How We Work
We work with product companies, design firms, and manufacturers at every stage of the product lifecycle.
Get in Touch
Discovery & Initial Engagement
You’ve never used our exact stretchable electronics before, and chances are we’ve never been involved with exactly what you are innovating. We like to start with an in-depth conversation about your project.
We understand that sometimes this conversation must wait until a confidentiality agreement or NDA is in place. We’re cool with that, and our legal team is fast about getting our mutual NDA to you or looking at your version if that’s your preference.
Evaluation Kits
We offer kits designed to help you evaluate our strain sensing technology and to test the durability of our stretchable TPU interconnects. Each kit contains detailed information about the exact pieces in the kit.
Design
Depending on your needs, we may be able to design a custom part in 1-2 days. This is especially true of simple parts like interconnects and strain sensors for which we have a reference design or that fit easily within our DFM.
For more complex needs such as integrated sensor array or an entire soft goods device, our engineering team collaborates with you to design custom solutions that integrate seamlessly into your products. We ensure all designs are optimized for manufacturability, reducing time and costs in production.
Prototyping
We rapidly develop prototypes to bring your vision to life. Our agile methodology allows for quick iterations and refinements based on your feedback, ensuring the final product meets your exact specifications.
Component Selection & Integration
We can assist in selecting the best components from our curated catalog to match your application. Our technology integrates with conventional and innovative sensors and electronics, providing many options for your needs.
Testing
All prototypes undergo rigorous testing in our R&D lab and, when necessary, in partnership with world-class testing facilities. We ensure reliability, durability, and performance through comprehensive validation processes.
Production & Scaling
Small Production Runs
Once the prototype is validated, we move to small production runs to finalize the product. Our in-house manufacturing capabilities ensure high-quality output and quick turnaround times.Scaling for Mass Production
For large-scale production, we leverage our global manufacturing partners across the US, Europe, and Southeast Asia. This allows us to scale efficiently and cost-effectively while maintaining quality standards.Support
Our commitment to your success extends beyond product delivery. We provide continued support and updates, ensuring your products remain at the cutting edge of wearable technology.
