01 / OBSERVE
Preserve the signal.
Timestamp sparse photon events and retain the context needed for downstream analysis. Measurement quality sets the foundation for every inference.
MISSION / AERIS SPACE
Intelligence where
the signals begin.
We develop a computational architecture that brings sensing and analysis closer together, with quantum AI fusion at the orbital edge.
Understand a changing orbital environment.
The Q-LEO research program connects photon acquisition, data representation and advanced computation in a common architecture.
Its applications span object detection and tracking, characterization, anomaly analysis and environmental context. These are research objectives, with validation progressing through modeling, hardware integration and mission testing.

02 / INTERPRET
Combine computational methods.
Use classical AI, quantum-inspired models and quantum-circuit simulations where they fit the workload. Evaluate each against its computational cost and evidence.
03 / DISTRIBUTE
Connect orbit and ground.
Keep selected processing near the sensor and route larger computational work to ground resources as link availability and resource budgets permit.
04 / VERIFY
Make engineering inspectable.
The engineering explorer exposes layers, dimensions, assumptions and simulation limits, creating a common basis for design review.
