solutions for the New Space Economy.
