​We are inspired by the potential that well-designed products have to reshape our lives, by creating exciting and meaningful experiences. Our design and engineering approach centers around capturing and maintaining the user experience, ...

​We are inspired by the exciting and enriching experiences

that well-designed products can offer us.

Our processes focus

on capturing and maintaining products' design intent as they are developed from concepts into real products.

We use robust technical processes to reduce risk in our

product development cycles.​ These tools, including simulation and analysis, ensure that products are viably released to market, quickly.

Delays typically due to manufacturing

and engineering validation errors.

We unify the diverse stakeholders involved in the product development process. This empowers our customers

to make informed decisions quickly and effectively - focusing resources on the concepts most likely to achieve customer

experience goals at the product level. ​ ​

EVT, DVT and PVT denote the validation stages of development in the design of a thoughtfully

manufactured product, and follow conceptual and prototype work.

EVT - Engineering Validation Test: Can we build small-volume units that function as expected, meeting all functional requirements?

DVT - Design Validation Test: Can we build medium-volume units that function as expected

and look great, meeting all functional requirement and cosmetic/appearance requirements?

PVT - Production Validation Test: Can we build production-volume units that that function as expected, look great, and go together quickly and easily every time, meeting all functional requirements, cosmetic requirements, with great manufacturability metrics (i.e. process capabilities, first pass yield, rolling throughput yield)?
