What is the Acorient NTC Control Block?
Acorient’s NTC Control Block is a patented pattern based architecture technology, which is a revolutionary new way of controlling physical systems. Using our matrix methodology, we can directly instruct machines to solve problems that are difficult or impossible for conventional, Turing (mathematical) computing machines. The introduction of this new architecture will be a paradigm shift for many industries and will become the new standard for control technology.
Today, control technology is used to control a process, set routines, manage variables, and more. But the limits of today’s controllers require constant adjustments to be made by expert technicians for every change in the process, whether an intentional change or due to cause and effect. These adjustments are costly in both time and resources.
Our new approach is a non-turing technology that uses matrices to learn, adapt, and make changes as needed without tuning. Our architecture will outperform current technologies up to 50% more accurately in self adjusting and continues to improve the process while operating. Our methodology can be implemented for any time-based, multivariable process and cannot be hacked when fully implemented into hardware. Chaotic, self-organizing and discontinuous physical systems can be emulated, and thus future states predicted.
The Acorient NTC function block is a PID replacement, that will run on any Allen Bradley PLC. Once implemented, our function block requires no human input for changes in the process as it self adapts without any need for tuning.

Superior, highly stable control of non-linear, extended time delay, or chaotic systems
As a Non-Turing, Non-Von Neumann Architecture, it has no vulnerability to viruses and/or cyber attack, when fully implemented into hardware
Our Pattern Based Architecture is useful in innumerable areas ranging from image recognition systems to the temperature controls of an oven. Consequently, our technology could be used to vastly improve areas such as the modeling of the self sustaining patterns of a cell to assisting pilots attempting to land on aircraft carriers by predicting wave patterns.
Our Pressure Control Process Simulator
(PID vs NTC)
To showcase our breakthrough in control technology we created a pressure control process simulator, which is a nonlinear system with variable time delay. The fully functioning PID Block (comprised of an Allen Bradley 1756 PLC with RS Logic 5000 software) is used to circulate the water using a small, in-line pump at various time delays vs the Acorient control loop for the same time delays. Using this demo we can prove our technology provides superior, highly stable control of the physical system without the need for human input or tuning as our matrices automatically adjust to variables.
