Drones and aerospace

Project Akali

An interceptor drone designed from first principles, with custom engines and props.

  • Airframe shaped by CFD and optimisation-driven design
  • Custom engines and props designed in-house
  • About ten prototypes taken through to flight

Robotics

Biped platform

A legged robot built on quasi-direct-drive actuators designed in-house.

  • Quasi-direct-drive actuators for torque and backdrivability
  • Actuators and leg assembly underway
  • Mechanical, electronic and control design in one team

Electronics and rapid prototyping

Custom electronics

Custom circuit boards designed, simulated and released for manufacture.

  • Multi-layer PCB layout with full schematic capture
  • Circuit simulation, DRC and ERC checks before release
  • Fabrication and assembly packages ready for build

AI systems

AI systems

Speech, voice and workflow AI built to run where the work happens.

  • On-device speech recognition
  • Voice agents for real operational calls
  • AI-driven workflows with people in control

Delivery case study

Canterbury-Bankstown operations platform

A live waste-operations platform for one of NSW’s largest councils.

  • Driver iPads for field crews
  • Resident app and staff portal
  • Hosted on AWS Sydney, running in production every day
