Co-pilot system for research scientists (Ongoing)

Patronus is a comprehensive co-pilot platform designed for innovators working at the frontier of experimental science. By seamlessly integrating smart glasses, environmental sensors, a digital twin of the lab, and AI-powered analysis, Patronus transforms the way experiments are conducted. It captures video, audio, and environmental data to enable real-time monitoring, automated documentation, and intelligent experiment guidance—all with an unwavering focus on lab compatibility, safety, and privacy.
At Patronus Tech, we believe technology should first empower those who push the boundaries of human knowledge. Today, research scientists still lose valuable time to manual documentation and routine monitoring tasks—delays that slow innovation globally. Patronus leverages AI, IoT, and XR technologies to reclaim that time, allowing scientists to focus entirely on discovery. Our mission is simple but profound: accelerate scientific breakthroughs by freeing researchers to do what they do best—advance our world.
