ATLAS Mobile
Positioning beyond GPS.

ATLAS Celestial Localization System · CLS

ATLAS Mobile is a compact handheld positioning terminal with an embedded ultra-wide sky-facing camera and onboard AI. It computes precise geographic position, orientation and time using the sky itself as a reference — analyzing visible stars, planets, the moon, the sun and atmospheric patterns. Designed for operation in GPS-denied or degraded environments, anywhere a view of the sky is available.

Status · In Development
Capability · 01

Celestial position determination.

A compact sky-facing embedded camera captures and interprets celestial features. ATLAS resolves the observation into a full navigation state.

Geographic coordinates
Altitude estimation
Absolute orientation
Time & date inference
Device attitude & heading
Capability · 02

GPS-independent operation.

ATLAS Mobile maintains positioning capability when traditional satellite navigation infrastructure is unavailable, denied or unreliable.

  • GPS signals jammed
  • Satellite access unavailable
  • Infrastructure disrupted
  • Operations in remote regions
  • Indoor-to-outdoor transitions
Capability · 03

AI-based sky understanding.

Embedded models continuously match observations against onboard celestial models and learned sky representations.

Star field recognition
Planet identification
Moon phase & trajectory
Solar position tracking
Cloud & visibility assessment
Confidence scoring
Operational fit
