General information

Short Summary
The company offers an multi-industry compatible single board computer called as well as the software to enable ai driven processes e.g. in energy management of corporate office buildings, for autonomous industrial processes like fork-lifting, for robot and drone control as well as for source switching and control of electric vehicle chargers. The solution is comparable to Raspberry Pi but has advantages like dual Ethernet Ports and a Neural CPU, embedded Multi Media Card instead of SD-Card.
Full Description
The company is based in Germany and backed by a team of experienced international hard and software engineers.

In an era where artificial intelligence is changing multiple industries rapidly, there is a significant nagative impact on the environmental and data security posed by cloud servers.
The Single Board Computer board solves this problem by providing ai on a 87mm X 60mm single board computer to run ai in a local environment. The board is ready for companies to build their ai applications upon.
The board is provided with fundamental pre-built software such as RDP, MODBUS, In an era where artificial intelligence is changing multiple industries rapidly, there is a significant nagative impact on the environmental and data security posed by cloud servers.
The Single Board Computer board solves this problem by providing ai on a 87mm X 60mm single board computer to run ai in a local environment. The board is ready for companies to build their ai applications upon.
The board is provided with fundamental pre-built software such as RDP, MODBUS, BACNET, QT and NODE-RED and ai applications, e.g. EDGE-AI Facial Recognition.
All the above mentioned softwares can be run parallellely without overloading the CPU. This is especially helpful for building automation where the monitoring, measuring and control of equipment need to be carried out parallely.
Compared to Raspberry Pi, the Single Board Computer Board comes with dual Ethernet Ports, an embedded MultiMedia Card, a neural CPU and the NXP EdgeLock Security.
The sustainable design of the Single Board Computer Board consits of a Q7 Connector for i.MX6 and i.MX7 processors. This enables a seemless device upgrade of existing i.MX6 and i.MX7 based systems to neural processing for ai.
Existing facility management clients use the Single Board Computer for energy management and optimisation as well as for autonomous access control. The technology is compatible with a variety of sensors that can be delivered together with the solution.
Clients from transport and logistics industries can use the Single Board Computer to convert manual fork-lifts to autonomous fork-lifts.
The Single Board Computer can serve as a customisable robot and drone controller.
In the automotive industry, the Single Board Computer can be used for EV-charging systems.

The Types of cooperation sought after are :
• Business to Business commercial agreement
This refers to the hardware sale for the specific industry and application of the business customer.

• In software development: Application specific project agreement
The Application based software and hardware development on a project based contract.

• Distributor agreement: Distributor agreement
The distribution of the Single Board Computer board via the distribution channels.
The reason for the above mentioned cooperation is to sell the Single Board Computer in multiple industries and further development of custom applications for the client.

The Technological readiness level of the Single Board Computer board is 7 (system prototype demonstration in operational environment).

The solution is available in three packages:
• Basic: Hard and Software
• Developer: Hard and Software plus MIPI Camera and MIPI Display
• Project: incl. Customised Software Solutions for individual projects
Types of cooperation:
• Business to Business commercial agreement
• In software development: Application specific project agreement
• Distributor agreement
Advantages and Innovations
The basic firmware is included with the hardware (start-ups can begin developing their application very quickly without having to configure the hardware first).

The hardware can run parallel processes with little memory usage thanks to the neural processor on board.

Various components make the solution more resilient and flexible compared to Raspberry Pi, e.g.:
Dual ethernet ports, an embedded MultiMedia Card, a neural CPU and the NXP EdgeLock Security.
A Q7 Connector for i.MX6 and i.MX7 processors enables the seemless device upgrade for existing i.MX6 and i.MX7 systems.
An RPI connector allows plug-in of devices with a raspberry pi form factor.

10 years longevity is guaranteed.

Fundamental AI software suite is provided so that customers can focus on developing their ai applications.

Partner Sought

Expected Role of a Partner
The company is seeking clients from various industries as well as distribution partners:

A typical client from the facility management industry:
Corporate real-estate owners, servicing companies and schools or colleges who need building automation, energy monitoring and secure building access

A typical client from transport- and logistics industry:
Warehouse owners who have manual fork-lifts and would like to automate their fork-lifts to autonomous fork-lifts without scrapping their existing fork-lifts

A typical client from robotics and drone industry:
A robotics or drone manufacturer that would like to uprgade their controllers for high speed processing including ai.

A typical client from automotive industry / public authority:
Companies interested in building an EV charger can use the Single Board Computer for their purpose.

An ideal distributor should fulfill the following requirements:
Distributors should report the reach and visibility created for the product from their end on a weekly basis. They should contain standardized processing methods to make sure the product is not sold to unauthorized persons or for military uses.
