Dual-Plane Architecture: Observe Uncorrupted — Guard Deterministically

Inspired by commercial aviation: strict separation between passive incident recording and real-time physical envelope supervision.

1 · Read-Only Bus Tap

kira-observer Blackbox

Passively taps CAN-FD, Automotive Ethernet, ROS2, or MAVLink without write access — sealing bitemporal sensor & decision snapshots cryptographically.

  • Answers liability, insurer & EU AI Act audits beyond doubt
  • Ideal zero-risk entry via passive fleet Shadow Mode
  • Captures pre- and post-incident causality in exact order
2 · Locked-RAM Supervisor

kira-ram-driver Physics Guard

Pinned in physical RAM (mlockall) with zero page-fault jitter: checks planned neural trajectories against hard friction, mass, torque, and stopping-distance invariants.

  • Vetoes physically unsafe commands in sub-milliseconds
  • Enforces ISO-15066 force/torque bounds on cobots & humanoids
  • Acoustic bearing, rotor & brake wear early-warning
3 · Modular KaaC Containers

GPS-Shield & Mission Profiles

Mount regional offline H3 terrain graphs, airspace rules, or machine material profiles dynamically via cryptographically signed .kaac containers.

  • Safe return-to-home under GPS jamming or spoofing
  • Unlockable fleet/terrain .kaac packs as OEM aftermarket
  • 100% autonomous in tunnels, mines, forests & offshore

Technical Q&A — Autonomous Mobility, UAV & Robotics

Answers for safety architects, ADAS/autonomy leads, and robotics OEMs.

1. Does KIRA replace our existing ADAS, flight controller, or ROS2 motion planner?

No — KIRA acts as an independent deterministic safety & audit middleware layer alongside your existing stack. Your neural perception and planning models continue to propose actions, while KIRA’s locked-RAM supervisor verifies physical invariants and logs tamper-proof provenance.

2. How can we validate KIRA in our vehicles or robots without safety certification risk upfront?

By starting with kira-observer in 100% passive Read-Only Shadow Mode. Wired to a read-only bus tap, KIRA cannot influence actuators at all while proving anomaly detection, traction warnings, and incident forensics across test fleets.

3. How does GPS-Shield navigation work when satellite signals are jammed or spoofed?

Drones and maritime/off-highway vehicles match onboard inertial, barometric, optical, and terrain-contour observations against compact, pre-compiled H3 elevation and landmark graphs stored in local .kaac containers — detecting spoofed GNSS jumps immediately and navigating safely offline.

4. How small is the binary for weight- and power-constrained UAVs?

The core Rust binary compiles under 15 MB with zero Python/JVM runtime overhead and runs on compact ARM64 companion computers (e.g. Raspberry Pi CM4/CM5, Jetson CPU cores, or industrial SOMs) over UART/MAVLink or CAN-FD.

5. How are commercial partnerships and terrain/skill KaaC updates licensed?

Licensing is tailored to vehicle/robot class, annual fleet volume, and aftermarket structure — combining predictable per-unit middleware licensing with optional fleet maintenance or mission-specific .kaac packs (e.g. regional H3 terrain, agricultural/inspection profiles).
