What problem does Neuron Industries solve?
Traditional industrial controls engineering (PLCs, ladder logic, vendor IDEs) is slow, taking weeks per project, with fragmented separate tools for the HMI, historian, and IDE.
What's Neuron Industries's solution?
Neuron Industries builds the Cortex AIC, an AI-programmable industrial controller that replaces the PLC, HMI package, historian, and vendor IDE, letting engineers describe machine behavior in plain English to generate real-time code.
What makes Neuron Industries different?
The page cites a case study replacing a 1991 Siemens S5 controller across 189 hardwired I/O points in an 8-hour cutover with about three hours of engineering, plus stated specs of a 4000Hz max scan rate, 0.5µs jitter, and $0 software/runtime licenses.
