Its mission is to offer space-tolerant polarization modulators with a smaller size and weight, without sacrificing their technological base. These small satellites are devices that fit in one hand, little larger than a spectacle lens and weighing about 200 grams. In addition to their versatility, polarization modulators allow reliable and accurate data to be obtained.    <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54354\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54354\" style=\"width: 371px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-54354\" src=\"https:\/\/fpcm.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/labseye4sky-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Eye4Sky Technologies laboratories, INTA's first spinoff\" width=\"371\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fpcm.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/labseye4sky-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fpcm.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/labseye4sky-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fpcm.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/labseye4sky-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fpcm.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/labseye4sky.jpg 1299w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 371px) 100vw, 371px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54354\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eye4Sky Technologies laboratories, INTA&#8217;s first spinoff<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This type of technology is intended to be used in two types of missions.
