Research & Build Log
Technical writeups on autonomous systems AI, on-device inference, agentic mission planning, and the hardware build process.
Cloud APIs offer more capable models, but latency and connectivity requirements make them a non-starter for autonomous operations in the field. We walk through the decision criteria and what we gave up to run entirely on local hardware.
Read more →Modern autopilots handle flight autonomy well. What they don't provide is mission reasoning — understanding what "inspect turbine 7" means and translating it into a flight plan. This is the gap AeroCognition is built to close.
Read more →An honest account of selecting the frame, motors, ESCs, flight controller, and compute stack. What we got wrong the first time, what we changed, and the state of the build after the first power-on.

Writing takes time when you're also building the hardware. Follow on LinkedIn for build updates as they happen.
