Our Services

An agnostic, end-to-end R&D center for the rapid design, development, and scaling

of novel Internet of Things (IoT) products and solutions.

Iconos_1.png

Co-Creation Lab

We partner with companies that have developed novel inventions in the early stages of Ideation

Iconos_2.png

End-to-End

R&D Center

From initial product definitions, to development of a functional prototype(s), to global commercialization, our team designs and develops functional products ready for commercialization

Iconos_3.png

Rapid Prototyping

The rapid design, development, and scaling of bespoke Internet of Things (IoT) products and solutions are enabled by our teams capabilities and expertise, and pre-built solution reference architecture

Iconos_4.png

Multi-disciplinary

Team

Cross-functional team of electronics, firmware and software engineers, computer scientists,

back-end and front-end developers, UX / UI Designers

Iconos_5_edited.png

Partnership

Approach

We are partners, rather than traditional service providers

icons8-código-100_edited.png

Extension for R&D

& product development

All of our internal capabilities, infrastructure, and team for developing ideas to become scalable IoT products and solutions.

icons8-mantenimiento-100_edited.png

Pre-existing tools,
tech stack, and experience

Reduces risks, less initial investment, increases time to market, increases quality and performance.

We are a full-service solution provider capable of

turning ideation into scalable IoT prototypes

icons8-el-tiempo-de-entrega-100.png

Faster Time To Market

Iconos_8_edited.png

Mix of talent, tools, and pre-built building blocks enable us to develop a scalable prototype based on your invention rapidly.

Lower Development

Costs

Iconos_8_edited.png

Hiring an internal product development team is much more cost effective than developing an internal R&D capability.

icons8-de-acuerdo-100.png

Higher Probability of Success

Iconos_8_edited.png

We consider scaling from the onset, maximizing global commercialization - from initial functional prototype to the production of millions.

Companies without internal R&D capabilities and/or product development teams have limited options when turning their

novelideas into scalable IoT products/solutions...Why?

Iconos_9_edited.png

Founders/Executives

Many have the long-term vision and deep subject matter expertise, but lack IoT product design and development experience and knowledge

Iconos_10_edited.png

Developing inhouse R&D labs / product dev teams

Companies can manage their own product development teams and R&D capabilities internally, but developing Maximizing their efforts requires many different skill sets and expertise to develop them…

Iconos_11_edited.png

External product design agencies

External contractors can develop initial designs, but they may not consider scale beyond an initial prototype

Iconos_12_edited.png

Standard outsourcing development companies

Design and develop the sensors. Many do not consider the end-to-end process and are not involved in the design phase.

Developing scalable IoT prototypes is expensive, time consuming, and has a high rate of failure

icons8-dólar-estadounidense-en-círculo-100.png

High Development Costs

Millions of dollars can be spent to develop functional prototypes either internally or via outsourcing

icons8-tiempo-100.png

Long time to

market

Developing the sensors, and hardware, selecting the connectivity protocals, software, etc., is time consuming.

icons8-tv-off-100.png

Low probability of success

Most IoT products/solution iterations do not go past the proof-of-concept (PoC) / minimum viable product (MVP) phase as up-front work validations were not conducted
