E-mobility & Connected Vehicles

What we've done

Open firmware, on real vehicles.

We maintain Librescoot, a free and open-source replacement firmware for a connected European electric scooter platform, alongside Rescoot and the Sunshine fleet-telemetry platform. The original manufacturer walked away; the riders didn’t. So we built the firmware they should have had, and the cloud side that goes with it.

The stack spans the full vehicle: Yocto-based Linux distributions, real-time CAN to the motor controller, BLE peripherals, cellular telematics, on-device maps and routing, dual-battery hardware support, OTA delta updates sized for the cellular networks people actually have. It runs in the field, every day, on hardware that was supposed to be a brick by now.

That experience shapes how we think about e-mobility generally. The gap between marketing claims and working hardware is enormous in this space, and the constraints that actually matter rarely show up in pitch decks.

Embedded Linux & firmware

Yocto-based distributions, real-time subsystems, secure boot, container-isolated services, and the engineering discipline to keep recovery paths working when you can’t physically reach the device. A failed update on a vehicle is not a bad afternoon; it is a logistics problem. We design firmware stacks where that doesn’t happen.

Vehicle telematics & connectivity

Cellular modems, GNSS with dead-reckoning, on-device routing and offline maps, fleet telemetry that respects privacy, MQTT and Redis-backed IPC, OTA delta updates sized for the network you actually have rather than the one in the slide deck. We’ve debugged enough cellular dead zones and timing-corner races at 4am to know which patterns hold up.

Right-to-repair & lifespan extension

Many connected vehicles become unusable the moment the vendor steps away from the product. We’ve built the alternative: firmware that owners control, services that can move from vendor cloud to self-hosted, hardware modifications the original vendor never offered. That work has practical value for owners and operators, and increasing strategic value as the EU regulatory environment around right-to-repair, battery passports, and connected-vehicle data continues to shift.

Why us for e-mobility

We've operated this stack for real riders.

E-mobility companies tend to discover late that the hard part isn’t the vehicle, it’s the integration. Between firmware and cloud. Between mobile app and BLE. Between fleet operations and the realities of a battery that’s been sitting outside since November. Power management, OTA reliability, secure provisioning, key management, cellular footprint, regulatory exposure: these are where projects quietly drift off schedule.

We’ve been through all of it. If you’re building connected vehicles, fleet platforms, charging infrastructure, battery management systems, or anything that has to keep working in the field for years after the launch announcement, we’ve already been there.

Building something connected that moves?

Vehicles, fleets, charging, batteries, firmware: if it has to work in the wild for years, let’s talk.
