Summary

XOS is XTEND hardware-agnostic operating system for mission autonomy. It lets operators supervise and direct multiple unmanned systems across complex environments, combining human-guided control with autonomous navigation, coordination and multi-platform execution.

Overview

XOS is XTEND hardware-agnostic operating system for mission autonomy. It lets operators supervise and direct multiple unmanned systems across complex environments, combining human-guided control with autonomous navigation, coordination and multi-platform execution.

Market context

Mission operating layer that connects platforms, payloads, autonomy, and operators into a unified mission environment.

• Target environment: Robot developer workflows, simulation environments, operations centers and autonomy stacks that need software rather than new robot hardware.
• Workflow context: Robot control, mission planning, simulation, autonomy coordination, fleet operation and developer integration.
• Customer context: Robot developers, operators, integrators and autonomy teams building or coordinating robotic systems.
• Deployment model: Commercial or available product positioned for customer use, integration or developer adoption.
• Commercial maturity: Publicly presented as commercial or available, with maturity depending on deployment scale and support coverage.
• Adoption constraints: Adoption depends on integration effort, hardware compatibility, latency, safety validation, data quality and operator trust.
• Market position: XOS sits in the robot software layer, shaping how robots are controlled, coordinated or trained.
• Adjacent products: NVIDIA Isaac, Project GR00T, OverDrive, Hivemind
