Mechatronics Prototyping for Gonn Crossing

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 Gonn Crossing to transform innovative ideas into tangible products through meticulous mechatronics prototyping. 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 deep understanding of your requirements. We collaborate closely with you to capture and translate your vision into detailed technical specifications. 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 facilitate rapid hardware and software development, testing, and refinement. This allows 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 our progress and any potential roadblocks.

We understand the importance of seamless collaboration, especially when working across regional and metropolitan clients. Our remote-first approach enables us to effectively collaborate with businesses throughout Australia, conducting periodic design reviews and leveraging digital tools for efficient communication and progress tracking.

Whether you require assistance with proof-of-concept work, prototype refinement, design reviews, or production-readiness planning, COLETEK is your trusted partner in mechatronics prototyping. Our proven track record and client testimonials speak to our ability to deliver exceptional results that exceed expectations.
