Research First.
Company Later.
The VENDOR project originated in 2010–2011 as an independent engineering research group — with no registered legal entity, no external investors, and no institutional funding. The commercial company was incorporated in 2024 as a consequence of an already developed technology — not as its starting point.
The VENDOR project represents a continuous engineering development trajectory — from early physical principle verification to working laboratory systems at TRL 5–6, with multi-kilowatt prototypes.
This is not an academic spin-off. Not a concept-stage startup. It is 14 years of sequential engineering development, fully funded by the founders, protected by an international patent portfolio, and validated through extended experimental cycles.
The engineering team holds academic backgrounds in theoretical physics and applied mathematics — which defined the methodological rigour of the approach to nonlinear regimes from the first day of research.
Independent Research.
No External Obligations.
In 2010–2011, an informal engineering research group formed, focused on the study of nonlinear electrodynamic systems and regime-based energy architectures.
Work was conducted entirely using founder capital — without grants, university programmes, external investors, or obligations to third parties.
The team's academic background in theoretical physics and applied mathematics established the methodological rigour of the research from the outset.
This structure preserved full control over
- Architectural decisions and system evolution
- Intellectual property rights
- Methodology and pacing of extended experimental cycles
Early work focused on
- Physical principle verification
- Subsystem behaviour in nonlinear regimes
- Extended experimental cycles
From Experiment
to a Validated System
The sequence was deliberate: system stability → IP protection → external capital
2011–2015
Early Research · Pre-TRL
Concept verification. Initial discharge architectures. Scale: micro-level. Objective: prove the principle — not build a product.
2016–2020
First Working Prototypes · TRL 2–4
First working systems at low and mid power levels. Resonant drivers. High-voltage subsystems. Initial regime stability logs.
2021–2024
Advanced Prototypes & IP · TRL 4–5
Laboratory prototypes up to 5 kW. Subsystem stability testing. Extended operational cycles.
These technologies did not define the system concept, but enabled finer control of nonlinear regimes and accelerated the implementation and validation cycles.

Company Incorporation · Outcome, Not Origin
MICRO DIGITAL ELECTRONICS CORP S.R.L. incorporated (Romania, EU).
The company was established to industrialise, certify, and scale an already developed technology within the EU regulatory framework.
2025
EU Transition · TRL 5–6 Stage Reached
Relocation to Romania. Laboratory restructuring. Certification preparation. Transition toward subsequent TRL stages.
Over €1.5 Million.
Founder Capital Only.
14+ Years of Independent Development.
From 2011 to 2025, VENDOR development was conducted exclusively using founder capital — without external investment, institutional funding, or academic dependencies.
This preserved full control over:
- Architectural decisions and system evolution
- Intellectual property rights
- Methodology and pacing of extended experimental cycles
Capital allocated to
- Early R&D and regime and subsystem experiments
-
Multiple generations of working prototypes, demonstrating progressive scaling of the electrodynamic regime and system stability under increasing load conditions.3 W → 100 W → 0.5 kW → 1 kW → 2.4 kW → 5 kW
- Development of a laboratory-grade testing environment for extended regime validation
- Extended experimental and regime testing cycles
- IP formalisation and legal structuring
- EU transition for certification and scale-up
- Working TRL 5–6 laboratory prototypes for VENDOR.Max

What Stands Behind
the €1.5 Million Figure
The following reflects the structure of documented expenditures that constitute the project's verifiable financial footprint.
- Patent prosecution across 5 jurisdictions (EP, CN, IN, US, ES) + PCT · EU trademark registration
- Professional-grade measurement instrumentation
- Laboratory infrastructure, test benches, and prototypes
- Legal, organisational, and operational costs over the development period
Figures represent conservative lower-bound estimates based on documented expenditure categories. Total founder investment: €1,500,000. Documented in the Data Room.
Professional-Grade

High-Bandwidth Oscillographic Systems & Transient Waveform Analysis
Impulse, switching, and nonlinear regime observation
Programmable Power Supplies & Dynamic Electronic Loads
Controlled load profiling and regime stability testing
Precision Electrical Measurement Instrumentation
Multimeters, frequency counters, signal generators
RF & Field Measurement Instrumentation
Electromagnetic environment and field interaction monitoring
Control & Synchronisation Environment
Multi-channel timing, signal coordination, and visualisation systems
Thermal & Energy Dissipation Monitoring Systems
Heat flow observation, loss channel analysis, and regime stability verification
Where the Project
Stands Today
At the conclusion of this development phase, the project reached laboratory validation at TRL 5–6:
- Multi-kilowatt system prototypes
- Over 1,000 cumulative operational hours (internal)
- Extended continuous operation cycles
- Patent-protected architecture WO2024209235 · ES2950176
In 2025, the full technical documentation set was consolidated and aligned with international engineering and certification requirements, establishing a structured baseline for pilot deployment and subsequent industrialisation.
This stage reflects not market readiness, but system maturity — a transition from laboratory validation toward controlled real-world evaluation.
In 2026, a 24 kW system configuration (VENDOR.Drive) was engineered and is being prepared for assembly as part of the next validation and scaling phase.
Clarifications on Current Stage
- The system is at TRL 5–6 and remains within laboratory validation. No commercial deployment has taken place.
- Pilot deployment is a controlled next step, intended to validate system behaviour under real-world conditions.
- Documentation alignment and system structuring do not imply production readiness, but reflect engineering maturity and readiness for the next validation phase.
