RoboSpark
6-week build
Fixed scope, fixed fee. One workcell, one acceptance test suite. Ideal for proving feasibility before capital allocation.

How we engineer robotics builds
RoboSpark delivers fixed-scope engineering engagements across perception, motion and control. Every service line ends with documented, bench-tested hardware — not slide decks.
01 / Perception engineering
Machine vision & sensor fusion
We design camera rigs, lighting setups and inference pipelines matched to your SKU catalogue, ambient conditions and cycle-time budget. Our perception team trains models on data captured in the lab using your actual parts — not stock ImageNet subsets that fail on the floor.
Deliverables include calibrated camera extrinsics, ONNX or TensorRT exports, retraining scripts and latency benchmarks on your target compute platform. We support 2D detection, 6-DOF pose estimation, depth segmentation and barcode decoding at line speed.
- Multi-camera calibration and hand-eye alignment
- Synthetic data augmentation for rare defect classes
- Edge deployment on Jetson, Intel NUC or custom IPC
02 / Motion systems
Kinematics, grasping & mobile bases
From six-axis arms to AMR-mounted manipulators, we specify actuators, design custom end-effectors and tune trajectory planners for repeatability under load. Force-torque sensing, vacuum cups, parallel jaw grippers and tool changers are all in our standard toolkit.
Safety-rated stop circuits, collaborative speed limits and zone monitoring are integrated from day one — not bolted on after the demo video ships. Every motion sequence is recorded with timestamped joint logs for regression comparison.
03 / Control & integration
Embedded software & field handover
Our firmware group writes ROS 2 nodes, PLC communication bridges and operator HMI panels that your maintenance staff can actually read. Remote diagnostics, OTA update channels and structured log export come standard on every engagement above two weeks.
We integrate with existing MES, WMS and ERP hooks where required. API documentation follows OpenAPI specs; source code lands in your Git repository with tagged releases matching physical serial numbers.
Engagement models
Three ways to work with the lab
Monthly allocation
Dedicated engineer hours for iterative refinement, model retraining and field issue response across multiple cells.
2-week assessment
Independent review of an existing robotics deployment — architecture, safety gaps, maintenance burden and upgrade path.
Tooling & standards
Software and hardware we deploy daily
Our lab standardises on ROS 2 Humble for middleware, SolidWorks and Fusion 360 for mechanical design, and PyTorch for perception training. We maintain site licences for RoboDK, Visual Components and oscilloscope suites from Keysight and Tektronix. Safety validation follows CSA Z434 and ISO 10218 where applicable to your jurisdiction.
Clients receive a technology stack document at architecture lock listing every library version, firmware hash and dependency licence. That transparency prevents the "works in the lab, breaks in production" scenario when your internal team takes ownership.
