Navigation Sensors for The New Space Economy
AMROK is building a future where satellites maneuver dynamically, autonomously, and reliably. The ARVIN™ sensor suite delivers precision navigation for satellite rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking, without the need for complex machine vision or human intervention. By enabling secure data exchange and precise maneuvering, ARVIN™ enhances the resilience and responsiveness of dynamic space operations. With ARVIN, we are paving the way for a robust on-orbit economy—supporting logistics, manufacturing, and other essential infrastructure that improves the quality of life on Earth.
About Us
We are a team of engineers and startup veterans building solutions to make RPOD (Rendezvous, Proximity Operations, and Docking) secure, reliable, and repeatable.
