Develop a hardware prototype quickly and efficiently

Do you want to develop a hardware prototype and test your idea in practice? At SST Hardware, we guide companies from idea to working prototype. Thanks to our in-house knowledge of hardware, software, mechanics, and design, we help organizations turn ideas into reality and validate technical concepts quickly.

From idea to prototype in three steps

A well-functioning prototype helps you seize opportunities faster and limit technical risks. We support you throughout the entire process, from the initial analysis to the delivery of a functional hardware prototype. Our goal is to work practically and results-oriented, so you quickly gain insight into the technical feasibility of your idea and thus make a leap forward.


Our approach is aimed at quickly getting to the core and exploring innovation opportunities in a smart and accessible way. Every organization and market is different and requires its own solution and approach. Our approach is synonymous with a continuous process of discovery, learning, and growth. We achieve this through the following three clear steps.

Pattern SST

Discovery

Do you have an idea for a new product or a technical improvement, but unsure if it's practically feasible? We help translate technical possibilities into concrete applications. In the exploratory phase, we map out processes, bottlenecks, and goals. This helps us determine where prototype development is useful and which approach is most appropriate.


We answer questions such as:

  • Which technical solutions align with your process?
  • How can you eliminate technical risks with a hardware prototype?
  • What's the best way to test your idea in practice?

Research

Uncertainty often plays a role in developing new technology. That's why we build simple proof-of-principle setups or prototypes to test ideas. This allows us to test important functions before you invest further in full-scale product development.


You can consider:

  • A mock-up for validating user interaction
  • A technical test setup to see a concept in action
  • A hardware prototype for initial practical experience

Development

Do you already have a concrete idea that, after preliminary research, appears promising and has critical technical components been validated? Then we can help you further develop the concept into a fully functional hardware prototype. This allows you to test the idea in practice, gather user feedback, and further optimize the technical operation before moving to series production.


We develop prototypes with a focus on:

  • Electronics design and printed circuit board production
  • Embedded software for control and data processing
  • Housing and mechanical integration
  • Functional testing and clear documentation


Our combined knowledge of software, hardware, mechanics, and design allows us to develop complex prototypes tailored to your market and end-user.

Partner in innovation

Organisations often have ideas about existing bottlenecks or opportunities for innovation, but frequently encounter barriers:

Complex process

It is a complex process to achieve a good result. What steps do you need to take and in which sequence? How do you integrate solutions into the market?

Insight into technical possibilities

It is difficult for organisations to gain a sufficient insight into the technical possibilities of today.

Financial uncertainty

The likelihood of success is not guaranteed and therefore carries financial risks. It is a challenge to find a partner with a grip on all these things.

Experience has shown that there is often a need for an innovation partner who is set up in a way that removes the barriers in question. An environment that is up to date with the latest (and emerging) technological possibilities, that has broad technical expertise, the ability to think outside the box, and can safeguard the client’s business case. A partner that goes to work in an accessible and pragmatic way. That is SST!


SST Hardware focuses on technical innovations and we have the necessary expertise for software, hardware, mechanics and design in-house. Without exception, knowledge areas that are necessary for getting technical innovations off the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions about Prototyping

How long does a prototyping process take?

This depends on the complexity of the idea and the potential ambiguities it contains. This can take a few weeks, but it can take up to a year. We structure the process in clear steps, so that we work towards common goals each time and then take the next step in the process.

What materials can you use?

In our lab we keep our eyes open. This means that we do not limit ourselves to certain materials. Whether it is metals, gases or plastics or complex electronics, if it contributes to your innovation we will apply it!

Can you also just build a prototype without a final product?

Yes, you can have us develop prototype hardware without us being involved in serial production.

How quickly can you develop a prototype?

This depends on the complexity. Because we handle everything in-house, we can usually respond quickly.

Can I also supply parts for the prototype?

Yes, we can work with components or materials you provide.

Do you test the prototype before delivery?

Yes, prototypes are always functionally tested to ensure the hardware works as intended.
