WHAT IS COGNITRONICS?

• Cognitronics, i.e. cognitive electronics deals with electronic systems that can adapt to changing conditions and that are energy  efficient.
• Cognitronics is a key enabler in nearly all modern applications, including industry, health, automotive, space and many more

OUR EXPERTISE:

• Electronics system design
• Methods and techniques for miniaturized actuators and sensor technologies
• Resource-constrained implementation of wireless technologies
• Methods for sensors’ data processing, decision-making, and actuation. 

WHICH PROBLEMS CAN WE SOLVE?

• Defining and analysing electronics systems specifications and requirements
• Surveying, selecting or defining state-of-the-art architectures, methods, technologies, and tools for the design and implementation of electronics systems.

HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?

Consultancy:

• Consultations related to the analysis of applications and use-cases that already rely on, or can potentially benefit from cognitive electronics.
• Consultations related to the research and development of methods, algorithms, and technologies.

Prototypes, test beds:

• Development of cognitive electronics lab prototypes and test beds.
