What is GHOST-AI?
The company announced Thursday that its General Purpose Hypersonic Optimizer for Survivable Trajectories, also known as GHOST-AI, uses reinforcement learning to train agents across simulated conditions to support adaptive guidance, navigation, control, and survivable trajectory optimization.
The system allows simulated hypersonic vehicles to operate in a variety of scenarios without any mission-specific pre-training.
What is CASTER-AI?
The Cognitive Evaluation System for Tactical Engagement Response AI (CASTER-AI) is designed for battle management applications such as tactical engagement response, attack package planning, dynamic resource and target pairing, pre-mission planning, fire control decision support, and system performance evaluation.
The system incorporates the GHOST-AI agent, which links simulated vehicle behavior with mission-level battle management decisions across hypersonic vehicles, cruise missiles, and other weapons.
What does Aurex CEO Warren Combs say about AI capabilities?
“Aurex uses AI to not only discover solutions, but to transform those insights into explainable and testable algorithms for future guidance, battle management, and fire control applications,” said Warren Combs, CEO of Aurex.
“We don’t wait until a need arises. Engineering the best possible means that our team always defines what’s next and designs solutions before they’re needed. We’re excited about the progress made with GHOST-AI and CASTER-AI, and look forward to helping our customers be mission-ready,” the CEO added.
In a recent Executive Spotlight interview, Combs We discussed the company’s work on AI, advanced space technology, Artemis II, and its transition into hardware development..
What is Aurex?
Aurex is an aerospace and defense company focused on hypersonic systems, missile defense, hardened networks, and orbital systems. Headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, the company operates across the United States to support defense, space and national security customers.
In January, Godspeed Capital-backed Aurex completed its acquisition of Alpha 2 to expand its communications and cryptographic engineering capabilities for national security systems.
