Operating Division / Anderson Innovations
Intelligent software. Autonomous systems. Applied engineering.
Anderson Enterprise begins with Anderson Innovations, our technology and engineering division. It exists to build complete systems — electronics, embedded software, networking, data and physical product design — and as our capabilities and resources grow, we intend to expand into additional sectors.

What this division delivers
AEG GRID
A modular smart-power and energy monitoring system: a low-voltage hardware device plus a live web dashboard that measures voltage, current, power consumption, temperature and abnormal electrical activity — measure, transmit, visualize, understand, improve.
Drone First Responder
A high-speed, software-defined first-responder multirotor with high-voltage propulsion, custom avionics enclosures and dispatch-integrated flight scripts for municipal public-safety deployment.
Embedded Platforms
Board-level hardware case studies — like our localized voice-reactive assistant — that carry a design from breadboard to parametric enclosure under a documented tolerance stack-up.
Active R&D — V0.1 Blueprint
AEG GRID — Modular Smart-Power & Energy Monitoring
AEG GRID is Anderson Innovations' first major hardware-and-software engineering project: a modular platform for monitoring energy use and system conditions in labs, workspaces and buildings. A safe, low-voltage prototype measures electrical and environmental data, transmits it over the local network, and turns raw measurements into a live operational dashboard.
Systems Architecture
Sensing Layer
Safe, isolated sensors measure voltage and current on a low-voltage test system, alongside temperature, device status, uptime and battery level — every reading timestamped with a clear unit.
Controller & Connectivity
A low-voltage microcontroller development board samples the sensors and streams measurements over Wi-Fi to a small backend service that stores the time-series data.
GRID Dashboard
A web interface renders live load, daily and weekly energy usage, system temperature, connected devices and threshold alerts — abnormal electrical activity surfaces the moment it occurs.
Physical Product
A prototype enclosure leads into a full CAD-designed housing, with a long-term path to professionally designed electronics, a custom PCB and documented validation.
Commercialization Path
Development Roadmap
Phase-gated from research and safety through proof of concept, connected prototype, dashboard, CAD enclosure, validation and a small controlled pilot deployment.
Product Line
GRID 1 covers basic energy monitoring; GRID 2 adds multi-device monitoring and analytics; GRID 3 scales to building-wide modular sensor nodes; GRID Pro targets commercial and industrial monitoring with reporting, alerts and integrations.
Why It Matters
GRID demonstrates the full stack — electronics, embedded programming, networking, data, web development and physical product design — proving Anderson Innovations builds hardware, not just websites.
Safety Boundary
The first prototype is strictly low-voltage, battery-powered or properly isolated test electronics. No household mains work; any higher-voltage development belongs with qualified professionals and proper equipment.
