Is it true in the real world?

The Lab

A lab that measures.

Beyond the products, the lab works on two things: grounding AI in the physical world, and making intelligence cheaper to run. Both follow one rule: validate a source before you trust it.

Plate VI / The SurveyDrag to turn

The Survey. A survey passes over the terrain. Ground it has measured is drawn in firm ink; the rest stays a faint guess.

How it works

    01

    Gather

    Start from free public data.

    02

    Register

    Align every layer to the most trusted measurement available.

    03

    Reject

    Test each source against the ground and drop what fails.

    04

    Ship light

    Encode it so it loads on ordinary hardware.

What it does

Research and reference builds

01

geo3d

Rebuilds real places as verified, lightweight 3D scenes that run in a browser, from free public data. The reference build is a mountain valley; a second scene covers Gisenyi on Lake Kivu, in Rwanda.

02

Checked against the ground

Every layer is registered against the best available measurement and its error is reported, not assumed.

03

Rejecting bad data

Candidate datasets are tested against ground truth before they are used. Ones that fail are left out, however convenient they are.

04

Light enough for a phone

Scenes stream in pieces as plain static files and run in a phone-class browser.

05

Smaller models

Compression and quantisation research aimed at capable language models that fit in very little space, for devices that are offline or on slow connections.

06

WarpLab

An open-source tuner for GPU code, in early beta: edit, compile, validate, benchmark, and keep a change only if the result is still correct.
