We have built more than 300 proof-of-concept units so far.
Who it is for
- Plant teams who want to know whether a measurement is even possible before they budget for 40 machines.
- Product managers who need to put a working unit on the table in a management review.
What we have built them for
Machine monitoring (vibration, temperature, energy), connecting older instruments and controllers that only have a serial port, access control, retail footfall, appliances and battery-powered wearables. Mostly the sensor and the radio change between them.
How we keep it short
Most proofs of concept reuse parts we have already brought up on earlier work: microcontrollers from Espressif, ST, TI, Nordic and Nuvoton, radios from BLE and Wi-Fi to LoRa, sub-GHz 6LoWPAN and LTE Cat-1, and wired links such as Modbus RTU over RS485 and CAN. So the time goes into your sensor and your data. Where an FFT or a simple threshold can run on the chip, we do it there and send results, not raw samples. See the full list of technologies.
What it is not
The board may be a development kit on a carrier board, and the enclosure may be 3D printed. Over-the-air updates and security hardening are usually left out. The report lists what must change before production (our checklist).
If we think your timeline is unrealistic, we say so at the start and propose phases. Power harvesting and very small enclosures are the usual reasons.
What you get
- Working units, the number agreed in the scope.
- The firmware and the dashboard, handed over as agreed in the contract.
- A short report: what we measured, what worked, what did not, and what the production version needs.
- A demo with your team, on site or online.
What we need from you
The problem in a paragraph. Access to the machine or the site. One person who can look at the result and say "yes, that is good enough" or "no, we need it within 2 percent".
Book a discovery call and tell us what you want to measure, and on which machine. We share our project history after the call.
