Hubble Network became the first company in the world to establish a Bluetooth connection directly with satellite. The startup launched its first two satellites into orbit as part of the SpaceX Transporter-10 mission in March. The company confirmed that it received signals from the built-in 3.5mm Bluetooth chips from a distance of more than 600 kilometers.
Hubble Network says its technology could be used in a variety of markets, including logistics, livestock tracking, smart pet collars, GPS watches for children, automotive devices, construction sites and soil temperature monitoring. The company initially plans to work with industries that require network coverage at least once a day, such as remote asset monitoring purposes for the oil and gas industry. As the number of satellites increases, the company will turn its attention to sectors that may require more frequent updates and even continuous coverage, such as soil or fall monitoring for the elderly.
Once the service launches, customers will simply need to integrate additional code into their device's chipset to enable connectivity to the Hubble network.
The company also patented a phase array antenna that can be launched by small satellites. The antennas work almost like a magnifying glass, which allows the finished Bluetooth chip to exchange data with the Hubble satellite.
Hubble Network plans to launch a third satellite as part of SpaceX's Transporter-11 mission this summer, and a fourth as part of Transporter-13. These four satellites will make up the “beta constellation”. Although clients of the pilot project can already begin integration. The startup plans to launch the next 32 satellites simultaneously in the fourth quarter of 2025 or early 2026. These 36 satellites will form the first operational constellation and will provide communications with the Hubble Network satellite for approximately 2-3 hours a day from anywhere in the world.
