Technology / Altiro by Cachai

Coordination belongs onboard.

Altiro adds a distributed coordination layer to the systems you already use. The operator gives the mission. The platforms coordinate the work.

Four layers / One onboard foundation

The whole foundation, at a glance.

Four capabilities with their purpose and technical detail visible together.

Trust

Know who belongs in the fleet.

Establish trust between peers and authorize participating platforms, without relying on a centralized or cloud certificate authority.

  • Identify the participating platforms.
  • Establish trust between peers.
  • Support a fleet that can recompose as nodes change.
Time

Keep events in order.

GPS-independent synchronization and vector clocks support event ordering across platforms beyond cloud connectivity.

  • Coordinate without GPS or NTP.
  • Track the order of distributed events.
  • Give mission logic a common basis for timing.
Mission

Task the mission. Coordinate the work.

Translate operator intent into work across the fleet. Mission control is decoupled from the platform OS and does not depend on one central leader.

  • Keep operator commands focused on intent.
  • Assign work across participating platforms.
  • Integrate with existing platform software.
State

Keep a common world picture.

Share mission information between participating platforms. Local platform data stays local; shared mission data moves across nodes.

  • Maintain mission state on each platform.
  • Propagate the information the fleet needs to share.
  • Keep local control data separate from collaborative state.

The same four capabilities run onboard each participating platform.

Built to fit / Easy to integrate

Bring the platforms.
Add the coordination.

Altiro fits alongside your existing hardware, software and communications. Put a shared mission foundation where the work happens.

Your edge hardware.

Run on Arm or x86 platforms, from single-board computers to vehicle processors and ruggedized servers.

Hardware agnostic

Across domains.

Connect aerial, ground and surface platforms through a common coordination foundation while retaining their domain-specific control software.

Domain agnostic

Your network.

Use IP-based transport, including tactical radio, Wi-Fi or cellular links, with support for intermittent connectivity.

< 1 Mbpsper platform · reference bandwidth profile

A clear integration boundary.

Connect existing stack layers through APIs. Configure mission behavior through API or JSON interfaces, with MAVLink-based autopilot integration.

API-first design

Keep your data model.

Operate below the application layer. Share the mission information that matters while local platform data stays with the platform.

Datatype agnostic

Small onboard footprint.

A lightweight software layer designed for edge compute. Mission coordination runs onboard, beyond the reach of a cloud connection.

No cloud dependency

Repeatable deployment.

Deploy as Docker containers, using a consistent packaging approach from simulation through field integration.

Containerized stack

Update the mission.

Send mission updates over available links. Configure mission patterns around the capabilities of your platforms and autopilots.

Built to fit / Beyond the cloud

A layer,
not another stack.

Keep the platform software, sensors and mission logic you already have. Add coordination where the mission happens.

Discuss your platform →
INTEGRATIONYour platforms. Your transport.

Altiro separates collaborative mission control from the platform OS. The reference architecture includes sensor stacks, autopilots such as ArduPilot, ROS and effector control.

MAVLinkArm / x86IP transport

Local platform data stays local. Shared mission data moves between participating nodes.

CONNECTIVITYCoordination beyond cloud reach.

Coordination runs onboard. IP transport can include mesh radio, Wi-Fi, LTE or satellite links; store-and-forward supports intermittent connections.

Discuss the transport, link conditions and deployment requirements for your mission.

SECURITYTrust and protection between peers.

The architecture brings together peer trust, per-stream security requirements and encryption at rest and in transit.

  • Peer-to-peer trust establishment.
  • WireGuard overlay between nodes.
  • Security controls for constrained platforms.
