Enabling Sustainability with Interface Engineering

Intelligence on every cell! Dukosi develops revolutionary technologies that dramatically improve the performance, safety, and efficiency of battery systems, and enable a more sustainable battery value chain. Our unique chip-on-cell monitoring solution and communication platform is specifically designed for electric vehicles (EV), industrial transportation, and stationary battery energy storage markets. The Dukosi chip-on-cell solution measures, monitors, and stores temperature and voltage at each cell and delivers all information to the main BMS controller via contactless communication using C-SynQ®. This is our proprietary communication protocol and has been designed specifically for large (battery-size) networks in safety-critical environments. Designed from the ground up, it offers robust communications with essential data synchronization, yet also with the capacity to be configured for any number of battery cells without additional design overhead. Cell-level monitoring and management of all cells in the BMS can unlock more energy per cell, improving performance while ensuring battery longevity. Apply Dukosi’s chip-on-cell technology early in the cell manufacturing process and start 24/7 monitoring and data and event logging from day-1 of manufacture to end-of-life. On-cell lifetime traceability can extend the useful life of the battery/cells, streamlining their transfer into next-life applications, helping meet regulatory compliance, and creating a sustainable battery value chain.

SilverX Fund is a venture capital firm backing Indias deep-tech AI future with a focus on the non-disruptible. As Fund 2 from Silverneedle Ventures, we deploy early-stage capital into startups building defensible technology across AI infrastructure, quantum computing, semiconductors, advanced materials, space, defense, robotics, and autonomous systems. Investment Philosophy We invest where deep science meets engineering, companies building IP-led, first-principles innovation that cannot be shortcut even with unlimited capital. Our focus areas include: Deep Science and Engineering: Semiconductors, advanced materials, quantum computing where R&D journeys are irreplicable Regulatory and Infrastructure Embedment: Space, defense, energy, power grid, where switching costs are prohibitive Physical-AI Convergence: Robotics, health tech, autonomous systems where neither software nor hardware alone wins Domain-Expert Founders: Decade-deep context that doesnt transfer, it compounds

FormFactor FRT Metrology manufactures 3D surface measurement technology for research and production. Our high-precision measuring instruments are based on SurfaceSensTM multi-sensor concept and are equipped with in-house developed software. The multiple award-winning measuring systems provide (also fully automatically) information about topography, step height, roughness, layer thickness and many other parameters, contact-free and non-destructive. Depending on the application, different measuring methods can be combined with point, line, area and layer thickness sensors and atomic force microscopy in one measuring instrument - measuring ranges can vary from meters to sub-nanometers. The FormFactor FRT MicroProf® is well established in semiconductor front end, advanced packaging, MEMS, VCSEL, automotive, engineering and optics. FormFactor, Inc. is a leading provider of essential test and measurement technologies along the full IC life cycle – from characterization, modeling, reliability, and design de-bug, to qualification and production test.
