About

From our own products to yours

Smart Atoms is the engineering team behind LaMetric, building connected products since 2013.

Where it started

LaMetric began in 2013 with one idea: a clock that shows more than the time. In 2014 we brought LaMetric TIME, a smart display, to life with a Kickstarter campaign. Its design won a Red Dot Design Award in 2016.

From award-winning design to volume production

We took that same design into volume production with Foxconn. That is the balance we bring to every client product: industrial design that customers notice, engineered so it can be made at scale.

A family of products

LaMetric SKY followed: a modular display people shape on their walls. Then LaMetric Solar Glance, digital signage for the energy industry that turns solar plant data into clear, live screens.

Toward 100K scale

Our devices run in 20+ countries, in a fleet scaling toward 100,000 units. We update, monitor and support them every day. That experience goes into every product we build for clients.

Our playbook, now for your product

We started Smart Atoms to help OEMs and ISVs go from prototype to a fleet in the field faster and in a more secure way, based on our own experience of building and running connected products.

For OEMs and ISVs

OEMs get one team for the whole product: concept, electronics, firmware, embedded Linux, certification, production and the fleet in the field.

ISVs get the hardware, embedded software, OTA and fleet tooling their software needs to run reliably on devices, without building a hardware team of their own.

What we bring

Everything we learned building LaMetric, applied to your product.

Product thinking

We own products too, so we weigh unit cost, schedule and field reliability the way you do.

Whole lifecycle

Product development, architecture, build, CI/CD, manufacturing, operations, cost-down and rescue, in-house.

Volume production

Foxconn volume production experience: designs that pass the factory, not just the lab.

Proven at 100K scale

OTA, monitoring and support from running our own fleet, scaling toward 100,000 devices.

One in-house team

Hardware, firmware, embedded Linux, cloud and app engineers who have built, shipped and supported products together since 2013.
