Thunderclap Labs took first place at the Jaunaragiai KickstartLab pitch event, walking away with €5,000 to accelerate development of ThunderEye — our optical 3D airspace intelligence system.
We pitched. We competed. We won.
At the Jaunaragiai KickstartLab pitch event, Thunderclap Labs took first place and walked away with €5,000 — validation that what we're building with ThunderEye is worth backing.
What Is ThunderEye?
ThunderEye is our optical voxel tracking system for real-time 3D airspace intelligence. Instead of radar, it uses multi-camera voxel projection to build a live 3D map of the sky — completely passive, no active emissions, undetectable by enemy electronic warfare systems.
It works in GPS-denied and contested environments, delivers sub-meter accuracy, and connects directly to military GIS and C2 dashboards. The core use case: detecting and tracking swarms of loitering munitions like Shahed/Geran drones before they reach their target.
In short — it's a radar alternative built for the modern battlefield.
What This Win Means
This isn't just money. It's confirmation from an independent set of mentors and judges that the problem is real, the solution is sound, and the team can execute.
We've been heads-down building ThunderEye since May 2025 in partnership with the Lithuanian Riflemen's Union. This win accelerates that work — more hardware, more testing, faster iteration.
A genuine thank you to the KickstartLab organizers and mentors at Jaunaragiai. The program gave us sharp feedback and real support at a critical stage.
What's Next
We're building. ThunderEye development continues at full pace — more field testing, system hardening, and pushing toward deployment-ready hardware.
Stay tuned.
