The Hardware Bottleneck AI Can’t Fix
Software engineering has developed powerful tools for observability, data management, and continuous testing, but hardware engineering has largely not kept pace. The feedback loops, tooling, and infrastructure that software engineers take for granted simply do not exist in most hardware programs. Nominal is a data platform built to help hardware organizations move at the
Autonomous Drone Delivery at Scale
Autonomous drone delivery has long been the stuff of science fiction, but ongoing advances have moved the space from experimental to operational.
