LEDUC TECH

System-Level Peripheral Location Technology
Designed for OEM & platform licensing

Leduc Tech is developing licensable, system-level technology that enables host devices (TVs, consoles, and smart platforms) to locate paired peripherals directly—without smartphone applications, external tracking tags, or cloud services.

Broad patent coverage pending. Demonstrations and technical materials are available under NDA.

Local device-to-device
No app required
Closed-loop confirmation
Multi-target capable
Designed for ecosystem safety

What it is

A host-driven method to help a device locate its paired peripherals (remote controls, controllers, accessories) using system-level capabilities—designed to be fast, direct, and user-friendly.

Why it matters

Today’s “find” solutions often depend on apps, add-on tags, or external ecosystems. Leduc Tech aims to make locating peripherals a native host feature that respects privacy and works offline.

How it works (high level)

  • Host initiates a locate request
  • Peripheral responds through a paired pathway
  • Host presents a user-visible locate outcome
Detailed architecture, interface behavior, and integration materials are shared under NDA.

LT-1 — Host-Initiated Peripheral Location

LT-1 defines a host-initiated, system-level architecture that enables a device to locate its associated peripherals within a local device ecosystem.

The host platform initiates and manages locate sessions, including session state, timeouts, cancellation, and completion, while peripherals operate as controlled responders that emit user-perceivable indicators and return confirmation signals.

The architecture is transport-agnostic and confined to local communication paths, allowing platform owners to implement consistent locate behavior across device categories without reliance on cloud services, companion applications, or third-party tracking hardware.

LT-1 is designed as a licensable platform capability for OEM and system integration. Detailed architecture and validation materials are shared under NDA.

Use cases

  • Locating a misplaced remote or controller within a room
  • Recovering multiple paired peripherals within the same environment
  • Shared-device environments with recurring locate workflows
  • Accessibility-oriented and simplified “find” interactions

Built for platforms

Designed with host OEM/OS integration in mind (TVs, consoles, smart hubs).

Privacy-first

Intended to operate without cloud dependency for the locate function.

Scalable

Approach supports multi-target workflows and confirmation loops.

What licensees get

Licensing is simplest when adoption risk is already removed. Leduc Tech is building a package that supports evaluation and integration without exposing unnecessary implementation details.

  • Reference architecture (system boundaries, data flows, timing assumptions)
  • Interface & state behavior (normal paths, timeouts, retries, recovery)
  • Failure containment model (feature failure never destabilizes the host ecosystem)
  • Integration checklist (what must change vs what remains untouched)
  • Validation evidence (test notes for power cycles, edge cases, long-run stability)
Goal: make this a low-friction, low-risk feature for OEM/platform adoption.

Who it’s for

  • TV and set-top box OEMs
  • Console / gaming platforms
  • Smart hub and streaming ecosystems
  • Peripheral makers seeking native host support

Why licensing (not a gadget)

The core invention is an architectural capability intended to integrate into existing ecosystems. A hardware reference implementation exists to validate behavior, reliability, and failure modes under real conditions.

Licensing process

  • 1) Evaluation brief
    High-level overview, target integration points, and constraints.
  • 2) NDA + technical package
    Architecture, interface behavior, and validation materials.
  • 3) Pilot integration
    Short, bounded proof in your ecosystem (integration safety + UX flow).
  • 4) Commercial terms
    Field-of-use, scope, support, and royalty / fee structure.

FAQ

  • Do you require cloud connectivity? No—designed for local device-to-device operation for the locate function.
  • Is this a standalone product? The invention is an ecosystem feature; a reference implementation supports validation and integration.
  • What about certification? Battery transport/safety and product certification considerations are addressed in the integration planning package.
  • How do you protect IP while evaluating? High-level briefs first, then technical materials and demos under NDA.
  • What integration effort should we expect? Kept intentionally bounded; integration steps and “no-change” areas are provided under NDA.

Partnerships
