AvenCore AI Engine

Custom Compute Module

Purpose-built AI processing module delivering real-time local inference. Runs advanced language models entirely offline with up to 16GB unified memory.

Optimized for edge AI workloads. Handles speech recognition, language models, and text-to-speech simultaneously.

Solid-State Cooler

Zero Moving Parts

No fans, no bearings, no noise. Pulsating membranes create directed airflow through micro-channels in the copper heat spreader.

Maintains peak AI performance in a sub-8mm profile. Silent operation under any workload.

NVMe Storage

512GB | High-Speed

Local-first means storage-first. 512GB NVMe SSD for model weights, user data, conversation history, and tool caches.

Encrypted at rest via hardware AES-256. Room for multiple AI models and years of conversation history.

Main Board Assembly

High-Density Interconnect

Custom-designed PCB carrying the AI engine, memory, power management, and all I/O routing in a pocket-size form factor.

Impedance-controlled traces for high-speed memory and storage signals.

Aluminum Skeleton

6061-T6 | CNC Machined

Structural midframe machined from a single aluminum billet. Acts as the primary thermal path from AI engine to cooler.

Antenna cutouts for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Hard-anodized finish.

Elastomer Shells

TPE | RF-Transparent

Front and rear casings in matte black thermoplastic elastomer. Soft-touch grip, scratch-resistant, RF-transparent for wireless signals.

Overmolded onto aluminum frame for seamless assembly.

Battery Cell

18Wh | High-Density

Hours of continuous local AI inference. USB-C Power Delivery fast charge to 80% in under 30 minutes.

Multi-layer protection circuit: over-temp, over-current, and over-voltage safeguards.

MEMS Microphones

Dual Array

Two precision MEMS microphones for voice capture. Beamforming and noise cancellation processed locally.

Push-to-talk activation only. No always-on listening. Hardware kill switch disconnects power.

Quantum-Safe Security

NIST PQC Standards

Post-quantum cryptography protects all device communications against both current and future quantum computer threats.

ML-KEM + ML-DSA implementation. First consumer AI device with quantum-safe encryption.
