Our Design Process

When you trust us to design a product for you, we follow our proven development process that we've refined over the years to ensure we've properly understood your needs and will deliver you a working system.

We explore and evaluate your initial concept, compile your specifications, define your system architecture, and design, implement and verify your electronics hardware and software.

We make sure everything's ready for manufacture, and are here to support you through the early production stages - and beyond.

Explore

We explore your product, the target cost and volume. We look at the problems and needs your product is aimed at fulfilling.

Using our experience we investigate the feasibility of creating your product within the target time-scales and cost.

Evaluate

After exploring the feasibility of creating your product, we focus on the areas of technical risk.

Performing some initial bench testing of suitable technologies helps us to understand and mitigate these risks.

Specify

Compiling the information captured during the Explore and Evaluate phases we create a specification highlighting the key features and performance required.

This becomes the agreed input specification for the prototype design and details the bounds of the project moving forward.

Engineer

With our agreed specification, we begin to create the first prototype.

Creating schematics, laying out the PCB and commissioning the build of a small number for initial development. Designing and implementing the core functionality of the embedded firmware.

Evolve

The engineering prototype design is improved and built upon to create a refined prototype.

Schematics and PCB layout are updated and embedded firmware features are added.

Support

Moving into pre-production, we support you with manufacturing documentation and regulatory testing and approvals.

We can design and build test rigs and procedures to reduce build costs, and ensure your clients are satisfied with your quality product.
