be the expert!
Machines are everywhere nowadays, from our cities to our factories and homes. The industry is facing a revolution, and there is a lack of people, skill and time to make it happen. This is where the nea platform comes in, allowing you to be an expert.
No technical knowledge is needed.
10x more tools than the alternatives, out-of-the-box
Fully manufacturer independent
Reduce your time-to-line up to 60%.
Reduce up to 68% of your project software costs
We are a low-code platform, with tens of tools already out-of-the-box. nea platform allows you to build software specialized in intelligent systems where a mix of artificial intelligence, computer vision, robotics and automation is needed to be successful.
Why Nea
This fast-paced and digital world brings many benefits to our population, but it also presents its challenges. To build, operate and maintain all this technology, companies are facing a triple problem:
> Lack of skilled professionals: no adequately trained people available (in 2018 we had more than 3.7 million tech jobs posted in the USA alone) and, to make things worst, the AI skill is the most desired one;
> Unique set of skills: a mixed knowledge of computer vision, artificial intelligence and robotics is necessary to operate in this new industrial revolution;
> Lack of time: with this fast-moving world, companies need to significantly reduce it’s time to market. Otherwise, they will quickly run out of business;
At Neadvance, we have been implementing computer vision, artificial intelligence, and robot guidance to factory shop floors, roads, and hospitals for the past 15 years. With this commutative knowledge, we’ve built several accelerators, which allowed us to improve our delivery performance year after year and, we now want to share it with the world around us. As our CEO, Teresa Martins, usually says, “no one needs to be an expert in this field. They need the right tools for the job”. And NEA Platform is born.
NEA Platform represents these 15 years of experience with a low-code approach to computer vision, artificial intelligence, and robotics. It enables others without software development knowledge, with the capability to build and maintain state-of-the-art computer programs that can run in a factory, a robot, a house, or even a city.
NEA was architectured with professionals in mind, and all the challenges they face in their everyday tasks are built over three essential components:
> NEA Cloud: is where all the projects, component templates, users and payments live. It’s the place with an aggregated view of everything you ever made using NEA.
Nea Cloud is home to NEA Marketplace as well as where you can buy or sell other components.
> NEA IDE: It’s installed on every computer and allows your technicians to build those fantastic programs that will control other machines. It will enable you to work offline, but it needs to be connected to the cloud from time-to-time to get the latest components or templates to save your projects and send aggregated data for future analysis.
> NEA ENGINE: deployed (using NEA IDE) in the machine, It’s the system responsible for Interfacing with the machine and for executing the programs you create. It works entirely offline, and it only needs to be connected to the NEA IDE for a new deployment or a debug session; otherwise, it’s fully autonomous.
