Hydris

Like Home Assistant, but for the outdoors. An open-source coordination engine for sensors, assets, and mission systems across large-area networks where things aren't conveniently plugged into a wall.

Integrate once. Deploy everywhere. No vendor lock-in.

Hydris connects heterogeneous sensors and command systems into a unified network. It provides real-time sensor fusion, automated track correlation, and coordinated response workflows - without replacing your existing systems. Built for defense, security, and civil use cases where your network of things spans kilometers, runs on battery, and can't always phone home.

• Sensor Fusion - Correlate tracks from public sources, local sensors, peer nodes, and radio networks into one picture
• Multi-Domain - Single architecture for CUAS, ground surveillance, maritime awareness, and space tracking
• DDIL-Native - Peer-to-peer mesh keeps operating when disconnected, disrupted, or bandwidth-limited
• C2 Integration - Push fused tracks into ATAK out of the box; military C2 connectors available as commercial extensions
• API-First - Every capability accessible via gRPC/REST; integrate in hours, not months

Getting Started

Download hydris from https://github.com/projectqai/hydris/releases

./hydris

Open http://localhost:50051 in your browser. That's it.

To try a demo scenario (CUAS around Berlin with sensors and a tracked target):

Builtin Integrations

Example Config

Hydris is configured by pushing entities. You can do this via the API or by loading YAML files. Here's a maritime awareness setup with AIS tracking, aircraft monitoring, and a port camera:

id: ais-coastal
config:
    controller: ais
    key: ais.stream.v0
    value:
        host: 153.44.253.27
        port: 5631
        latitude: 53.55
        longitude: 9.93
        entity_expiry_seconds: 300
---
id: adsb-local
config:
    controller: adsblol
    key: adsblol.location.v0
    value:
        latitude: 53.55
        longitude: 9.93
        query_type: location
        radius_nm: 500
---
id: camera-port
label: Port Camera
geo:
    latitude: 53.557
    longitude: 9.795
camera:
    cameras:
        - label: Harbor View
          protocol: CameraProtocolHls
          url: https://example.com/stream.m3u8

Or use the TypeScript client to push entities programmatically:

import { WorldService } from "@projectqai/proto/world";
import { createClient } from "@connectrpc/connect";
import { createConnectTransport } from "@connectrpc/connect-web";

const transport = createConnectTransport({ baseUrl: "http://localhost:50051" });
const client = createClient(WorldService, transport);

await client.push({ changes: [{
    id: "my-sensor",
    geo: { latitude: 52.52, longitude: 13.40, altitude: 50 },
    symbol: { milStd2525C: "SFGPES----" },
}]});
