// SKALDWORKS

Overbuilt
By Design.

Edge AI, embedded hardware, and field-deployed systems. Built where consumer-grade quits.

What We Build

Across the stack — from silicon to system.

01 / Computer Vision & Edge AI

Computer Vision & Edge AI

Custom CV model training (RF-DETR, YOLO families). Edge inference pipelines onNVIDIA Jetson and Luxonis OAK platforms. Motion-gated detection workflows engineered for outdoor and long-range deployments.

02 / Embedded Systems & Firmware

Embedded Systems & Firmware

STM32 firmware (including N6 silicon). Motor control for brushless DC and PMSM, on our own field-oriented control stack. Custom PCB design from carrier boards to full motor controllers.

03 / Robotics & Integration

Robotics & Integration

Closed-loop systems with cutting-edge sensor fusion — pan/tilt/zoom rigs, vision-guided motor control, and custom CNC tooling for prototype builds.

04 / Field-Grade Engineering

Field-Grade Engineering

Cross-cutting engineering for harsh deployment — IP-rated enclosures, thermal management, vibration tolerance, off-grid power architecture.Most products currently in stealth.

Where It Works

// 01

Field Operations

Outdoor work, surveying, and infrastructure environments where consumer-grade hardware fails to operate reliably.

// 02

Agriculture & Working Lands

Custom systems for farms, ranches, livestock, and irrigation infrastructure — purpose-built for working operations.

// 03

Distributed Edge Intelligence

Edge AI and sensor networks deployed wherever data needs to live, beyond the reach of consumer connectivity or compute.

From The Bench

Build notes from the lab. Some finished, some held until launch.

SM-1522-R1In development

GÆFA

The old Norse didn't think of luck as chance. Gæfa was something a person carried, earned and kept and handed down the way a good blade is, and you could feel whether someone had it. Every SKALDWORKS build that moves will carry this one.

Something with a heart.

SKW-RD-003Drawn · parts in hand

ROUND — CNC Bed Mill

A compact epoxy-granite bed mill, so the plates, brackets and motor mounts for every other build get cut on our bench instead of bought.

STÁLHRÍÐ

SKALD Motion

A precision pan/tilt platform built from quasi-direct-drive actuators, flat plate, and a CAN-FD bus. Step A toward a ground vehicle and a drone flock that work as one system.

SKW-RD-001Working prototype

STM Configurator

SKALD Studio

A self-hosted tool that turns "I want these peripherals" into a compiled STM32 image, and catches pin conflicts the moment they happen instead of on the bench.

HRAFNAR

Odin kept two ravens, Huginn and Muninn, thought and memory. Every dawn they flew out over the whole world, and every night they came home and told him everything they'd seen. I wanted a flock that leaves, looks, and reports back. HRAFNAR is that flock, built small.

SKALD Flight · HRAFN

A small flock that flies together.

SKUGGSJÁ

Seven hundred years ago a Norse father wrote Konungs skuggsjá, the King's Mirror, for his son. It was a book meant to show the world exactly as it is, the sea and the ice and the far lands, with nothing flattered. A mirror that tells the truth. This one tells it in depth, at the speed of light.

SKALD Sense · Ranging

A new way for our machines to see the room in three dimensions.

SKW-RD-012In development

HILDIGRÍSS

Freyja rode to war on a boar named Hildisvíni, battle-swine, and Freyr's boar Gullinbursti lit the dark with golden bristles. In the old stories boars were never pets. They were war-mounts. Our ground vehicles are GÖLTR, the boar. The first one isn't full grown yet, so it's HILDIGRÍSS, the battle-piglet. Hildisvíni's name is waiting for the day it is.

SKALD Ground · GÖLTR

The first GÖLTR. Built to carry more than itself.

Who We Are

SKALDWORKS is run by two brothers — Logan and Landon Huntsman. Both David Eccles MBAs. Both self-taught engineers. Different defaults, same finish.

Logan Huntsman

Decade-plus in go-to-market and revenue leadership. Built a reputation on standing up what others couldn't — four revenue divisions from zero at Savvos. On one of those projects, got a glimpse of what was possible at the edge of AI and silicon and never came back up for air. Now leads the firmware, hardware, and computer vision side of SKALDWORKS: trains custom CV models on NVIDIA Jetson, writes embedded firmware across major MCU families, and designs custom PCBs. No off switch.

LinkedIn

Landon Huntsman

Director of Data at RYZE; previously Director of Data Science at Black Rifle Coffee. Anchors the data and ML side of SKALDWORKS. Neural networks, gradient boosted trees, Bayesian models, databases that don't fall over. Solves it on paper before either of them touches a tool.

The shared standard: don't ship anything that needs to be coddled.Field-grade or it doesn't leave the bench.

Built For The Field

The Old Norse understood it before most of the world did: nothing lasts forever — not people, not cattle, not kingdoms. Only the work survives. The name earned. The story passed. The legacy carried forward across generations. The skald was the keeper of that memory.

SKALDWORKS is that philosophy rendered in steel and silicon. Build it well. Build it rugged. Let the work carry through.

Build it right means engineering past the failure point — not around it. Ship only what holds.
Test in the conditions you'll deploy in. What runs on the bench isn't what runs in the rain at 600 yards.
