Balthazar is part of the PhotonicsNL network and has been crossing paths with the Dutch photonics community.

Balthazar automates experiment tracking and streamlines knowledge management for R&D labs, enabling AI-powered hardware development. Balthazar is a cloud R&D platform that helps groundbreaking technologies grow faster and better. R&D engineers can design and execute experiments and use scripting for simulations, measurement automation and data analysis. Balthazar automatically tracks metadata during the entire R&D cycle: design, fabrication, testing and analysis and makes it centrally accessible through the browser. Engineers can combine experiment execution, analytics and AI models to get real-time insights and create reusable and scalable R&D workflows. The infrastructure gives R&D teams a single platform where they can collaborate, make data-driven decisions and use the power of AI to navigate the vast parameter landscape when developing the technologies of the future.
