Bringing computer vision and AI/ML products to the edge.

From R&D to Product
Our team has experience conducting research starting at Technology Readiness Level 3 up through production and fielding. Where most small firms stop at the acquisitions "Valley of Death," we can help you go from experiment to product.

Sensors and Robotic Systems
With a strong background in sensors, field robotics, and embedded machine learning, we can help you leverage the best practical technology available to solve your problems.

Domestic Manufacturing
We do prototype and low-rate manufacturing right here in-house. Modern manufacturing equipment enables us to re-shore domestic manufacturing. Our current investments include an SMT pick and place line, robotic work cells, camera focus, sensor calibration, and light machining. We're building our process to be FAR compliant and meet AS9100D for quality. We'd be excited to be a trusted supplier for you.

Partnerships
We think that our transparent, frank, and honest approach to doing business makes us a trustworthy partner that will be a steward of your interests. Have a team capability or skill gap that needs to be filled? Have a sensor or robotics R&D project to transition to product? We are a flexible partner that would love to speak with you about your needs.
