Applications: Intelligence in ActioN

We build focused ML solutions for critical tasks.

Below are examples of how we embed intelligence into existing hardware to create immense value.

Manufacturing & Process Control

  • Predictive Maintenance on CNC Tooling: A low-res camera captures an image of a tool tip. A Cortex-M4 runs a binary classifier to determine TOOL_OK or TOOL_DAMAGED in milliseconds, preventing scrap and downtime.

  • Consumable Spool Monitoring: A tiny, battery-powered camera monitors the diameter of a material spool. The model classifies its state as FULL, LOW, or EMPTY, sending a LoRaWAN alert to prevent production line halts.

  • Acoustic Anomaly in Fuel Injectors: A contact microphone on a fuel rail listens to an injector's "tick." An anomaly detection model on a Cortex-M MCU identifies the muffled acoustic signature of a leaky injector long before it triggers a standard engine fault code.

Logistics & Retail Operations

  • On-Shelf Availability: A low-power camera on a shelf edge is trained on the visual of a "fully stocked" state. When a gap appears, a Cortex-M33 detects the anomaly and sends a STOCK_LOW alert to staff, preventing lost sales.

  • Propeller Integrity on Commercial Drones: A dedicated accelerometer and Cortex-M4 on each drone motor arm run a high-frequency vibrational anomaly detection model. It senses the unique signature of a cracked propeller, allowing the flight controller to issue a "Land Immediately" warning and prevent catastrophic failure.

Smart Home & Appliances

  • Standardized Alarm Detection: The always-on Cortex-M chip in a smart speaker, already listening for a wake-word, runs a second parallel model. It's trained to recognize the universal T3 (smoke) and T4 (CO) alarm patterns, turning the speaker into a critical safety device via a simple firmware update.

  • Washing Machine Bearing Failure: A washing machine's existing IMU, used for load balancing, is repurposed. A new model on the main MCU learns the machine's healthy vibrational signature and detects the subtle changes that predict a bearing failure months in advance, issuing a "Service Recommended" alert.
