We support concept ideation and engineering exploration with spatial block models and Proof-of-Priciple (POP) Rigs that address and mitigate identified design risks at the earliest stage possible.
Throughout the development of the product, rigs and models are built to test design both through functional verification and ongoing user validation.
In support of DfM (Design for Manufacture), we produce pre-production prototypes, and manage the production of clinical trials samples.
We design and develop lifecycle and environmental test equipment to ensure that pre-production and initial production samples meet the functional requirements of the Product Design Specification.
Our clients typically face a dilemma at the outset of a new project. They need to progress their project far enough to attract the full project funding but often have only limited start-up funds. We take a pragmatic and agile approach to this problem. We have developed many creative approaches that stretch limited budgets and give our clients concept demonstrators to impress the most cynical investors. We will only take your project on if we have total confidence that we can unlock your next round of funding for you. Together with our partners in the Agile Development Network we have developed an approach specifically to help our clients with crowd funding. Click here for full details. 
We have worked closely with psychologists, ergonomists, ethnographers and semioticians over many years who understand the value of the physical object in design research. We have enhanced design research through the creation of physical reserach collateral including:
We have assisted with production implementation by:
