Workshops

Electronics

Our electronics capabilities include circuit design, construction, surface mount rework, prototyping and small production runs as well as advanced testing and diagnostic facilities. We have extensive electronics design expertise including sensor interfacing, wireless data telemetry and embedded microcontroller code. Applications up to now have included sports, human-interface and medical devices. We specialise in the design of low-power wearable or ambulatory devices for use in the field. Our current work includes long-term logging of sensors with wireless upload to web or smart devices to allow rich user interfaces.

Prototyping and makerspace / Research and development workshop

We have a fully equipped in-house manufacturing and prototype workshop. These facilities are capable of wide-ranging service of in-house fabrication and high-quality precision engineering. We work with a wide range of materials, including bulk metals, foams, plastics and aerospace grade alloys. We offer a range of services from the creation of an initial prototype through to liaison with manufacturers for full production.
