Enterprise
Creating new services from distributed data

Perception

Our AI perception services help elevate the value of machines through real-world, real-time interpretation of complex data sets and advanced sensing inputs. This enables machines to understand the world around them with astonishing clarity. 

Our state-of-the-art data science skills and simulation techniques enable you to gain clarity in various domains, from helping farmers detect crop health to enabling healthcare professionals to make precise diagnoses. Our solutions bring intelligence to the forefront of decision-making. 

Decision

Collecting and correctly interpreting data is the start, but true intelligence comes from making the best, informed decision and take optimal actions. Getting this right will foster better collaboration between machines and humans. 

We can help you enhance machine performance through the power of intelligent decision-making in areas such as co-ordinating national infrastructure, autonomous platforms, or deploying reinforcement learning agents

Edge

Edge AI unlocks transformative products and services by deploying artificial intelligence beyond traditional data centres. We work with clients to overcome size, cost, power and connectivity constraints, with pioneering edge AI solutions.

Our track record includes signal processing in billions of mobile phones and AI integration in smart inhalers, generating billions of dollars of value for our clients. Trust us to create and optimise world-leading silicon platforms, shaping the future of AI. 

Enterprise

Data is ubiquitous, holding the power to transform organisations and revolutionise markets. We can support the creation of data-driven service concepts that address real-world needs with agility and impact.

Our team consists of experts in data science, big data, user experience, physics, and device-to-cloud engineering. They have the ability to transform your organization and revolutionize your market. 

We can help you achieve the seemingly impossible

Pedigree & prowess

For decades, global corporations, governments and policy makers have turned to us to understand and harness the potential of data science and artificial intelligence.

From a heritage in Bayesian inference and hard, real-time signal processing, we’re now advancing the state-of-the-art in deep learning, creating world-leading sensing systems and pushing the limits of device performance.

Tech, tools & facilities

AI infrastructure datalab

AI infrastructure

Our onsite compute infrastructure allows us to explore options, train and test models more rapidly and get better results.

 

We run petaflop-scale, containerised compute on site, with multiple NVIDIA DGX-1 Deep Learning Supercomputers and other GPU and FPGA-accelerated servers. This links to petabyte-scale local NetApp storage, project-specific cloud and our continuous integration systems.

Data, development & test labs

Data, development & test labs

With one petabyte local storage and specialised hardware for telecoms chassis design, machine learning development and more, this facility allows us to develop, test and operate new cloud-ready digital services rapidly in a secure environment.

 

It enables rapid end-to-end prototyping and experimentation of sensitive concepts. We work across the full spectrum of cloud service providers, supporting both public and private infrastructures.

Facility Continuous-integration software

Scalable software test facility

Continuous integration (CI) is central to building and delivering high-quality software. Our virtualised CI test facility enables us to test complex software at scale, with or without hardware in the loop, to identify problems earlier and fix them faster. It provides a clean, isolated virtual build environment, pre-loaded with industry-leading tools such as Coverity static analysis. CI testing is integrated with our version control, enabling every software revision to be automatically built, tested on real hardware and analysed.
