Solar balloon to better track wildlife

Hi everyone,

We're developing an areal platform autonomous in energy. It a balloon inflated with helium and covered with solar panels. It can lift up to 5 kg and generate up to 500 W in just 1H. It is tethered to the ground thanks to a light cable. It is easy to set and disassemble.

This platform can be used to monitor wildlife. It can be used for observing with a gambled camera or as a very high antenna. A high point (150m/300feets) enhances the telecom coverage and increase the coverage area (by at least 4 times). 

We are currently looking for people and organisations that could benefit from this, and try our beta version.

Feel free to contact me for more information :)
