Carlton Brule Mechanical engineer based in Goffstown, NH.
Nine years in R&D at Panasonic Boston Laboratory, where I invented the Laser Marker Tool. Since then I've founded and co-founded a handful of hardware companies, spanning manufacturing technology, automotive engineering, and agriculture.
Lase-X — manufacturing identity infrastructure company.
Co-founder and CEO. The core product, the LMT, is a spindle-mounted laser that marks unique IDs directly onto parts during CNC machining, so every part carries its own traceable record. Spun out of my Panasonic R&D work in 2024
Rausworks — VAG engine conversion systems for water-cooled Porsche platforms.
Co-founder and CTO. Built out of the technical core of the Renn27 exit. We sell complete documented swap kits and tuning support.
Renn27 (exited) - Porsche 911 engine swap platform.
Co-founded and exited; the technical core carried forward into Rausworks.
GreenScarecrow — agricultural technology venture
Co-founded, backed by several Massachusetts Dept of Agricultural Resources grants over the past decade, with research collaborations at URI, UMass, and USC.
27swap — storefront for openCAN
openCAN is an open-source dual-CAN bus firmware platform built for engine swaps.
