Universal Mobile Power Architecture
Enabled a standardized power platform capable of operating across heterogeneous energy sources, significantly reducing deployment constraints for mobile operations across multiple industries.
Situation
A mobile systems manufacturer required a power architecture that could operate reliably across widely varying environments, including residential, commercial, and off-grid scenarios. Existing solutions were fragmented, requiring manual configuration and limiting operational flexibility.
Solution
Designed and implemented a multi-source power ingestion and normalization system capable of accepting heterogeneous inputs and delivering stable 120/240V AC distribution alongside 12V and 24V DC subsystem rails.
