PRODUCT · 02 · PROJECT AURORA

Machines that
see themselves.

Project Aurora is autonomous physical intelligence for industrial infrastructure. Computer vision and AI monitor machines, detect early warning signs, predict failure, and protect the people working alongside them.

02 — VISUAL DIAGNOSTICS

Cracks appear as heat
long before they break.

Aurora's vision stack runs continuous spatial inference on every asset in view — detecting micro-deflections, surface fatigue, vibration anomalies and thermal drift that human inspections miss until it's too late.

The output isn't an alarm. It's a probability surface — where on the machine the next failure is most likely, with how much confidence, on what horizon.

03 — SIGNAL STACK

Six signals.
One verdict.

Aurora fuses vision, acoustic, thermal, vibration, current, and operator context into a single asset-level health verdict — updated continuously, explained when challenged.

CH · 01 · VISION

RGB + Depth

Continuous object-level segmentation of every asset. Identifies wear, missing fasteners, leaks, and PPE violations.

CH · 02 · ACOUSTIC

Ultrasonic Listening

Microphone arrays trained on each asset's healthy signature. Aurora hears bearings degrade weeks before they fail.

CH · 03 · THERMAL

Infrared Drift

Long-wave thermal imaging across every asset. Tracks micro-trends invisible to any single inspection.

CH · 04 · VIBRATION

Spectral Anomaly

FFT decomposition with per-asset frequency baselines. Anomalous bands lighten months before mechanical failure.

CH · 05 · CURRENT

Motor Current Signature

Sub-cycle current waveform analysis. Detects rotor faults, misalignment, and load anomalies in real time.

CH · 06 · OPERATOR

Context Stream

Shift logs, work orders, parts changes. The human context that turns a signal into a verdict.

04 — A FAILURE, REWOUND

14 days before
the breakdown.

A motor on Line A failed at 03:42 on a Tuesday. Here's what Aurora saw, in order. And what the alternative looked like.

D-14 · 09:12

Acoustic baseline drift detected

Subtle 0.4% deviation in the 3.2 kHz band. Below human alert threshold. Logged.

D-09 · 14:38

Thermal trend confirmed

Bearing housing trending 0.6 °C above 30-day baseline. Maintenance ticket auto-drafted.

D-05 · 22:04

Vision anomaly · grease seepage

Sub-millimeter glint detected near drive end. Confidence 0.91.

D-02 · 06:00

Combined verdict · Replace bearing

All four channels confirm. Aurora schedules replacement in the next planned window.

D-00 · ACTION

Bearing replaced. No downtime.

14-minute swap during a planned changeover. Asset back to baseline within an hour.

WITHOUT AURORA
$840,000

Unplanned 9-hour line stoppage. Cascading damage to downstream gearbox. Expedited parts. Lost shift output. Three injury near-misses.

WITH AURORA
$3,200

Bearing cost. Planned-window labor. Zero stoppage. Zero injuries. The signal arrived in time.

DEPLOY AURORA

The next failure
doesn't have to happen.

Aurora deploys as an on-premise vision and sensor stack with cloud-side analytics. We work with operations and reliability teams to map assets, train baselines, and integrate with the CMMS and SCADA you already run.
