Corporate Profile
Ecliptic was founded as a California corporation in 2001.
We offer and sell a family of products in the following areas to a broad set of customers in commercial, civil and defense markets:
- Avionics systems
- Sensors and instrumentation
- Integrated video systems
- Ground-support systems
- Small payload systems
- Advanced concepts
Most of our customers are aerospace-related firms in the United States, though over the years we have had some foregin customers and several academic, media and non-profit organizations as clients. We operate in a very commercial manner, employing lean and nimble internal processes and primarily firm, fixed-price contracting.
Ecliptic designs, builds and tests hardware that gets launched, flown or used in the field. We're often involved with headline-making and award-winning projects, applying our extensive experience in the design, analysis, assembly, test and operations of aerospace systems and subsystems.
Our staff's combined experience includes many dozens of space missions and aerospace projects. Typically, there is a launch or flight with Ecliptic's products onboard about every 4 to 6 weeks. From the Big Picture to the details, we know our business.
Our family of compact, rugged avionics control units allow aerospace system designers to delegate nearly all control and monitoring of a given subsystem to one of these avionics units, simplifying subsystem interfaces — and everyone's lives.
We are the world's leading supplier of rugged video systems for use on rockets and spacecraft — our popular RocketCam™ product family — and enjoy a top-drawer client base.
