Mechatronics Prototyping for Nyrraby

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 Nyrraby 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 deep understanding of your requirements. We collaborate closely with you to capture detailed project specifications, identify potential engineering trade-offs, and develop a detailed integration plan. This iterative approach ensures that your project progresses efficiently, with regular design reviews and feedback opportunities to ensure alignment with your vision.

We maintain an in-house prototyping lab equipped with advanced tools and technologies to support rapid hardware and software development, testing, and refinement. Our engineers have access to a wide range of materials and components, enabling them to create functional prototypes that accurately represent your envisioned product.

Beyond physical prototyping, we offer comprehensive support throughout the entire product development journey. Our team can assist with requirements capture, technical feasibility assessments, production-readiness planning, and handover to manufacturing. We also embrace remote collaboration, seamlessly connecting with clients across Australia to facilitate effective communication and progress updates.

Whether you require assistance with proof-of-concept work, prototype refinement, design reviews, or technical feasibility assessments, COLETEK is your trusted partner in mechatronics prototyping.
