Sentinel —Machine-native compression for remote infrastructure
Satellite backhaul is expensive. A single high-resolution camera can consume significant bandwidth when streaming continuously. Sentinel converts video into machine-native streams at the edge, reducing bandwidth usage by up to 62% while preserving full legal-grade reconstruction when needed.
Gateway capabilities
built for operations
Satellite Backhaul Optimization
Designed to substantially lower bandwidth requirements at the edge. In many deployments, it can pay for itself quickly.
Dual-Layer Architecture
A base layer of AI-ready semantic data streams continuously. An enhancement layer is stored locally for full reconstruction and compliance.
Continuous Semantic Capture
Maintains uninterrupted awareness. Every event is captured without relying on motion-triggered gaps.
Rugged Edge Gateway
Pre-loaded on NVIDIA Jetson Orin with NVMe storage. Simple deployment with minimal configuration.
From Pixels to Perception.
In Four Steps.

Where Sentinel works.
Real costs. Real savings.
Satellite backhaul operators: See your numbers below.
Offshore Oil & Gas
Substantially lower bandwidth on high-resolution camera feeds, leading to meaningful annual savings.
Remote Pipeline Networks
Scales efficiently for high-bandwidth operations, reducing ongoing satellite costs.
Island & Archipelago Operations
Helps make continuous monitoring more affordable in remote locations.
Remote Electrical Substations
Reliable edge processing where connectivity is limited and expensive.
Fits into your existing infrastructure.
Sentinel sits between your cameras and your satellite link. We integrate with your VMS, your storage, and your network — not the other way around.
Video Management
Edge Hardware
Storage & Network
Custom MIP and Security Center plugins are included with Gateway Pilot deployments. Our engineering team handles the integration — not yours.
Evidence-grade.
Not generative AI.
Deterministic fusion of Base Layer + Enhancement Layer. Legally admissible under Federal Rule of Evidence 901 and State v. Rittenhouse case law.
Deterministic Reconstruction
Mathematically consistent output. Admissible under standard evidence rules.
Secure Chain of Custody
Cryptographic verification from edge to cloud.
Gateway Trial Program
8-week pilots with preconfigured hardware. Ideal for offshore, pipeline, island, and remote substation operators.
Evidence-Grade, Not Generative
Sentinel uses deterministic reconstruction — not AI hallucination. Base + Enhancement layer fusion produces verifiable video.
