Book an UltraZohm Meeting

Book a free meeting with us to discuss the usage of our UltraZohm rapid control prototyping system for your application.

Control Algorithms

We develop leading-edge control algorithms based on model predictive control (MPC) and AI-based approaches (Reinforcement Learning) while offering a strong base of state-of-the-art algorithms like field-oriented control (FOC). We control grid converters, DC/DC, PMSM, ASM, reluctance machines, and special topologies.

UltraZohm

We develop and distribute the open source rapid control prototyping platform UltraZohm. The UltraZohm is aimed at power electronics applications as well as drive systems.

Head to the UltraZohm documentation for more technical details or book a meeting with us!

Control Boards

We offer and develop customer-specific control boards for power electronics and drives based on Xilinx SoC.

Founding Team

Employees and founders

Our team consists of experienced engineers and researchers in the realm of complex control algorithms for power electronics systems, motor control applications, and mechatronics. Our company was founded 2020 by five research assistants of TU München (TUM) and TH Nürnberg (THN). The team has grown with two additional employees, and some founders have left academia for industry positions.
