15 september 2024
Andrew Peterson is the Co-Founder & CEO of Array Labs, with a simple mission: Mapping the whole world in 3D, at 20cm in near real time.
We peel the layers as to what it takes to get there: the engineering that’s required, how to build a constellation to do that, how you fund such a project.
