Where we work

Four fields that share the same physics and the same regulator

They are not four businesses. A cargo cycle, a battery pack, a model that decides when to charge and the board it runs on are one problem seen from four sides, and the same record covers all of it.

Four circles overlapping in one lit centre Four rings of equal size lie in a square pattern and overlap one another. They are marked EV, transport, AI and hardware. Where all four meet in the middle lies a fifth, filled ring with a glowing point. Above stands same physics, same regulator, same record. EV TRANSPORT AI HARDWARE SAME PHYSICS. SAME REGULATOR. SAME RECORD. FOUR FIELDS, AND WE STAY INSIDE THEM
An electric vehicle charging

01. Electric vehicles

The pack, the charge and the heat

Most electric vehicle projects fail on thermal behaviour or on a charging interface that a standard moved under. Both are visible in the record years before they bite, because someone already hit them and filed about it.

We work on pack architecture, cell selection against a measured duty cycle, the battery management strategy, and the charging interface with the standards that govern it. Type approval and CE are planned from the first sketch rather than discovered in month nine.

Electric transport

02. Electric transport

Everything that moves a load and is not a passenger car

Light commercial vehicles, cargo cycles, rail, port and yard equipment. The economics here are decided by the depot rather than by the vehicle, and the grid connection is usually the constraint nobody costed.

We measure the duty cycle instead of assuming it, size the charging behind it, and produce a total cost that survives being read by an accountant rather than by an enthusiast.

A network of connected nodes

03. Artificial intelligence

Models that have to be right, not models that have to demo well

A model in a vehicle or on an industrial device answers for its output. That changes the engineering: the evaluation set has to be yours, the failures have to be enumerated before launch, and the fallback when the model is unsure has to exist in the product rather than in the roadmap.

We build on device and edge inference, we evaluate against data you hold and can rerun, and we settle the EU AI Act role of the system before it ships instead of after a customer asks.

Electronics seen close up

04. Hardware

A thing you can hold, measure and take to a test house

Schematic, layout, a board that boots, an enclosure that closes and firmware that survives a power cut. The unglamorous half of innovation, and the half that decides whether any of the rest ever ships.

We pre test for EMC and safety before a booked slot at a test house, because a failed slot costs more than the pre test and moves the launch by a quarter.

Adjacent work we take, and why it is adjacent

A robot in a kitchen

Robotics in food production

A cooking cell is a motion problem, a food safety problem and a thermal problem at once. It sits inside our four fields, and we have a sister brand in the group that sells the result.

Renewable power

Energy and storage

Stationary storage is a vehicle pack that stopped moving. The cells, the management and the safety case are the same argument with a different duty cycle.

Growing under cover

Controlled environment growing

Sensors, power electronics and a model that decides. Different industry, identical stack, and the record is much emptier than in automotive.

The engineering underneath

Twelve things that appear in almost every project

Cells, heat, a connector, a grid connection, a depot, a board, an enclosure, a chamber, a sensor, a bench, a network and the device it runs on. Different industries, the same dozen problems.

  • A row of battery cells with one under measurement Nine cells stand side by side, the middle one filled and carrying a probe line from above.
  • A thermal image of a part A rounded rectangle filled with a gradient and three contour rings inside it, brightest in the centre.
  • A charging connector meeting an inlet A plug on the left and an inlet on the right, joined by a short line with a bright point where they meet.
  • A grid connection with a load behind it A pylon shape on the left joined by a line to a square load on the right, with a meter between them.
  • Three vehicles parked under one rail Three rectangles of different width stand in a row under a horizontal rail, each joined to it by a short line.
  • A circuit board with three tracks A rectangular board with three routed tracks in mint, blue and violet, and a package in the middle.
  • An enclosure with a lid lifted off A box drawn in outline with its lid floating above it and dashed lines showing where it lands.
  • A radiating source inside a measurement chamber A device in the centre with three arcs radiating from it toward an antenna at the edge.
  • A sensor reading a value off a surface A small block above a line, with three short measurement rays between them and a reading shown as a bar.
  • A bench with an instrument and a trace A screen on the left showing a drawn waveform, joined by a cable to a device on the right.
  • Four network layers side by side Four vertical columns of dots with lines between them, the outer columns brighter than the inner ones.
  • Inference running on the device itself A small board with a chip on it inside a dashed boundary, with no line leaving the boundary.
An opened envelope under an arc of light An envelope stands open in the middle with two lines of text visible, one of them violet. An arc of light curves over it from left to right and ends in a point. Above stands two paragraphs is enough, below stands answered within one working day. TWO PARAGRAPHS IS ENOUGH ANSWERED WITHIN ONE WORKING DAY

Is your field one of these?

If it is next door to one of them, ask anyway. If it is genuinely somewhere else we will say so quickly.
