Investor Insight
With its flagship platform, virtualplant, already in commercial use across high-value industrial assets, and a growing global footprint through strategic partnerships, RemSense offers investors a unique opportunity to back a scalable, revenue-generating business at the forefront of digital transformation in the resource and infrastructure sectors.
Overview
RemSense Technologies Limited (ASX:REM) is an Australian technology company enabling digital transformation across resource-heavy industries through advanced asset visualisation and drone services. Originally established in 2006 as a developer of drone systems for the defence and industrial sectors, the company expanded into professional drone services in 2012.
In 2019, RemSense made a strategic expansion into high-resolution 3D asset capture and visualisation, culminating in the development of its flagship product, virtualplant. This strategic shift aligns with macro trends in digital transformation, particularly in asset-heavy industries like energy, resources, infrastructure and utilities. The company was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2021.
RemSense is ideally positioned to leverage the growing adoption of digital twin technologies, particularly across mining, oil & gas, manufacturing, utilities, defence, marine and aerospace industries. These sectors are increasingly embracing digital tools to improve safety, reduce costs, and manage assets more efficiently, creating strong and expanding demand for RemSense’s solutions.
In the first half of FY25, RemSense reported $3.12 million in revenue, representing a 178 percent increase over the same period in FY24. The company also recorded its first-ever net profit of $796,892 and achieved positive operational cashflow of $365,539 – a turning point that demonstrates both commercial traction and disciplined financial execution.
Strategic partnerships with Chevron, Newmont Mining and Woodside Energy highlight RemSense’s growing reputation among Tier-1 clients and its ability to scale internationally. These engagements are not pilot programs, but are real, revenue-generating contracts that reinforce RemSense’s value proposition.

Key Products and Services
Virtual Plant
Virtualplant is RemSense’s flagship digital platform. It’s a high-resolution 3D asset visualisation solution that allows users to explore and interact with industrial facilities remotely, as if on site. By combining drone-based photogrammetry, terrestrial LiDAR, and 360-degree imaging, virtualplant creates immersive, detailed, interactive models of infrastructure such as gas plants, processing facilities and offshore vessels.
The platform supports a wide range of critical functions including remote inspection, maintenance planning, training, safety management, and compliance documentation. It reduces the need for site travel, improves asset visibility, and helps clients identify and address risks before they become costly failures.
Virtualplant is already deployed in high-value applications. In October 2023, Woodside Energy engaged RemSense to create a visual twin of one of its floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels. In 2024, Chevron signed a series of global services agreement with RemSense to use the platform for photogrammetry scanning at gas plants in South Asia, Northwest Australia and USA, with a total contract value of more than AU$800,000. These projects reflect the platform’s global relevance and enterprise-grade capabilities.
Additional features enhance the platform’s utility:
- vTag uses AI to automatically identify and tag equipment based on nameplate data, linking it to asset registers in systems like SAP and IBM Maximo.
- vDetect automatically identifies physical defects such as corrosion, helping prioritise maintenance.
- vConnect enables real-time integration with external monitoring and data platforms, creating a unified interface for visual and operational intelligence.
These capabilities make virtualplant more than a visualisation tool, as it becomes a central intelligence layer in clients’ asset ecosystems.
RPAS (Drone) Services
RemSense has a strong legacy in drone operations, with CASA-certified pilots and a fleet of custom-engineered drones equipped with high-end imaging and sensing tools. These drone services support asset inspections, geophysical and vegetation surveys, water sampling, environmental monitoring, traffic studies, and building condition assessments.
Drone data is often the first step in creating virtualplant models. This seamless integration of field data acquisition and platform-based analysis ensures RemSense delivers a complete, end-to-end digital solution for industrial clients.

Tech 5: NVIDIA Results Rattle Investors, Trump Signals More Tech Deals to Come
“However, the long-term potential of AI can’t be ignored,” he told the Investing News Network, emphasizing his preference for top players like NVIDIA and Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) over smaller, debt-leveraged firms.
Reports that DeepSeek will train its newest AI models on Huawei chips and Cambricon Technologies' (SHA:688256) 4,300 percent revenue surge underscore the shifting AI landscape. Still, optimism wasn’t absent: NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pointed to accelerating global demand and unveiled a US$60 billion buyback program to reassure investors.
“All in all, the sector’s long-term trajectory remains bullish, with AI adoption accelerating across industries,” said Murillo.

