Market Segment
- Enabling technology
- Funding Details
- We are self-funded to this point. This has allowed us to do the required R&D, place numerous patents, prove need for the technology, produce inventory and start selling product.
- Competitors
- Vector Electronic Company, Twin Industries, Bellin Dynamic Systems
- Product Description
- Every company that designs a product involving electronics must first create a functional prototype. This requires hand-soldering components onto printed circuit boards. This was not an issue until the advent of today’s surface mount components. With SchmartBoard/ez most anyone can now hand-solder the smallest components on the market. This resolves a major issue for industry, education and hobbyists.
- Market Opportunity
- Hard numbers have not been found as this market is very horizontal. Any product that has an electronic component must be prototyped before production can occur. In addition every university that teaches or researches electronic engineering has issues with surface mount components. Not to mention hundreds of thousands of hobbyists.
- DEMO Says
- It takes a sharp eye and a very steady hand to solder tiny chips onto printed circuit boards, and it’s a rare hardware engineer who can do it well. SchmartBoard literally inverts the model so that hardware engineers can quickly build and test designs. The company’s modular component system will allow new hardware designs to get to market more quickly and at lower development costs.
