70,000 satellites by 2030. Most are passive metal in orbit. Arqus Aerospace builds the autonomous effector modules that let them defend, inspect, service, and operate on their own.
Today's satellites depend on ground stations for every decision. A threat appears, and the response takes hours. A service window opens, and it's missed. The orbital layer is reactive when it needs to be autonomous.
Arqus Aerospace changes this with modular effector modules powered by edge AI. Directed energy. Robotic systems. Software-defined electronic warfare. Each module gives a satellite the ability to act, in real-time, without waiting for permission from the ground.
On-board decision-making that operates without ground station dependency. Real-time threat assessment, mission replanning, and autonomous maneuver execution at the edge.
Modular directed energy effectors that integrate into existing satellite platforms. Active defense and denial capabilities that operate at the speed of light.
Autonomous robotic modules for inspection, proximity operations, and in-orbit servicing. Satellites that can reach out and interact with their environment.
Electronic warfare capabilities that adapt through software updates, not hardware swaps. Reconfigurable threat response for an evolving electromagnetic domain.
Effector modules designed to integrate with existing satellite buses. No need to build new spacecraft. Upgrade what's already in orbit or what's going up next.
Millisecond response times in contested orbital environments. When the threat is traveling at 7km/s, waiting for ground confirmation is not an option.
