Mechatronics Prototyping for Woolsthorpe

Our CTO (Luke Cole) previously worked for Hemisphere GPS (orginally called BEELINE, and now bought out by AgJunction) as a "Robotics Engineer" implementing auto-guidance solutions for various quadbikes and agriculture tractors that was used by 100's of vehicles around the world.

For 10 years, starting as a teenager in 1998 - Luke Cole has also worked for leading research institutes and companies such as NICTA (now called CSIRO Data61), CSIRO, Seeing Machines and ANU Robotics System Lab (lead by Alex Zelinsky, who received a rare prestigious AO award in 2017 and was Defence Scientist of Australia from 2012 for 6 years). Luke's work included various autonomous mobile robot projects, involving computer vision, and even a self-driving car early 2000's. Back then OpenCV and ROS didn't exist, so we did a "roll-your-own" called VisLib and DROS comprised of 364,578 lines of code.

Lance Cole has also worked at NICTA and has a background of various hardware development, such as working for a contract company to the US millary (EOS), building the Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS).

At COLETEK, we empower businesses in Woolsthorpe to bring innovative mechatronics products and solutions to life. With extensive experience across robotics, electronics, embedded systems, AI, and product development, our team has successfully delivered over 150 R&D and new product projects for clients across industries.

Our Mechatronics Prototyping service starts with thorough requirements capture and analysis. We collaborate closely with you to understand your vision, technical challenges, and market opportunities. Our engineers then develop detailed design plans, considering engineering trade-offs and integration planning for seamless execution.

We seamlessly transition from design to prototyping, utilizing our in-house prototyping lab for rapid hardware and software development, testing, and refinement. Our iterative approach allows for continuous refinement and optimization based on your feedback. Once your product is production-ready, we can assist with planning and executing the handover process.

Remote collaboration is integral to our approach, enabling us to support clients across regional and metropolitan areas. We prioritize clear and consistent communication, ensuring seamless collaboration throughout the entire process.

Whether you need to validate the feasibility of an idea through a proof-of-concept or refine a prototype for market launch, COLETEK's Mechatronics Prototyping service will empower you to achieve remarkable results. Let's build something remarkable together.
