PassiveLogic’s truly autonomous control of buildings and more is enabled by the use of physics-based digital twin simulations. To match these simulations to the real world and use them to make optimal control decisions, we need to be able to run these simulations faster than real-time.

While the bulk of controlled systems operate within the built world, only cars have received any attention (and funding) from the world of autonomous systems. Yet there are no platforms for autonomy for the built world.

When building an ecosystem of hardware and software products that enable generative autonomy, it’s all hands on deck. Every line of code and every unit test is a necessary piece to achieving the goals in PassiveLogic’s product architecture (the masterplan, if you will.)

At PassiveLogic, a key component of our product evaluation process is asking ourselves, “Have we met the objectives of the original design?” If we develop tools that enable people to solve problems in an elegant and straightforward way, then we’ve done our job. If not, we go back to the drawing board.

As we continue to grow beyond our 100 employee milestone, the demands of collaboration are greater, and it becomes even more important that we develop processes to stay aligned.

The iPhone App Store launched 15 years ago, and transformed the way that we make, use, and obtain software. Read this reflection from Brad Larson, Head of Compiler at PassiveLogic.

For the vast majority of programmers, when our code doesn’t build or doesn’t run correctly it’s almost always our fault. The compiler is pretty much the last thing we blame. However, at PassiveLogic, we push the limits of the Swift programming language by using an experimental language feature and helping in its evolution.

International Women in Engineering Day honors women in engineering roles around the world, highlighting their contributions, creativity, and leadership that drive their industries forward. The need to cultivate an interest in engineering among women, and support those women is acute.
