Protostar Labs

Space-Grade Vision Systems for
Smart Manufacturing

At Protostar Labs, we help manufacturers deliver higher quality, reduce waste, and automate inspection processes using intelligent, real-time visual systems.

Our systems use AI-powered computer vision, edge computing, and multispectral imaging to detect product defects and process anomalies that traditional systems miss — all in real time.

Proven in Space. Trusted on the Factory Floor.

Our optical payloads and onboard data processing systems are built to perform reliably in the harshest environment — space. That same technology now powers our industrial vision systems, delivering real-time, edge-based quality inspection on the factory floor.

By bringing space-grade robustness, precision, and autonomy to manufacturing, we help you achieve unmatched reliability in defect detection, process monitoring, and predictive maintenance.

Introducing the Protostar Vision Box

Our flagship solution, the Protostar Vision Box, is a compact, modular, and plug-and-play visual inspection system built for the demands of industrial environments.

AI-drive inspection

Our deep learning models identify surface defects, assembly errors, and process deviations with speed and precision.

Multispectral imaging

See beyond the visible. Detect heat, moisture, chemical residue, or material inconsistencies using near-infrared and other spectral bands — just like in Earth Observation satellites.

Edge-native performance

All processing happens locally for ultra-low-latency decision-making, even in bandwidth-constrained or secure factory settings.

Seamless integration

Easily integrates into existing production lines — with customizable setups for packaging, electronics, food industry, automotive, and more.

What We Offer

Visual Inspection Systems

Custom AI vision systems that detect defects, verify assembly, and ensure compliance in real time.

Multispectral Sensing

Identify what standard cameras can’t. Analyze materials and conditions beyond the visible spectrum.

Edge AI Solutions

Process data directly at the source for fast, reliable, low-latency decision-making.

Custom AI Model Development

We train deep learning models tailored to your products, defect types, and production conditions.
