Our product
See more. Know sooner.
Masthead gives platforms and sites persistent awareness of what is moving around them. Each unit watches more than a hemisphere at once, picks out what moves, and keeps a steady track while the platform itself turns.
Modular to 360°
One unit covers more than a hemisphere. Two units combine into a complete 360-degree world view.
Passive and steady
Optical sensing that sees without transmitting, held to a world reference as the platform turns.
Practical to build
Commodity components, integrated for practical power, weight, and cost.
Where it stands
A working prototype is undergoing outdoor testing, demonstrating real-time detection and tracking.
Built for
- Air
- Ground
- Maritime
- Fixed sites
Technical foundation
Built on 25 years of optical systems integration.
Experience spanning adaptive sensing, multi-aperture imaging, optical processing, and fielded systems.
Engineering services
From breakthrough
to build.
Selective, hands-on technical and operational support for complex hardware companies, from first prototype through scaled, regulated production.
Prototype to Production
Practical paths from a working prototype to repeatable production.
- Design transfer and manufacturing readiness
- Pilot builds that expose maturity gaps early
- Make, buy, or partner decisions grounded in cost and risk
Program Recovery
Clear direction when complex products and programs stall.
- Critical-path and technical risk diagnosis
- Quality system and design history remediation
- Configuration control and disciplined release
Manufacturing Performance
Better flow, capability, quality, and scale.
- Flow, yield, and lead-time improvement
- Capacity, facility, and team scale-up
- Regulated operations under ISO 9001, AS9100, and ISO 13485
Systems Integration
Optics, electronics, firmware, and software that work as one system.
- Electro-optical and sensing system architecture
- Hardware and software integration through demonstration
- Government R&D programs from proposal to delivery
Working principles
