SA-001 / TYPE: PARENT UNITED STATES — DOMICILE
Actuation · Compute · Standard

The movement America needs.

Sentinel Automata builds integrated servo actuators, the embedded compute that drives them, and the open standard that connects them. US-sourced, designed for ITAR compliance from day one.

// 01 — Thesis

The next industrial layer is being built. It must not be built abroad.

Sentinel Automata builds the joints. Integrated servo actuators for the arms, legs, gimbals, and manipulators of autonomous machines — with the embedded silicon that drives them and the open standard that connects them. One US operating company, designed for ITAR compliance from day one.

// 02 — Process

The process is the product.
Ours already runs.

The spec is the source; everything else is generated. Every interface drawing Sentinel publishes is rendered live from the ratified interface-control document — the same spec that generates the production geometry and its manufacturing parameters. The drawing you see is generated, not illustrated.

00— SPECIFY

The ICD is code

Each actuator has one ratified interface-control document — bore, pilot, bolt circle, output pattern — written as a machine-readable spec. One source of truth per model.

Ratified · per model
01— GENERATE

Everything derives

Drawings, CAD, and manufacturing parameters derive from the spec. Change the ICD and everything downstream regenerates — including the drawings on this site.

02— VERIFY

Geometry round-trips

Generated geometry is checked back against the ICD before it ships anywhere. What a partner bolts to is what the spec says — to the tenth of a millimeter.

// 03 — The Stack

Three programs.
One coherent platform.

Three programs, one integrated US-sourced supply for the body of the machine — the muscle, the brain, and the interface between them.

01— MUSCLE

Actuation

Integrated joint actuators for uncrewed platforms, manipulator arms, and gimbals — engineered for production scale and certifiable provenance.

Operational · ISAP line
02— BRAIN

Compute

Embedded coprocessors that find the equation, not just the answer. Symbolic-regression silicon designed for control, autonomy, and discovery.

In development
03— INTERFACE

Standard

An open interoperability layer for the body of the machine — mechanical, electrical, protocol, and certification. The connector the industry hasn’t agreed on yet.

// 04 — The Mission

Everywhere people
shouldn’t be.

Actuation designed for machines that work where people can’t. Our first system — an uncrewed vehicle-recovery swarm riding on ISAP joints — takes the crew out of the recovery job. The same capability carries into every environment that endangers the people sent in.

Sentinel Recovery Swarm concept — disabled vehicle carried on tracked units
Sentinel Recovery Swarm · concept frame
MINED & CONTESTED GROUND

Recover the clearance fleet. No sapper goes back in.

NUCLEAR DECOMMISSIONING

Move multi-ton loads where no one may enter.

NAVAL SUSTAINMENT & SALVAGE

Clear the deck with no crew on it.
