Customer decisions

Maritime and critical-infrastructure decisions.

FusionGuard is being shaped around decisions where timing, sensor geometry, calibration and a clear source record matter as much as the image itself.

Initial Gulf reference use case

Suspected marine discharge

What is directly observed, what is derived and what remains only a hypothesis?

Initial Gulf reference use case

Vessel identity and behaviour

Does observed behaviour match the vessel's declared identity and operating pattern?

Initial Gulf reference use case

Changes at critical assets

What changed at a port, terminal, offshore site or coastal corridor, and when?

Field validation

Test the evidence chain beside the operating environment.

A ground campaign can measure timing, geometry, sensor registration and custody procedures before Sirona asks a customer to fund dedicated orbital capacity.

Proposed activity

Field setup with transmission inhibited.

The scene represents equipment alignment and data-chain preparation. People remain close to the radar, so it is explicitly a powered-down setup, not an active RF trial or a completed Sirona campaign.

Any real campaign would require a surveyed test plan, RF and rotation exclusion controls, named data sources and customer-approved acceptance criteria.

Sensing concept

Proposed sensing architecture.

The proposed flagship concept combines radar with optical or short-wave infrared sensing, mission-specific tasking and direct delivery. The configuration and performance remain Phase A trade-study targets.

Common time

Reduce ambiguity created when different sensors observe different moments.

Mission geometry

Optimise collection and downlink around the agreed operating area rather than pursue undifferentiated global coverage.

Raw measurement control

Retain the data and calibration state needed to improve products and explain limits.

Safe refusal

Do not manufacture confidence when timing, quality or evidence is too weak.

Asset route

Development path.

The controlled route begins on the ground, then advances through a small orbital pathfinder and only later to paired Fusion nodes and dedicated mission capacity.

  1. Ground and hardware validation

    Test calibration, timing, event utility, onboard processing and clear refusal.

  2. Orbital demonstrator

    A proposed dedicated spacecraft to prove payload avionics, compute, calibration and one useful sensing chain.

  3. Paired-sensor pathfinders

    A proposed pair designed around related radar and optical or SWIR measurements.

  4. Dedicated mission capacity

    Additional assets only after customer demand, service evidence and unit economics pass.

The current reference design is Gulf focused. Sirona can assess other customer-defined regions through new feasibility, data-access and regulatory work. No global service or coverage is claimed.
