Mechatronics Prototyping for Tutye

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 Tutye 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 detailed specifications, identify potential trade-offs, and develop a detailed engineering plan. This ensures that your project is anchored in practical considerations from the outset.

We leverage our state-of-the-art prototyping lab to bring your ideas to life. Our engineers employ rapid iteration and testing methodologies to refine prototypes, address technical challenges, and optimize performance. This iterative approach fosters continuous learning and refinement throughout the process.

Beyond technical expertise, we understand the importance of seamless collaboration and effective communication. Our team works seamlessly with clients across regional and metropolitan areas, leveraging remote collaboration tools and periodic design reviews to maintain transparency and alignment.

Whether you require assistance with proof-of-concept work, prototype refinement, design reviews, or production-readiness planning, COLETEK is your trusted partner. We have a proven track record of delivering successful mechatronics projects for clients in diverse industries, and we are confident that we can tailor our services to meet your specific needs.
