Rapid Prototyping Services Australia

We can develop your concept from scratch, we are specialists in connected iOT electronic and mechanical applications for industry and consumer markets. 

We Bring Your Concept To Life

The mobile world is rapidly merging with real world products, new ‘connected” applications are being conceived and developed to meet the growing demand from industry and consumers.

Smarterapps has the capability to design and develop physical products to work in conjunction with mobile devices and applications. We work with our clients from concept design through to production and manufacturing stage.

Design Comes First

Got an idea or concept that needs to be developed into a prototype?

  • Or a working prototype that needs to be developed into a production ready product or item?
  • Or a product that needs to be re-designed in order to make it more economical to manufacture?
  • How about your own tooling to make or assemble your product?
  • Do you need a special purpose machine designed for a unique application?

We can help you reach your design goals no matter how simple or complex the task.

Supporting Applications Developed

When your invention has a software component we have decades of combined experience in the mobile to cloud space. The Smarterapps team have the right combination of skills and hands on experience to bridge the software and hardware world. 

Prototyping Applications

Rapid prototyping is  commonly applied in software development to test new business models and application architectures in many industries including Consumer Products, Aerospace, Logistics, Manufacturing, Automotive, Product development, and healthcare just to name a few. In most cases during discovery we develop “hollow” clickable prototypes of applications in order to align with client expectations.

Rapid Prototyping allows designers/developers to provide an accurate idea of the potential outcome before putting too much time and money into the project. 

3D Printing & Prototyping

3D printing is now commonly used for Rapid Prototyping everything from housings to short life cycle mechanical components to help with proof of concept working models.

A Recent iOT Project - Level Control System Prototype

We developed this hardware and software solution to measure and store real time data during the production, storage and ageing of wine, specifically the bulk wine production industry where storage tanks can be as tall as 17 meters.  The process of manually dipping large tanks with a measuring tape was highly inefficient, inaccurate and posed significant safety risks. Our system enables highly accurate real time inventory measurement from a mobile device or desktop in a matter of seconds. This system has applications that extend beyond bulk wine production, the system can be adapted to other liquids and even solids. 

Proof Of Concept

The first version was a light weight float based system that worked under workshop conditions and proved that we could deliver an effective accurate solution. The first version did not measure CO2 or O2.

How It Looks Today

The third major evolution of the level control hardware is quite different to the earlier versions. Decisions were made about the form factor based on manufacturing costs and servicing the internals of the units. This version of the unit will be superseded yet another form factor in the near future as we introduce some new mechanical components that will allow us more freedom with the speed variations.  The new version will also be fully portable and make use of 4g / 5g and a battery solar option. 

In House Design, Production And Assembly Services

Depending on the type of product and the specific volume requirements we have the capacity to do short run production and assembly of electromechanical hardware.  This includes our own local PCB designs and production line. We have full  design capabilities in both through hole and surface mounting technology. Our experience enables us to  tailor the right combinations of electronic and mechanical design for your application.   All aspects of the electronic designs are created digitally using software platforms  (Altium Designer), and LTSpice used for simulation and analysis as required.
