Key product families and solutions
From its public announcements, Maris-Tech has introduced and promoted several named systems and platforms:
- Opal – A ruggedized tactical edge computing system described as a video intelligence platform for defense applications. It combines advanced AI acceleration with ultra-low latency streaming to process video, audio and telemetry data. Opal is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, meets MIL-STD requirements and is designed for scenarios where reliability, low SWaP and uninterrupted video intelligence are essential.
- Diamond – A MIL-STD ruggedized situational awareness platform for armored vehicles, providing 360° 3D perimeter coverage and advanced airborne threat detection, as presented in the company’s DSEI exhibition materials.
- Jupiter AI – A miniature, lightweight, low-power AI-based edge computing solution that supports multiple video and AI streams simultaneously.
- Coral – A compact, low-power intelligence gathering and tactical platform that supports multiple video streams over cellular communication.
- Firebird F-100 5G (exclusively by SPI & Videosoft) – A low bandwidth, low latency video encoder and decoder for cellular, mesh and SATCOM networks, showcased alongside Maris-Tech’s solutions at DSEI.
- Garnet – A compact, lightweight and low-power integrated video and AI payload for miniature drones. Garnet is powered by Maris-Tech’s Jupiter Drones technology and integrates a thermal camera, day camera and radio frequency datalink into a single payload. It supports low-latency video streaming, onboard recording, AI models, connectivity to drone autopilot systems and adaptive communication for dynamic mission conditions. The system is designed to deliver intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and real-time edge processing in SWaP-constrained unmanned platforms.
These named products illustrate Maris-Tech’s focus on ruggedized, AI-enabled video intelligence for ground and aerial platforms, including armored vehicles and drones.
