Electronic Product Development

Electronic product development is well known to be a difficult challenge due to the rapid and ever-changing technology and marketing landscapes. Engineering and product development practices have been created to ensure that electronic products have the best chance of success by providing accurate development as well as timely and costly delivery.

At Loutronics, we employ such engineering and product development practices to ensure that we exceed the expectations of our customers. We work with customers to get the necessary information upfront so that we can properly engineer their innovations. No matter where in the product development process our customers are, Loutronics provides valuable services that always please our customers.


System Architecting

System architecting is one of the first steps when creating electronic products, software, or other products. System architecting consists of breaking the innovation down into a cohesive set of sub-components that work together to meet the initial requirements and specifications. This is a critical step where the 'how' is answered for any new product development.

At Loutronics, we have the expertise to properly break your innovation down into a realizable architecture. This architecture typically consists of design documents outlining major components, informational and procedural flows, and interface specifications. Once this step is complete, the development of the components and interfaces can begin. This is usually the first step in the product engineering process.


Electronics Design

Electrical design, sometimes referred to as hardware, consists of creating electrical schematics, designing printed circuit boards (PCBs), prototyping, performing testing and verification, and generating manufacturing outputs.

Loutronics' electrical design engineers provide the highest quality electrical design services. The experience and knowledge of our engineers is critical in allowing us to deliver the highest quality electrical solutions for your product. Contact us today to get started on designing the electronics for your innovation.


Embedded Software

Embedded software, also known as firmware, has typically become the largest, most difficult portion of an electronic product engineering effort. Firmware engineering is the design, development, and testing of the software that executes on the product's electrical processor(s). Firmware is typically the 'brains' of today's electronic products and is responsible for many of the product's marketable features. The more advanced processors become, the more the features and functionality of a product are created in the firmware itself.

Loutronics has a team of dedicated firmware engineers that are experts in delivering firmware solutions for today's technology. In order to deliver high quality and accurate firmware, we follow standard design and development practices with a heavy emphasis on up-front design and design iterations. Once the design is right, we have confidence in our ability to deliver quality and timely firmware solutions that are ready for the world.


Software

Software engineering, or application software engineering, consists of designing, developing, and testing the applications that run on our personal computers. Picking the right solutions given the huge variety of software languages and technology options available today can be an overwhelming task. Let Loutronics' experts help you in your software development endeavor.

Whether it is application development for Windows, Mac, Linux, or another operating system, Loutronics has the software engineers that can fulfill your needs. Contact us today to get started immediately.


Mobile Apps

Mobile applications run on our Apple and Android mobile devices including phones and tablets. Delivering mobile apps that support the multiple operating systems, mobile devices, and app store requirements is a difficult challenge.

Loutronics provides mobile application development services for both Android and Apple mobile devices. Loutronics' services consist of complete design, development, testing, and deployment or any subset of these offerings. Whether you need a proof-of-concept or a fully deployable app, you can partner with Loutronics today to ensure your app's success.


Technology Exploration

Technology exploration is a service provided by Loutronics to determine the technical feasibility of a project or an aspect of a project.

The technology exploration service allows Loutronics and our customers to push the capabilities of today's technologies without taking on the risk of building a product without fully understanding what the technologies' capabilities are. This service is especially applicable when determining whether a technology can be used in non-standard or new ways. Do you have innovations or ideas that push the bounds of today's technology? Contact Loutronics to determine whether such an innovation is reasonable pursuit.


Prototyping

Prototyping is a critical component of any product development endeavor. It is critical for demonstrations, understanding product functionality, and ensuring accurate product development.

At Loutronics, we provide prototyping services for electronic, electro-mechanical, and software products. By mocking up electronics, firmware, and 3D printing of mechanical components, we can provide prototyping at the earliest necessary stage. We also have the capability to provide later-stage prototype builds of larger volumes by utilizing our ability to rapidly create electronics as well as rapid prototyping for mechanical components.


Manufacturing

Once a product is created, it must be prepared and put into manufacturing. This is a challenging feat where the demands are often overlooked. Even the best products have no viability until it can be manufactured on time, within budget, and with the highest quality.

At Loutronics, we provide manufacturing services from small sample and engineering builds to full-scale mass production builds. We also provide services around creating an ecosystem that can be used to manufacture and test any electronic product. Manufacturing service usually consists of preparing by sourcing components, designing manufacturing and assembly plans, the designing and development of custom hardware and software for testing solutions, and preparing for final distribution. For sustaining life-cycle activities, Loutronics can also provide warranty and RMA (returns) solutions.
