Mechatronics Prototyping for Gannawarra

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 Gannawarra to transform innovative ideas into tangible products through 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 and goals. We collaborate closely with you to capture and refine your vision, considering every aspect from functionality to aesthetics. Our engineers then leverage their expertise in requirements capture, engineering trade-offs, and integration planning to bring your ideas to life.

We maintain an in-house prototyping lab equipped with advanced tools and technologies to support rapid hardware and software development, testing, and refinement. This enables us to iterate quickly and efficiently, addressing any challenges along the way. Our commitment to transparency and open communication ensures you are always informed of progress and any potential roadblocks.

Whether you require assistance with proof-of-concept work, prototype refinement, design reviews, or production-readiness planning, COLETEK has the expertise and resources to support your needs. We understand the unique challenges of working across regional and metropolitan areas, and we have developed effective remote collaboration processes to ensure seamless interaction regardless of physical location.

Our proven track record and satisfied clients across industries demonstrate our ability to deliver exceptional mechatronics prototyping services. Let us partner with you to transform your innovative ideas into successful products and achieve market dominance in Gannawarra and beyond.
