Selected POCs

Evidence before expansion.

A POC should reduce uncertainty. These selected collaborations illustrate how Quantum frames a real problem, brings in a relevant technology, and creates a practical route to validation.

StartupSectorQuestion to answer
01

CorrActions

Automotive

Detect deteriorating driver cognitive state without adding head-worn hardware.

Technology

Software that reads involuntary muscular micro-movements through sensors already found in vehicles.

POC focus

Test signal quality and the technology’s ability to identify fatigue, inattention, and impairment in a relevant vehicle context.

02

Actasys

Automotive

Keep cameras and sensors clear enough for ADAS and autonomous systems to operate safely.

Technology

ActaJet, an electronically controlled system that generates focused air jets at the sensor surface.

POC focus

Evaluate cleaning performance and integration considerations in the operating conditions that matter to industry.

03

Tactile Mobility

Automotive

Create useful vehicle and road insight without installing another layer of hardware.

Technology

Software and machine learning that derive road and vehicle dynamics from existing sensor data.

POC focus

Assess the quality and operational value of derived insights in a defined mobility use case.

04

Maradin

Industry 4.0

Make compact, precise laser scanning practical for advanced industrial and mobility applications.

Technology

A proprietary MEMS-based laser scanning platform for sensing, projection, and communication.

POC focus

Test the scanning solution against a concrete partner application and its technical constraints.

05

Coreteel

Industry 4.0

Reduce corrosion while simplifying how protective materials are applied.

Technology

Environmentally considerate materials applied by spraying or dipping at room temperature.

POC focus

Validate application, protection, and fit for an industrial operating environment.

What good proof looks like

Specific enough to decide.

Quantum does not publish outcome numbers that have not been approved for disclosure. Credibility starts with being clear about what a POC was designed to prove.

01

The problem is owned

A partner champion is accountable for the need and the access required to test it.

02

The scope is controlled

The smallest responsible test is defined before execution begins.

03

Success is observable

Criteria are agreed in advance, across both technical and business dimensions.

04

The next decision is known

Everyone understands what the evidence can unlock—and what it cannot.