However, it wasn’t enough to reassure the public, and NVIDIA's share price fell over 4 percent between Wednesday (August 27) and Friday (August 29). As investors analyzed new inflation data that indicates tariffs are impacting prices, other AI-related stocks saw losses too, pulling the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX) from its recent record highs.
With that, here's a look at some of the other drivers that shaped the tech sector this week.
1. Intel warns of adverse reactions to government equity stake
In a US Securities and Exchange Commission Form 8-K filing dated August 22, Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) warns that the federal government’s 10 percent stake in its business could cause “adverse reactions,” including litigation from investors, employees, customers, suppliers, partners and foreign governments.
The company also discloses a clause in the agreement that would raise the government’s stake to 15 percent if the company fails to meet set manufacturing thresholds.
Moreover, the filing states that, if this agreement prompts other government bodies to seek similar stakes, the varied agendas could diminish the voting power of other shareholders.
The comments come after the White House announced last week that it would take a 10 percent stake in the company in a deal worth around US$8.9 billion. On Monday, (August 25), President Donald Trump suggested he might pursue similar agreements with other American companies, posting on Truth Social:
“I will also help those companies that make such lucrative deals with the United States. I love seeing their stock price go up, making the USA RICHER, AND RICHER.”
Meanwhile, White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett told CNBC that the deal is part of a broader strategy to create a sovereign wealth fund that may include additional companies.
Later, during an interview on CNBC’s Squawk Box on Tuesday, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick said Pentagon officials are considering acquiring equity stakes in leading defense contractors such as Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT).
2. Apple sets date to reveal fall product lineup
On Tuesday, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) invited media members and analysts to its next launch event, which is scheduled for September 9 at 10:00 a.m. PST.
The event, which will be live streamed from the iPhone maker's campus, is expected to be the venue for the introduction of the new iPhone 17 lineup and updated Apple Watch models.
The new iPhone series is rumored to include four models:
- iPhone 17
- iPhone 17 Pro
- iPhone 17 Pro Max
- A new iPhone 17 Air that will reportedly replace the iPhone 16 Plus. This new model is rumored to be exceptionally thin, potentially as slim as 5.5 millimeters, a major new design direction for Apple.
The new iPhones are also expected to feature a new "Liquid Glass"-based interface as part of iOS 26.
According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, who has a reputation for being one of the most accurate and prolific sources of leaks about Apple's future products, the company is planning three years of major iPhone redesigns, starting with the September release. Apple’s first foldable iPhone, code-named V68, is slated to arrive in 2026, according to Gurman. Apple's 2027 "iPhone 20" will feature curved glass edges to complement the upcoming Liquid Glass-based interface for iOS and other operating systems.
3. IBM, AMD to partner on quantum supercomputer
IBM (NYSE:IBM) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) (NASDAQ:AMD) said on Tuesday that they plan to collaborate to develop quantum-centric supercomputing.
The two companies, which have each fundamentally advanced the frontiers of quantum hardware and software, AI accelerators, CPUs and GPUs, said they will work together to “develop scalable, open-source platforms that could redefine the future of computing” by combining their strengths in quantum and high-performance computing.
“Quantum computing will simulate the natural world and represent information in an entirely new way,” said Arvind Krishna, chairman and CEO of IBM, adding that the firms' collaborative efforts will “build a powerful hybrid model that pushes past the limits of traditional computing.”
“We see tremendous opportunities to accelerate discovery and innovation,” said Dr. Lisa Su, chair and CEO of AMD.
In an interview with Axios, Jay Gambetta, IBM's quantum vice president, said he aims to get fault-tolerant quantum computers, a set of techniques and architectural designs that ensure a computation can proceed accurately even in the presence of errors, “by the end of this decade.”
4. Cost of Meta data center to exceed original estimate
During a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, Trump told reporters that Meta Platforms' (NASDAQ:META) Louisiana data center will cost the company around US$50 billion to build.
That's over 70 percent of the company’s projected CAPEX spending in its latest quarterly report.
“When they said US$50 billion for a plant, I said, ‘What the hell kind of plant is that?’” said Trump, revealing a photo of the proposed data center, Hyperion, superimposed over the island of Manhattan.
“When you look at this, you understand why it’s US$50 billion,” he added.
When the data center was announced, officials in Louisiana estimated the project would cost around US$10 billion. Meta has not confirmed this new estimate and declined to comment on Trump's remarks.
5. Fusion developer raises US$863 million for energy development
On Thursday (August 28), Commonwealth Fusion Systems, a leading nuclear fusion developer in the US, announced it has secured US$863 million in an oversubscribed Series B2 funding round.
Investors including Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) and NVIDIA contributed to this capital raise, which will facilitate the completion of Commonwealth's Spac fusion demonstration machine, as well as the commencement of construction on a new ARC power plant in Virginia.
“Investors recognize that CFS is making fusion power a reality. They see that we are executing and delivering on our objectives,” said the company’s CEO and co-founder, Bob Mumgaard. “This funding recognizes CFS’ leadership role in developing a new technology that promises to be a reliable source of clean, almost limitless energy — and will enable investors to have the opportunity to capitalize on the birth of a new global industry.”

