Smart Displays & Connected Home Devices

Engineering for smart displays and connected home devices, from the team that built LaMetric TIME and LaMetric SKY, took them into volume production and runs a fleet scaling toward 100,000 devices.

The challenge

Engineering challenges

Consumer devices have to look good, cost little, set up in minutes and keep improving for years after purchase. We have solved these problems for our own LaMetric products: industrial design and electronics, firmware and embedded Linux, mobile apps, volume production and over-the-air updates for a fleet in customers’ homes.

Industrial design that fits a home, with electronics that fit the design

The enclosure sets the shape, so boards, antennas and heat have to work inside it without compromise.

Low BOM cost at consumer volumes

Every cent per unit counts, so cost has to be designed in from the first schematic, not cut later.

Simple setup through a companion app on unreliable home Wi-Fi

If onboarding fails on a weak home network, the device comes back as a return.

Safe OTA updates and new features for years after launch

Updates have to reach every device in the field and never brick one.

From prototype to volume production and certification

Moving from a working prototype to certified, repeatable production is where many products stall.

How we engineered a modular light where every panel has its own electronics and firmware, yet any shape on the wall maps itself with one phone scan and updates over the air as one product.
