Bespoke Hardware Design for Innovative Solutions

We engineer across the entire stack — from silicon to cloud — and custom hardware design and development is where some of the most transformative work happens. Because not every breakthrough fits an off-the-shelf mould.

When Custom Hardware Makes the Difference

When a standard board won’t cut it, or when custom design can unlock new levels of performance, efficiency, or feature integration, that’s where we thrive. Our team builds hardware from first principles, crafting custom PCB solutions tailored to your exact requirements.

The Board We Built

Consider a recent project where a client aimed to deploy a network of intelligent LED lighting nodes. This wasn't just about software; it demanded a custom hardware foundation for each node to achieve the desired intelligence and network capabilities.

Crucially, the client required a secure and reliable communication backbone and robust power management. Our full-stack offering included a custom board design that interfaced seamlessly with a Linux edge device and cloud backend. This bespoke board incorporated:

 

  • Eight TPS929120 LED drivers for precise, high-performance illumination in each node.
  • A secure mesh network for robust, scalable, and critically secure communication across the entire lighting system. This ensures reliable data exchange and protects against unauthorised access.
  • A PIC24 microcontroller to intelligently manage solar charging, GPS location and time logging and specific real-time control requirements of the application. It also included an optional AES encrypted Modbus link, enabling secure integration with other industrial control systems. This comprehensive approach allowed for smart features and distributed control, all while efficiently managing power.

The result? A distributed, intelligent hardware platform optimised for power and performance — built for the client’s exact needs.

Full-Stack Integration

This wasn’t just a board; it was a foundation for distributed intelligence, power optimisation, and seamless integration and it’s a prime example of our full-stack capability—from hardware design and firmware development on the embedded board, through to seamless integration with Linux edge devices and cloud backends. We also provide comprehensive Graphical User Interface (GUI) development, ensuring intuitive control and monitoring of your entire system.
