Our People Make a Difference
Our multi-disciplinary teams specialise in developing end-to-end products and devices, taking early stage concepts through to complete product releases - and even to small volume production line scale-up. Including some of the below:
Software for Real Devices

We have expertise in high-speed image analysis and processing, as well as building systems that capture, interpret and use image data. We have built mixed-reality digital twins to improve how operators visualise information and remotely control hazardous systems. Using Microsoft’s HoloLens, we enhanced training modules for IMI Critical Engineering with augmented reality (AR) to give engineers a real-world experience of the products they’ll be maintaining.
