Why Access Is Controlled
Spurdog hardware designs, software, and deployment configurations are shared as source-available materials with approved U.S. research partners. Access is controlled to ensure responsible use and to maintain a productive collaborator community.
This is not classified infrastructure, but we limit distribution to verified national lab and university partners to prevent uncontrolled redistribution of detailed manufacturing and deployment information.
