Arqus GmbH

Mission

Arqus is rewriting the economics of defense to protect our most vital infrastructure and the ultimate high ground, in space and on ground. With the exponential rise of mass-manufactured, autonomous threats across terrestrial and space domains, traditional kinetic defense frameworks have become economically unsustainable. Arqus flips the cost curve back in favor of the defender, providing scalable, software-defined protection for critical modern assets.

Core Technology

We bridge advanced artificial intelligence with aerospace engineering to build a modular, low-cost, and ITAR-free directed-energy security layer. By pairing autonomous Edge-AI tracking modules with high-precision laser effectors, our systems deliver instantaneous sensor dazzling and neutralization at a fraction of the cost of legacy systems (<€0.10 per intercept).

Multi-Domain Applications

- Orbital Security: Serves as the standard security layer for satellite constellations and orbital infrastructure, defending high-value space assets against rendezvous and proximity operations, stalker satellites, and optical space-domain threats.

- Terrestrial Defense: Safeguards critical infrastructure, power plants, logistics hubs, and military installations from mass-manufactured drone swarms via rapid, non-kinetic intercept capabilities.
