Mechatronics Prototyping for Meatian

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 Meatian 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 project requirements and goals. We collaborate closely with you to capture detailed requirements, identify potential engineering trade-offs, and develop a detailed integration plan. Our in-house prototyping lab facilitates rapid iteration and refinement of your design, ensuring optimal performance and functionality.

We understand the importance of seamless collaboration, especially in regional areas. Our team is adept at remote collaboration tools and can seamlessly work with clients across metropolitan and rural locations. We also offer periodic design reviews and updates to ensure transparency and alignment throughout the process.

Our expertise extends beyond hardware and software development. We can assist with requirements capture, engineering trade-offs, integration planning, testing, and production-readiness planning to ensure a smooth and successful product launch. We have successfully delivered over 150 R&D and new product development projects for clients across industries, receiving recognition for our innovative solutions.
