PCe System
Personal Cognitive Environment
PCe is the hardware and operating environment designed specifically for local-first cognition. It’s where your machine stops being “a PC” and becomes a dedicated cognitive instrument for you and your AI.
What is the PCe System?
The PCe System (Personal Cognitive Environment) is the physical and logical home for your Umbra-Noesis stack. It defines how storage, GPUs, memory, and the OS are arranged to prioritize:
- Low-latency local AI inference as a first-class workload.
- Resilient storage layouts for long-term cognitive archives.
- Predictable performance across multi-node deployments.
Roles inside the ecosystem
PCe is where the Umbra-Noesis concepts become metal: Genesis, MobileCore, PCe_FE, future racks and nodes. Each PCe profile is a documented, repeatable build that can be deployed, shipped, or licensed.
Founders / Lab
High-end nodes for development, deep testing, and long-horizon experiments.
Field / Mobile
MobileCore-style builds for working from tugs, trucks, or remote cabins.
Client / PCe Kits
Future turnkey systems or blueprints derived from the same architecture.
