Partner Spotlight: Embotech AG
Who is Embotech AG?
Embotech, short for Embedded optimization technologies was founded in 2013 as a spin-off from the ETH Zurich. Embotech is a leading developer of cutting-edge decision-making solutions. Our embeddable software empowers autonomous systems to make decisions by solving complex optimization problems in milliseconds, bringing significant improvements in safety, productivity and energy efficiency. Current applications include automotive, industrial solutions and aerospace.
What does Embotech AG do?
The company focuses on providing software solutions for the adoption of optimal decision making, i.e. systems that make decisions by solving optimization problems, which increase the productivity, energy efficiency and life time of industrial machines. Embotech’s high-level tools enable application domain experts to use the power of optimization-based design in very demanding applications without having to worry about complex low-level implementation details.
Embotech AG provides services in Automotive, Industrial and Aerospace industries.
Embotech’s FORCES PRO
What is Embotech’s FORCESPRO:
Embotech’s FORCESPRO targets optimal control and estimation problems with high speed requirements. Its graphical design interface allows you to get started with optimal control in under 5 minutes. Simply import a model of your process, define your objectives and system limits, and press a button to obtain tailored high-performance code ready for deployment in your target embedded platform. It has never been easier to embed optimization-based controllers in your product. Our solvers represent the state-of-the-art in embedded optimization and can be several orders of magnitude faster than commercial general-purpose alternatives.
Using Embotech’s FORCESPRO at MIT Driverless:
“While developing model predictive control, Embotech's FORCESPRO is crucial to setting up a complex optimization problem while keeping very low latency. With this tool we hope to control the car by understanding it like professional drivers to gain an competitive edge on the track.”
-Adam P, Controls Co-Lead of MIT Driverless
