Rapid prototyping is a fundamental component of A&W's engineering service. Clients can test out a device, algorithm, or application in alternative settings — even with real-world usage scenarios — long before committing to a final product.
We leverage Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and other platforms — along with off-the-shelf prototype systems and 3D-printed custom mechanical components — so you can take the system into the field to collect real data samples.
We create multiple algorithm models for implementation and verification — packaged with sample data generators and visualization tools, from floating-point implementations to bit-exact models that run on embedded hardware.
For clinical software, we build wireframe-based UI models across computers, tablets, and smartphones (iOS and Android) to evaluate user experience and workflow before final product release.
Our prototypes span the entire sensing system core — from the user interface and algorithms to embedded software, signal processing, the analog front end, and the sensors.
Prototyping lets you de-risk decisions before they get expensive. Get a working system into the field, gather real data, refine algorithms, and prove out the user experience — all before you commit to a final design.
See how we add AIA prototype is only useful if it is built from the same engineering as the product. These are the capabilities behind ours.
Schematic capture and PCB layout, from a quick proof of concept through to production-ready boards.
