Architecture

AURA™ Fleet Service
Automation Architecture

Six-Layer Infrastructure Stack — from grid interconnection to fleet dispatch integration. Every layer purpose-built for unattended, autonomous operation.

Infrastructure Stack

Six Layers. One Autonomous Stack.

Layer 1

Fleet Dispatch Integration

SOC data, mission schedule, readiness confirmation. The interface between fleet operations and service infrastructure.

Layer 2

JouleOS™ Orchestration

Per-site and cross-network coordination. Real-time scheduling, energy balancing, and SLA enforcement.

Layer 3

AURA™ Zero Touch™ Automation

Autonomous charging, inspection, cleaning, validation. The physical execution layer eliminating human intervention.

Layer 4

Charging & Energy Layer

DC fast charging, BESS, switchgear, metering. Energy infrastructure scaled to fleet throughput demands.

Layer 5

Site Infrastructure

Zoning, access control, modular service bays. Physical site topology designed for autonomous vehicle flow.

Layer 5

Grid & Utility Foundation

Interconnect, transformer scaling, demand response. The electrical backbone enabling high-power fleet servicing.

Topology

Scalable Site Typologies

The architecture deploys consistently across every scale — from localized edge nodes to high-throughput core facilities.

Type C

Spoke Site

1–2 bays

1–2 bays

1–2 bays

Minimal footprint for distributed fleet touchpoints.

Type B

Hub Site

4–8 bays

4–8 bays

4–8 bays

Multi-vehicle throughput with cross-site load optimization.

Type A

Core Depot

24+ bays

24+ bays

24+ bays

Metro-scale operations with full AURA deployment.

Design Principles

Dark Site Architecture

The AURA architecture enforces operational invisibility. Service congestion is eliminated before it forms.

Arrival time-slot assignment

Cross-site load balancing

SLA enforcement

Dynamic bay allocation

Predictive staging

Energy demand smoothing
