X-MAS · Xaltcraft Maritime Awareness System
Maritime awareness, from seabed to shore.
A complete system of hardware and software that keeps a continuously updated picture of underwater activity, with the confidence of every estimate stated.
Why X-MAS
Four problems every ocean operator knows.
Links cannot carry raw data
Long-range links are slow and fast links are short. X-MAS processes at the edge, so only what matters has to travel.
No baseline far from land
There is rarely a record of "normal" in the open ocean. X-MAS learns local conditions as it works.
Skills in separate rooms
Operations, engineering and strategy are seldom designed together. X-MAS builds operational experience into the software.
Systems that stand still
The ocean changes; most deployed systems do not. X-MAS keeps adapting to what it observes.
How it works
Observe. Interpret. Decide. Act. Learn.
Sensors observe. Labrador interprets at the edge. Poseidon decides with the operator. Trident and Zeus act. Nereus learns, so every mission makes the next one better.
Open by design
- Any input stream in, from our sensors or yours
- Output to your C2, combat management or allied networks
- Works over third-party, cabled or customer telemetry
- Proprietary algorithms, operating system, protocols and interfaces
- Capable of fully autonomous operation; human oversight recommended
What we make
