Prototyping of electronic devices: Major Barriers and Strategies to Overcome Them
Prototyping electronic devices is one of the most important stages of the design process – the point at which an idea begins to take shape. It is not just about testing technical assumptions, but also a strategic exercise requiring precise planning, optimisation and functional analysis. It is at this stage that potential errors are identified, individual components are refined and the readiness of the product for series production is assessed. However, successful prototyping is not without its challenges – from selecting the right components to iterative testing and system integration. At Comarch, with many years of experience in IoT development, we have a deep understanding of the complexity of the electronic device prototyping process and the difficulties that engineers have to face. We also know how to remedy them.
