Realize Ascent Labs

Realize Ascent Labs provides practical and scalable solutions to integrate advanced technology into real-world applications across various sectors, including agriculture and advanced manufacturing. The company focuses on bridging the gap between research, operations, and commercial success by offering a range of services such as high-resolution 3D scanning for wear analysis, 3D printing for rapid prototyping, and wear parts trial management. Additionally, they offer support for small businesses in securing SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) funding by helping develop technical narratives and aligning proposals with agency objectives.

The firm assists clients in making data-backed decisions. For instance, in the cotton industry, they deployed 3D scanning solutions to optimize the replacement of spindle components, thereby improving yield outcomes. Realize Ascent Labs also collaborates with university researchers to transition academic innovations into viable commercial products by evaluating use cases, refining delivery models, and creating scalable strategies to attract industry partners and funding.

Upcoming services include non-destructive, high-throughput nutrient analysis for pulse crops, designed to provide results in minutes rather than weeks, and materials identification using spectrometry. These services aim to enhance quality control, speed up plant breeding cycles, and improve overall process efficiency in the agriculture and food supply chains.
