Functional Autonomy Mission Architecture

Cenith builds mission-specific planning tools
and specialized autonomous assets to solve
the last-mile problems. We get our hands dirty with
the complexity of the mission and deliver the
functional autonomy needed to win.

The Architect Layer

Tactical Mission Orchestration

We provide the blueprint for the complex ‘last mile.’ Our planning software provides more than waypoints on a map; it understands the unique needs of each mission and how the terrain, synchronization, and adversary impact it.

 

  • Mission-Specific Objectives
  • IL4/5 Ready Architecture
  • Hybrid Cloud/On-Premise/Air Gapped
  • Intuitive User Experience
  • Highly Scalable
  • Fully Documented API for Easy Integration

VALUE ADD: We reduce the time it takes to go from Commander’s intent to motors starting.

The Survival Layer

Contested Autonomy (Embedded OS)

Our robots don’t rely on ‘phone-home’ architectures; they use complex collaborative swarming to overwhelm. Our Embedded Autonomy ensures that once the robot enters the breach, it finishes the task even if the signal is cut.

  • Mission-Specific Multi-Agent DRL
  • Low-Cost Compute
  • Hybrid Cloud/On-Premise/Air Gapped
  • Heterogeneous Swarm
  • PACE Comms (HaLow, 5G, Disconnected)
  • 1-to-Many Robots to Operators
  • Alternative Position and Navigation

VALUE ADD: This is the insurance. Cenith’s swarm autonomy adapts to a messy battlefield and removes warfighters from danger to increase mission effectiveness and survival.

The Execution Layer

Task-Specific Robotics

We build the specialized ‘muscle’ required for heavy-hitting military needs. Our platforms aren’t just cameras in the sky; they are ruggedized robots designed to do the actual job. They are built for the mission, not the trade show

  • STRIDER Heavy (Group 2 Drone)
    – SHAPER-A — Terrain Shaping | Mines
    – JAMMER-A — Terrain Shaping | EW
    – RENDER-A — Neutralization | Mortar
  • SCOUT (Group 1 Drone)
    – SCOUT-A — ISR | EO/IR, LiDAR
  • UGV (50 lbs Tracked)
    – RENDR-G — Neutralization | Mines, EW

 

VALUE ADD: We remove the human from the “dull, dirty, and dangerous” tasks, giving them back the critical resource of time to focus on high-level decision-making outside the line of fire.

The Integration Layer

Mission Assurance

We understand the ruggedization and reliability standards required for the front lines. We apply ‘major platform’ standards to ‘niche’ robotics and attritable systems and provide the advanced R&D and systems engineering to keep them relevant.

  • Fully-Documented APIs
  • Advanced Research and Development
  • Robust Systems Engineering and RMF
  • State-of-the-Art Additive Manufacturing
  • Future-Focused Design Philosophy
  • Rapid Prototyping
  • User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Development

 

VALUE ADD: We close the loop. We take the data from the mission and ensure the “body” of the robot is ready for the next “brain” update.
