Mechatronics Prototyping for Avenel

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).

COLETEK empowers businesses in Avenel, Shepparton Central North, Victoria, Australia, to seamlessly transform innovative ideas into tangible products through comprehensive mechatronics prototyping services. Our team of experienced engineers collaborates with clients from diverse industries to refine requirements, capture technical nuances, and deliver prototypes that meet expectations.

We understand the importance of iterative design and testing throughout the process. Our in-house prototyping lab facilitates rapid refinement of prototypes, while our remote collaboration infrastructure enables seamless interaction regardless of location. This ensures efficient progress from initial concept to production-readiness.

Our mechatronics prototyping services encompass the entire spectrum of activities, from feasibility assessments and design reviews to production-readiness planning and handover. We seamlessly integrate advanced technologies such as robotics, electronics, embedded systems, and AI into your projects.

Whether you require a proof-of-concept demonstration, iterative refinement of your design, or comprehensive production-readiness planning, COLETEK is your trusted partner. Our proven track record of successful projects across industries demonstrates our ability to deliver tangible results that exceed expectations.
