Product overview1 text field

INORA offers OI Core Technology as a unified numerical certainty platform that enables the determination of absolute structure and ideal condition in any data set. The core technology is built on three key components: Numerical Balancing (for finding ideal center points), Numerical Certainty (for error-free matrix calculations), and Numerical Validation (for primal-dual verification). This core platform powers a portfolio of manufacturing measurement products including ASYS (inline/offline measurement control), SRS (3D metrology verification), WiseGap (wireless multi-gap measurement), OmniGap (single gap handheld measurement), and OmniSlam (door closing analysis). Additionally, INORA licenses software module libraries (OI Geometric Library for geometric functional models; OI Decision Making Library for autonomous systems) and offers domain-specific applications for radar processing, medical data evaluation, planetary analysis, and martial arts training, with custom solutions available for specialized industry needs.