NVIDIA Delivers Record Quarter as AI Demand Booms, but China Uncertainty Persists
“Blackwell is the AI platform the world has been waiting for, delivering an exceptional generational leap — production of Blackwell Ultra is ramping at full speed, and demand is extraordinary,” said founder and CEO Jensen Huang.
“The AI race is on, and Blackwell is the platform at its center,” he added.
The company’s data center division once again fueled growth as it generated US$41.1 billion in revenue, 56 percent higher than a year ago. Roughly US$33.8 billion of that total came from sales of NVIDIA's GPUs, while US$7.3 billion was from networking hardware that ties together large AI computing systems.
Sales of NVIDIA's Blackwell processors, launched in May, rose 17 percent quarter-on-quarter. The product line has quickly become the backbone of NVIDIA's data center business, accounting for a majority of the segment's revenue.
Wall Street reacts to NVIDIA results
Despite NVIDIA's strong numbers, company shares initially slipped in after-hours trading as some investors fretted about slower growth momentum in the data center division.
Regardless, the stock later pared its losses by turning positive on Thursday (August 28).
Overall, NVIDIA has surged 35 percent so far this year after nearly tripling in 2024.
NVIDIA performance, August 25 to 28, 2025.

The company is guiding for revenue of US$54 billion, plus or minus 2 percent, in the October quarter.
However, that forecast does not assume any shipments of the H20, a chip that was designed for the Chinese market, but is currently sidelined by export restrictions.
Colette Kress, NVIDIA's CFO, told analysts the company could ship between US$2 billion and US$5 billion worth of H20 processors this quarter if geopolitical conditions allow.
No H20 sales to China
NVIDIA confirmed it had no H20 sales to China in its second quarter.
Instead, it benefited from releasing US$180 million in previously reserved H20 inventory to a customer outside of China, boosting reported revenue by US$650 million. The company previously said that the lack of H20 shipments cost it up to US$8 billion in potential sales in the second quarter alone.
Huang met with US President Donald Trump earlier this summer to lobby for licenses to export the H20, a chip that was developed specifically to comply with US trade restrictions.
Under a tentative deal, NVIDIA agreed to pay 15 percent of China H20 revenue to the US government in exchange for export approvals. However, the arrangement has yet to be codified into a formal agreement.
Blackwell and the China dilemma
Beyond H20, attention has shifted to NVIDIA's newest flagship processor, Blackwell.
On Wednesday’s (August 27) earnings call, Huang said there is “a real possibility” of bringing Blackwell to China.
“We just have to keep advocating the importance of American tech companies to be able to lead and win the AI race, and help make the American tech stack the global standard,” he said. Huang estimates that China represents a US$50 billion opportunity for NVIDIA this year, with growth of 50 percent annually. He argued it is better for Chinese AI firms to use NVIDIA chips, even if modified, rather than being forced to rely on domestic alternatives.
Trump, however, has expressed caution. Speaking at a press conference earlier this month, he said, “The Blackwell is super-duper advanced. I wouldn’t make a deal with that.”
However, he said he could allow a “somewhat enhanced in a negative way” Blackwell chip to be sold to China, further suggesting that such a version could be slowed by 30 to 50 percent to comply with US restrictions.
Even without China sales, NVIDIA maintains a bright outlook.
Huang told analysts the buildout of AI infrastructure is still in its early stages, further projecting that global spending on AI infrastructure could reach US$3 trillion to US$4 trillion by the end of the decade.
Furthermore, large cloud providers, which remain NVIDIA's biggest customers, have announced plans to spend tens of billions of dollars per quarter on AI infrastructure, ensuring a steady pipeline of demand for the company's chips.

