CELUS’s new Design Assistant creates a complete schematic while ensuring compatibility and reducing risk, the company said.

AUSTIN, Texas—CELUS, developer of an AI-assisted electronics design platform used by developers and engineers globally, recently introduced its next generation of AI-driven hardware design as part of its CELUS Design Platform, the company said in a release.

The CELUS Design Platform is reported to simplify the design process, accelerate time to market, and maximize opportunities to better meet customer needs. By automating component search and schematic generation, it is said to enable “quicker, more accurate designs while capturing all technical requirements and other objectives.” Its proprietary AI algorithms then analyze specs and capabilities of available components to offer guided suggestions.

According to the company, the new CELUS Design Assistant provides “true idea-to-canvas capabilities by creating full projects from a simple image or text command.”

“Designers can simply tell the CELUS Design Platform to ‘build a robotic arm,’ and an AI-enabled ‘assistant’ will create a system architecture required to satisfy the project,” the release stated. “The user then chooses a top-level component based on their preferred vendor, for instance, and a complete schematic of that design will be created, ensuring compatibility, reducing risk, and minimizing the time from plan to revenue.”

Benefits of using the CELUS Design Assistant are reported to include ease of use, reduced risk, and faster time to market. The complexity of electronic design is reduced as users navigate

through “a guided journey intended to help make the most appropriate choices for any given project,” the company said in the release. Eliminating the guesswork and research required in traditional component sourcing is said to simplify the design process and allow companies to generate revenue faster.

“With the new CELUS Design Assistant, a spark of imagination is all that is needed to bring electronic design ideas to fruition,” said Tobias Pohl, co-founder and CEO of CELUS, in a statement. “Literally take an image from a napkin, whiteboard, document, or simply input your thoughts into the CELUS Design Assistant, and our natural language models and AI algorithms will scour millions of components to create a menu of options to begin designing your device. CELUS will then guide your design journey by generating a high-level design based on preferences you choose.”
