Laxaro — Industrial R&D

Sensing and observability for industrial environments.

Exploratory research in instrument and sensor integration, data acquisition and process diagnostics for harsh mining and industrial settings.

Current stage

Laxaro is an exploratory research initiative in industrial sensing and instrumentation for harsh mining and industrial settings. It is a collection of early concepts and prototypes, not installed systems, site pilots, or commercial products.

Research axes

Four lines of inquiry.

  1. 01

    Instrument & sensor integration

    Exploring how different sensing instruments can be connected and read consistently.

  2. 02

    Data acquisition

    Prototyping pipelines for collecting structured and unstructured sensor data in demanding physical environments.

  3. 03

    Process diagnostics

    Exploring how acquired data could support diagnostics for industrial processes and equipment.

  4. 04

    Observability for harsh environments

    Researching monitoring approaches suited to dust, vibration, heat and remote operation.