Tech 5: US Government Strikes Big Tech Deal, Perplexity Plots Expansion
1. US government strikes controversial Big Tech deal
On Monday (August 11), the Washington Post reported on a deal between the US government and tech giants NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) (NASDAQ:AMD). It stipulates that the tech companies must surrender 15 percent of revenue from Chinese sales of NVIDIA's H20 chips and AMD's MI308 chips.
Anonymous sources told the news outlet that this condition was imposed as a prerequisite for granting the companies export licenses to sell their products in China. The move that has prompted legal concerns among trade experts who say the fee could be construed as an unconstitutional trade tax.
“To call this unusual or unprecedented would be a staggering understatement,” Stephen Olson, a former US trade negotiator, told Bloomberg. “What we are seeing is in effect the monetization of US trade policy in which US companies must pay the US government for permission to export.”

Meanwhile, shares of Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) rose as much as 4.6 percent on Tuesday (August 12) following a "candid and constructive" meeting between CEO Lip-Bu Tan and US President Donald Trump on Monday.
The meeting came after Trump called for Tan's removal last week.
According to a separate Bloomberg article, the US government is considering taking a stake in the chipmaker to help it establish a planned factory hub in Ohio; the company once promised it would be the world’s largest chipmaking facility. Tan has not confirmed or denied the report, but discussions are said to be ongoing. Sources told Bloomberg the government is considering using funds from the Biden administration’s Chips Act to fund the stake.
2. Amazon to expand grocery delivery services
Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) shares rose as much as 1.3 percent on Wednesday (August 13) after the commerce company announced plans to significantly expand its grocery services.
On Wednesday, the company said its same-day delivery service will now include fresh groceries, including produce, meat and dairy, in over 1,000 cities, with plans to expand into more than 2,300 by the end of the year.
The service is included in Amazon Prime memberships for orders over US$25. Smaller orders and orders from non-members will require fees of US$2.99 and US$12.99, respectively.
3. CoreWeave shares drop after mixed earnings report
Artificial intelligence (AI) data center operator CoreWeave (NASDAQ:CRWV) reported mixed Q2 results on Tuesday, with revenue more than doubling year-on-year to US$1.2 billion, beating estimates of US$1.08 billion, and a revenue backlog of US$30.1 billion. However, the growth came at a high cost. The company reported a record US$2.9 billion in capital expenditures for the quarter, and operating expenses jumped by 276 percent to US$1.19 billion.

The company also reported losses of US$291 million, larger than the US$190.6 million analysts had estimated.
Shares of CoreWeave opened more than 10 percent lower on Wednesday and declined throughout the week, closing at US$99.97 on Friday (August 15) compared to Monday’s opening price of US$134.80.
4. Perplexity bids on Chrome, prepares for fresh funding round
AI startup Perplexity made a US$34.5 billion bid for Google's (NASDAQ:GOOGL) web browser, Chrome, in a move to secure its future in the AI search market. Perplexity told the Wall Street Journal that the unsolicited offer would be funded with the help of outside investors. The company's advance comes as Google faces a potential divestiture following an antitrust trial that found it had illegally monopolized online search and search advertising.
OpenAI has also expressed interest in acquiring Chrome.
On Thursday, Business Insider reported that Perplexity is preparing for another round of funding, which would mark its sixth fundraiser in 18 months. The company is reportedly seeking a post-money valuation of US$20 billion. This comes barely one month after the startup achieved a US$18 billion valuation.
The rapid succession of these events underscores the intense, high-stakes competition among AI startups to secure foundational assets and challenge established tech giants.
Canadian AI startup Cohere secured US$500 million in fresh funding on Thursday from a group of investors that included NVIDIA and AMD, bringing its valuation to US$6.8 billion. The company also onboarded former executives from Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META).
5. Apple plans product expansion
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) shares climbed as high as 1.7 percent on Wednesday after Bloomberg reported on the company’s planned expansion into robotics, home security and smart displays.
The new products are aimed at strengthening Apple's product ecosystem, which has paled in comparison to offerings from tech rivals like Amazon and Meta.

Some of the new devices slated for future release include a tabletop virtual companion robot, a long-planned advanced Siri model with a visual personality, a smart speaker with display capabilities and home security cameras.
Apple finished the week at US$231.59, a 1.7 percent gain from Monday.
