 Balua is not just ballon!

 

Balua Project is an R&D project that aims to build a new kind of high altitude platform, with new features and capabilities, challenging the future!

The Project Balua is a high altitude platform that intents to be:

  1. Innovative
  2. Controllable in altitude
  3. Recoverable
  4. Reusable
  5. Flexible

Why is it Important?

Such a platform can be used for a number of different and important tasks, such as:

  • Atmospheric Scanning.
  • Aerial image with high resolution and variable altitude.
  • Long-term Monitoring.
  • Transportation of cargo to remote locations.
  • Telecommunications (relay).
