Current Focus Areas
Intelligent systems and energy & industry
KyperX currently applies its capabilities across Intelligent Systems and Energy & Industry. Each focus area combines research, systems engineering, technology evaluation, techno-economic analysis and staged development.
Focus area
Intelligent Systems
Intelligent systems connect information with action, in software, in computing infrastructure or in physical machines. KyperX’s work spans AI, computing, sensing, automation and robotics.
AI & Automation
Commercial AI engineering is delivered through KyperX AI.
Compute Architecture
Where computation runs and how it connects to the wider system.
Robotics & Intelligent Physical Systems
Sensing, computation and actuation within machines.
Modular Systems
Research into reusable modules connected through a common interface.
- Environment
- Sensing / input
- Data
- Compute
- Intelligence
- Decision
- Application / actuation
Feedback returns to the environment.
Architecture of an intelligent system, with feedback from effect to observation.
Focus area
Energy & Industry
Energy-intensive industry depends on the relationships between generation, storage, conversion, equipment and production. KyperX evaluates technologies against those relationships.
Renewable Electricity
Supply assessed against industrial demand.
Energy Storage
Power, energy, duration and timing as design constraints.
Hydrogen
Electricity converted into an industrial input.
Industrial Systems
Capacity, equipment, process boundaries and techno-economic dependencies.
Green Iron & Steel
Suitable iron-bearing feed, hydrogen-based reduction and electric steelmaking considered as one development pathway.
- Generation
- Electricity
Reaches the industrial load
- Direct
- Storage
- Conversion → hydrogen
- Industrial load / input
- Production
- Material / product
Electricity reaches production directly, through storage or through conversion. Each route needs different infrastructure.
