ABOUT GlaucusAI Labs

Technology with a practical purpose.

GlaucusAI Labs develops intelligent IoT solutions, AI assistants and digital learning tools for businesses, university laboratories, research centres and company R&D teams.

Our areas of development connect equipment performance and energy efficiency with AI-assisted knowledge management, business and research workflows, and digital skills. We shape each application around a defined operational, research or learning need.

We also support cloud application development, migration and deployment, connecting our specialist services with the infrastructure needed for everyday use.

Our approach starts with understanding the need, then developing and evaluating practical applications with attention to usability and the intended working context.

PROJECTS / COMMERCIAL REFRIGERATION

IoT Monitoring & Maintenance for Commercial Refrigeration

An application under development to explore how equipment data can support condition monitoring, maintenance decisions and energy performance assessment in commercial refrigeration.

Project stage: development. The current implementation brings together historical equipment readings, forecasts and alerts. Further development evaluates the analytical indicators and their usefulness for maintenance decisions.
CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION

Equipment behaviour, in context.

Our refrigeration dashboard brings together recorded measurements, forecasts and alerts, helping technical teams review changes in equipment behaviour over time.

Adapted refrigeration dashboard for Cold Room A: recorded and forecast daily temperature and superheat during September 2026, with selected deviation and threshold alerts.
Current dashboard overview.
01 / OPERATING TRENDS

Follow equipment behaviour

Review cold room temperature, cooling demand, EEV valve opening and evaporation temperature, with superheat where available. Select a cold room and move through its recorded history in the application.

02 / ACTUAL VS FORECAST

Compare readings and forecasts

Compare recorded daily values with forecasts from the previous day. View temperature setpoints alongside the measurements to support interpretation of operating conditions.

03 / ALERTS IN CONTEXT

Review signals for investigation

Review deviations, threshold proximity, trends and rule-based alerts with their supporting measurements. Relate alerts to the equipment history and mark known incidents for technical review.

Technical approach

Start with a defined refrigeration unit, establish which measurements are available, and assess whether they can provide useful maintenance information.

From equipment data to informed maintenance decisions.

  1. Data acquisition

    Collect available sensor, controller and meter readings.

  2. Data preparation

    Align timestamps, integrate readings and check data quality.

  3. Condition analysis

    Compare expected behaviour, deviations and operating trends.

  4. Maintenance decision support

    Present indicators and alerts for technical investigation.

  5. Evaluation & refinement

    Review findings against technical assessments, maintenance records and energy data where available.

Evaluation feeds back into analysis

↳ Evaluation findings feed back into condition analysis.

Energy performance assessment. Where energy consumption measurements are available, we examine them alongside equipment behaviour and operating conditions, comparing changes against relevant baselines to assess potential efficiency improvements.

DEVELOPMENT & EVALUATION

From measurements to useful evidence.

The current dashboard supports historical review of refrigeration measurements, forecasts and alerts. Further evaluation will compare these indicators with technical assessments and maintenance records where available.

Evaluation will examine data completeness, the relevance of detected deviations, false alerts and the usefulness of the information for maintenance decisions. Where labelled events are available, detection performance and warning time can also be assessed.

Development and evaluation focus on the usefulness of maintenance indicators and the assessment of energy performance under relevant operating conditions.

PROJECTS / AI ASSISTANTS

Tailored AI Assistants for Business & Research

A project approach for connecting selected documents and organisational knowledge with focused assistants that support everyday work and research tasks.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

From information to useful support.

The assistant is shaped around a defined task and a selected set of sources, helping users find relevant information, prepare documents and work through agreed steps.

Selected knowledge. Focused assistance. Reviewed outcomes.

  1. Selected information

    Manuals, procedures, project records, publications and technical documentation relevant to the task.

  2. Tailored AI assistant

    Task instructions, retrieval of relevant source material and support for clearly defined workflow steps.

  3. User review & use

    Responses with source references, draft documents and suggested next steps for the user to check.

01 / KNOWLEDGE ACCESS

Find and use relevant information

Ask questions across selected documents and review the supporting sources. The scope can cover organisational procedures, technical guidance or research project knowledge.

02 / DOCUMENT SUPPORT

Prepare and review documents

Support summarising, drafting and reviewing reports or research documentation, using agreed instructions and reference material, with the user checking the output.

03 / WORKFLOW ASSISTANCE

Support repeatable tasks

Guide users through defined steps, such as gathering information, preparing a structured draft and checking completeness, with review and approval points agreed in advance.

Technical approach

Start with a specific working need, identify the relevant knowledge and assess whether the assistant provides useful, dependable support for that task.

From a defined need to an evaluated assistant.

  1. Task & scope

    Define the users, working need, expected outputs and review responsibilities.

  2. Knowledge preparation

    Select and organise relevant sources, checking access permissions and document quality.

  3. Assistant configuration

    Configure task instructions, source retrieval, response format and workflow steps.

  4. Evaluation

    Test representative tasks for accuracy, source support, completion time and user corrections.

  5. Refinement & use

    Review findings with users, refine the assistant and agree how it will be maintained.

Findings inform assistant refinement

↳ Evaluation and user feedback inform assistant refinement.

DEVELOPMENT & EVALUATION

Useful support, assessed in context.

Evaluation uses representative business or research tasks and relevant source material, with users reviewing the assistant’s responses and the work required to correct them.

The assessment considers factual accuracy, whether references support the response, task completion time and the corrections required. Tests also examine how the assistant handles questions that the selected sources cannot answer.

The intended users may include business teams, university laboratories, research centres and company R&D teams. Each application is developed around its own knowledge sources and working practices.
