Sony Group Corporation has launched 'EYE CONNECT,' a web application that enables users to experience the view of space as seen by the ultra-compact artificial satellite 'EYE,' operated by the STAR SPHERE project, on January 17, 2024.

By registering an account, anyone can use the application free of charge. Additionally, Sony announced that starting February 2024, they will begin accepting participants for a new service, 'Space Photography Experience,' where users can capture images from space using 'EYE CONNECT.'

'EYE CONNECT' is a web application that predicts the orbit of the satellite 'EYE,' allowing users to experience real views of space. Users can connect with 'EYE' from their own devices and immerse themselves in the cosmos. The application enables users to view the satellite's position and camera angle, and even simulate operating the satellite. No specialized knowledge is required, making it possible to enjoy space experiences in everyday life.

Now Accepting Participants for the Space Photography Service

The 'EYE' Space Photography Experience allows users to simulate the position of 'EYE' via the 'EYE CONNECT' app and request photographs from space. The images captured are delivered to the users, and even unexpected results due to weather conditions become valuable moments, offering a unique perspective of space and Earth. The first session will be limited to 30 groups in March 2024, with applications opening on February 13, 2024. Additional opportunities to participate are planned throughout the year.
