Secure AI for
Mission-Critical Defense
AI-Native Embedded Linux for defense -- built on Linux 6.12 LTS with PREEMPT_RT, 64 MB memory footprint, AES-256-GCM encryption, WireGuard VPN, and zero telemetry. Purpose-built for ISR, tactical robotics, swarm coordination, and counter-UAS operations.
Key Capabilities
Built for classified environments
Zero-Trust Encrypted Comms
AES-256-GCM encryption across every channel with WireGuard VPN tunnels. MAVLink 2.0 message signing authenticates every command. eBPF QoS enforces MAVLink priority at the kernel level -- zero telemetry leaves the system by design.
- WireGuard VPN
- MAVLink 2.0 message signing
- eBPF QoS priority
Offline AI Inference
Run computer vision, NLP, and signal-processing models with zero cloud dependency. NPIE v2.0.0 provides 12 inference backends including TensorRT and OpenVINO on ruggedized edge hardware -- no data exfiltration risk, ever.
- NPIE v2.0.0 (12 backends)
- Edge LLM with llama.cpp
- Zero cloud dependency
Secure Boot & Audit Trails
Secure Boot via FIT image verification with dm-verity filesystem integrity from power-on through runtime. RAUC OTA with automatic rollback ensures safe field updates. Every system event is cryptographically signed for post-mission analysis and compliance.
- Secure Boot (FIT) + dm-verity
- RAUC OTA with rollback
- SBOM + reproducible builds
Platform Integration
How NeuralOS fits your defense stack
NeuralOS v5.0.0 deploys as an AI-Native Embedded Linux distribution purpose-built for defense platforms. Built on Linux 6.12 LTS with PREEMPT_RT, it boots in under 5 seconds within a 64 MB footprint, providing a secure, real-time runtime for any autonomous workload.
- Linux 6.12 LTS + PREEMPT_RT
Deterministic scheduling with < 1 ms worst-case latency for flight control and weapon systems.
- MAVLink 2.0 + message signing
Authenticated command links with eBPF QoS priority for mission-critical MAVLink traffic.
- Swarm engine
V/Line/Circle/Grid formations with Raft leader election for decentralised multi-agent coordination.
- RAUC OTA with rollback
Cryptographically signed A/B updates with automatic rollback on failure -- no maintenance window.
System Architecture
Use Cases
Proven in contested environments
Autonomous ISR Drones
Deploy fully autonomous ISR drones with GPS-denied navigation via ORB-SLAM3, real-time threat detection through NPIE v2.0.0, and MAVLink 2.0 command links with message signing. 16-state EKF sensor fusion (IMU, GPS, Baro, Mag) and PX4 Autopilot 1.16.0 integration run the entire perception-to-action loop offline.
Tactical Robotics
Autonomous ground vehicles for perimeter patrol, EOD, and logistics resupply. LiDAR SLAM navigation, thermal imaging analysis, and deterministic < 1 ms control loops keep robots responsive and safe in forward-deployed environments.
Swarm Intelligence
Coordinate autonomous agents through WiFi mesh (802.11s + BATMAN-adv) with the built-in swarm engine. V/Line/Circle/Grid formations with Raft leader election enable decentralised decision-making and dynamic task allocation without a central server.
Counter-UAS Systems
Detect, classify, and track hostile drones with multi-modal sensor fusion -- computer vision, RF spectrum analysis, and acoustic arrays. AI-driven threat classification feeds automated response workflows for jamming or kinetic intercept.
