Reconfigurable Edge Systems for African Agriculture
Building ultra-low-power, solar-harvesting, FPGA-accelerated edge systems designed specifically to operate completely off-grid in challenging rural environments.
The Reconfigurable Edge Sentinel (RES) Platform
A modular family of ultra-low-power, infrastructure-independent embedded systems built to deploy advanced hardware capabilities where networks and grid power do not exist.
Co-Processing Matrix
Combines the architectural efficiency of an STM32H7 microcontroller with a Lattice iCE40 FPGA. Offload intensive filtering, acoustic analysis, and DSP routines directly to silicon.
Off-Grid LoRa Topology
Long-range telemetry engineered around Semtech SX1262 transceivers. Optimized layouts, custom helical matching networks, and robust codebases ensure packet tracking across extreme distances.
Aggressive Power Controls
Designed explicitly for smallholder configurations. Solar energy harvesting utilizing high-efficiency MPPT matching paired with rigorous hardware line isolation to drop deep sleep currents below 50 µA.
Product Architecture Family
Shared HDL building blocks and firmware core deployed across highly targeted sensor variants.
