EQ Pilot Program

Overview

Energy Quotient™ is providing early access to a select group of partners through our Pilot Program. This initiative is designed for organizations who want to be part of shaping the next generation of power quality and energy intelligence — and who are ready to deploy our system in real-world conditions.

EQ Lab Gateway

Continuous waveform monitoring for research labs, classrooms, and testbeds

The EQ Lab Gateway brings the same continuous waveform monitoring platform we deploy in industrial environments into a compact, lab-friendly form factor. Built on a Raspberry Pi 5 with a 1 TB NVMe SSD, it runs EQ Sight for real-time waveform visualization and includes JupyterLab for hands-on data analysis. AI-powered diagnostics through EQ Syntropy are available as a remote service when deeper analysis is needed.

It is designed for universities, research groups, and training programs that need real waveform data, not simulated cases.

What is included

EQ Gateway hardware

Raspberry Pi 5 with 16 GB RAM and 1 TB NVMe SSD
EQ Sight for real-time waveform visualization and event timelines
JupyterLab environment for data exploration and custom analysis
Boots directly into EQ Sight with full local access to waveform data
Media converter for fiber-to-copper connection to EQ Wave sensors

EQ Wave sensor

EQ Wave v1.2 sensor node with 32 kHz continuous point-on-wave sampling (32 ksps per channel)
7-channel monitoring (3-phase voltage + 4 current) at 24-bit resolution
Fiber optic isolation via 100Base-FX plastic optical fiber
Media converter included for fiber-to-copper connection to the gateway

Software and analytics

EQ Sight — Real-time dashboards, waveform viewing, harmonic analysis, and event timelines, served locally from the gateway
JupyterLab — Python notebooks with direct access to Parquet data files for custom analysis, teaching materials, and research workflows
equser Python SDK — The same open-source library published on PyPI runs on-device. Use it as-is, extend it, or integrate it into custom workflows
EQ Syntropy (remote) — AI-powered diagnostics, anomaly classification, and root cause analysis available as a remote service, connecting to an EQ-hosted server when needed
Secure remote support — VPN-based access for setup assistance and software updates

Data access modes

The Lab Gateway supports the same data access paths available on all EQ gateways:

Raw Parquet files — Direct access to full-fidelity waveform data for offline analysis and reproducible research
Gateway Data Lake API — Structured access to waveform and derived data via local edge API
Live streaming metrics — 10/12-cycle derived metrics at 5 Hz for dashboarding and near-real-time monitoring
On-demand waveform snapshot — Live waveform pull from gateway with deterministic access to raw signal segments
AI server hooks — Integration with EQ-hosted AI inference services (when EQ Syntropy remote is enabled)

Architecture

The developer-facing layer is Python. The core signal pipeline — continuous waveform acquisition, framing, buffering, storage orchestration, and deterministic handoff — is implemented in Rust for deterministic performance, memory safety, and data integrity.

Who this is for

Grid modernization and power systems labs — Continuous waveform data for inverter-dominated grid research, DER interaction studies, and microgrid testbeds
Power electronics and converter testbeds — High-resolution capture of switching transients, harmonic injection, and control interactions
Workforce development and training programs — Hands-on power quality analysis using real waveform data and industry-standard tools
Senior design and graduate courses — Accessible platform for student projects with Python notebooks and open data formats

Pricing

EQ Lab Gateway (Education and Research)

Price: USD $2,000 per complete node (EQ Wave v1.2 sensor + EQ Lab Gateway + media converter)
Introductory pricing for education, research, and evaluation use. Not intended for production monitoring.
Includes: EQ Wave v1.2 sensor, preconfigured Raspberry Pi 5 gateway with EQ Sight, JupyterLab, media converter, POF cable, and setup support
Additional sensors: Extra EQ Wave v1.2 nodes can be added for multi-point monitoring

The EQ Wave v1.2 is our current-generation sensor designed for lab and research environments. When the UL/FCC-certified EQ Wave v2 becomes available for production and industrial use, lab customers will receive preferred upgrade pricing.

Participating labs also receive preferred pricing on production EQ Gateway hardware, with credit toward pilot or production deployments.

How it is used

Monitor lab feeders, test bays, or microgrid benches with continuous point-on-wave data
Visualize live waveforms, harmonics, and power quality events through EQ Sight
Run custom analyses in JupyterLab using Python, NumPy, and direct Parquet access
Build course materials and reproducible research workflows on the same platform used in industrial deployments
Connect to EQ Syntropy for AI-assisted event classification and diagnostics when deeper analysis is needed

Getting started

We are deploying this configuration with Colorado State University's Grid Modernization Institute, paired with EQ Wave sensors on site.

Our pilot offering includes early access to the EQ Wave™ hardware and the EQ Syntropy™ software platform, with deployment support and ongoing updates throughout the program. Participants will get full system functionality, including high-fidelity waveform capture, real-time analytics, and the latest advances in edge-deployable AI. This is not a limited demo — it's the same core architecture that will serve certified production units in the near future.

Pilot deployments include:

Ruggedized EQ Wave hardware, with support for advanced firmware and protocol upgrades
A pre-configured EQ Syntropy gateway (or integration into your platform)
Real-time waveform viewing and event logging via EQ Sight™
Signal-grounded AI features, including anomaly detection and root cause workflows
Dedicated support from our technical team

If you're interested in joining the EQ Pilot Program, please contact us directly to start the conversation. We’re excited to build with you.

As a pilot customer, you’ll also gain early influence on our product roadmap and the opportunity to shape future integrations, protocols, and platform features based on your needs. We value our early adopters not just as testers, but as core partners in delivering a smarter, more resilient energy future.
