ALURES
Orbital compute layer built for data infrastructure beyond Earth.
Alures develops radiation-aware edge compute for spacecraft and relay systems that need to process data before the next ground contact.

(02) The company
Alures is an orbital compute company. We develop onboard inference, autonomy, and storage systems so spacecraft can respond to sensor data, navigation events, and payload anomalies when a ground link is unavailable or too slow for the mission need.

Alures Core — Mission-configured edge compute
Compute modules run onboard models, generate reduced data products, and prioritize downlink according to mission-defined rules.
Inference / storage
Routing / autonomy
Mission dependent
01 / Runtime
Radiation-aware AI runtime
Model serving for mission-qualified hardware, with health monitoring, checkpointing, watchdogs, and controlled restart after recoverable faults.
Fault detection / model serving
02 / Network
Inter-satellite task routing
Priority-aware task routing across available optical or radio crosslinks, with store-and-forward behavior when links are interrupted.
Crosslink routing / store and forward
03 / Payload
Sensor data reduction
Calibrate, classify, compress, and prioritize SAR, hyperspectral, or telescope products before downlink.

(05) Process
One clear path from mission need to orbital compute
We qualify the orbit, payload, autonomy loop, and ground interfaces before hardware enters the mission plan.
Mission fit review
We map orbit, payload type, latency budget, compute load, and failure modes with your systems and operations teams.
Output: capacity model + risk register
Architecture baseline
Node class, redundancy model, runtime, and ground-interface contracts are baselined through mission design reviews.
Output: ICD + verification plan
Integration window
Alures simulates your workload, hardens the deployment path, and validates command, telemetry, and rollback behavior.
Output: integration build + verification report
Orbit operations
Once deployed, we monitor compute health, model performance, storage pressure, and task queues across passes and eclipses.
Output: operations dashboards + scheduled reviews
(06) Blockchain compute
Blockchain workloads under orbital constraints
Proof-of-work mining is power intensive, and nearly all input power becomes heat that a spacecraft must reject through its thermal-control system. Feasibility therefore depends on the mission power budget, radiator capacity, orbit, and duty cycle.
Alures treats mining as an interruptible background workload, scheduled only within payload power and temperature margins. Other blockchain tasks, including verification and indexing, can use the same signed-deployment and telemetry controls.
