Mechatronics Prototyping for Waygara

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 Waygara to transform innovative ideas into tangible products through our comprehensive mechatronics prototyping services. Our team of experienced engineers has successfully collaborated with clients across industries to refine concepts, validate feasibility, and accelerate product development cycles.

Our mechatronics prototyping process starts with a thorough understanding of your requirements. We collaborate closely with you to capture and refine your vision, ensuring that the final product aligns perfectly with your needs. Our engineers then leverage their expertise in requirements capture, engineering trade-offs, and integration planning to bring your ideas to life.

We understand the importance of timely feedback and iteration during the prototyping process. Our in-house prototyping lab facilitates rapid hardware and software development, testing, and refinement. We seamlessly integrate these iterations into our workflow to ensure that your product evolves precisely as envisioned.

Beyond prototyping, we can support you with production-readiness planning and handover. Our team will guide you through the process of transitioning your prototype into a fully functional and manufacturable product. We can also assist with logistics across regional and metropolitan areas, ensuring seamless delivery of your product to any location.

Whether you need to validate the feasibility of a new product concept or refine an existing design, COLETEK is your trusted partner in mechatronics prototyping. Contact us today to discuss your project and discover how we can help you achieve remarkable results.
