System 02 / 05Sensor Node

Connect

MOUND

Put sensing and compute where the mission demands.

Mission role

The field layer that hosts, connects, and processes.

Current phase

Development configuration

System intent

Built for its layer. Engineered for the whole mission.

Coverage is not created by a sensor alone. MOUND provides the field infrastructure that lets sensing, compute, and communications operate where the mission requires them. Its modular architecture is intended to support different payloads and network roles without rebuilding the deployment layer around each one.

MOUND is a deployable node for power, communications, edge compute, enclosure, mast, and sensor interfaces. It can host HEED, another sensor package, or operate as a communications and processing node within a distributed network.

Public capability profile

The responsibilities that define MOUND.

01

Field infrastructure

Packages the power, enclosure, mast, and service interfaces required to place mission hardware in the field.

02

Tactical connectivity

Links distributed sensing and edge systems so information can move across the defended area.

03

Edge processing

Hosts local compute close to the sensor, reducing dependence on a single centralized processing point.

04

Configurable payloads

Designed to operate with HEED, another sensor package, or as a communications and processing node without radar.

The architecture

One system is never the whole mission.
