TRU Group Inc focus is on leading-edge high-tech high-impact advancing technology-intensive and critical industries. In some cases "technology intensity" is found in a "niche segment" of a mature industry so at TRU Group maintain quite a broad capability. With a core of highly qualified and experienced people and the flexibility to engage the world's best most distinguished experts on a project basis when required we have taken-on the the most challenging assignments. Indeed we thrive on resolving issues where others cannot!

The TRU Frontier Industries [some listed on right] tend to be in early stage of development or are going through a disruptive period due to breakthrough novel technological advances, market or other influence causing rapid change in these interrelated industries. A clear example is our mid-2017 assignment in which we are assisting a large US road infrastructure producer to find and implement manufacturing products to enhance the efficiencies of autonomous vehicle onboard sensors such using laser, radar, ultrasound, GPS and other advanced optical technology. In our Frontier Industries TRU Group strives for global leadership in its scope of practice including -

    • Globally recognized expert individual team members
    • Most advanced technically in both the engineering and fundamental science
    • Most extended in industry capability from concept through production to detailed application
    • Strongest sector-wide diverse capability at primary, secondary and all downstream levels
    • Most business savvy in technology, managing, operating, finance, marketing and strategy at all levels
    US manufacturing in 2015 now ranked an abysmal 9th position globally on "production process sophistication". Going forward 2025-2030, TRU Group projects tough times for manufacturing and the need for the aggressive implementation on advanced manufacturing could not be more urgent. The reality is that US manufacturing faces huge challenges with or without the stress inherent in the radical changes in the trade policies envisaged by the Trump Administration. America ranks highly in economic competitiveness and the capacity for innovation but falls short on manufacturing sophistication compared to its competitors.

We are also high profile in several other advancing industries or novel technologies such as photonic device / fiber optics [out of Tucson Optics Valley] photovoltaic solar cell experts (both for the materials and fabrication of them). Nealy all our work is custom and TRU Group takes on the role of "technology supplier".

Examples of a TRU Group Frontier Industries Assignment:

Manufacturing Opportunities in Autonomous Vehicle - Driverless Car - Sensor Technology & Artificial Intelligence – Enhancing Targets in Road Infrastructure to Aid Sensing Target Efficiencies

TRU Group Inc, June, 2017 - For a manufacturer in the road infrastructure industry in 2017 TRU Group examined manufacturing enhancements to driverless vehicle sensing of road infrastructurimprove the efficiency of onboard sensors in self-driving and autonomous vehicles. The technologies included laser, radar, ultrasound, camera, LIDAR, GPS and mapping sensors. Each have their own software and algorithms. TRU assessed developments in leading edge sensor engineering science and their integration / adoption in autonomous and driver-assisted vehicles. The work included examining potential spin-off from military, armament and aerospace industries. TRU Group identified manufacturing enhancements and is suggesting practical ways to implement them in order to maximize the opportunities in the autonomous vehicle sensor and infrastructure space, as driverless vehicles innovations boost technical capability from the SAE level 2/3 today in 2017 up to level 5 full autonomy in the future.

TRU Group Additive Manufacturing 3D Printing for in-line Manufacturing

TRU Group 2020 evaluated developed AM 3D Printing equipment for use on the production line for a global plastic component manufacturer. Assessed applicability and readiness of the equipment for adoption in the multiple facilities. Analysed issues such as manufacturing speed, per unit cost, piece repeatability, tensile strength, surface and colour. TRU Group in 2019-2020 assessed the competitive landscape in the Additive Manufacturing AM 3D Printing space ranking five of the top US equipment providers. Reviewed the innovative AM technology potential use in and provided recommendations. TRU Group also has 3D Printing capability in AM metals..
