Bring Your Breakthrough Ideas to Life.

3D DESIGN & DRAFTING

Computer-assisted drawing and drafting (CAD) technologies have dramatically improved the efficiency and the tools available to drafting technicians. It has also opened up the potential for high-quality drafting work to be undertaken remotely. Working with expert drafting technicians remotely frees up the time and resources needed to hire in-house, allowing entrepreneurs and startups to leverage maximum value from their budgets.

ACCELERATED PROTOTYPE & PRODUCTION SERVICES

Rapid prototyping, proven to be an invaluable resource for evaluating new product concepts and ideas, while saving time to market
our prototyping production outsource in California, USA is operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to meet your prototype fabrication and low to high-volume manufacturing needs. From speed to expertise to quality, our award-winning prototyping source will accelerate your product development and production timelines

PATENT DRAWINGS & PATENT SUPPORT

Patent attorney support services, provides high-quality patent examiner friendly drawings (Example) to your intellectual property attorneys. You will find the low-cost services we offer save costs and/or add value to your business. I have completed over hundreds of IP-related projects for clients throughout the U.S. The highest compliment we receive concerning the quality and timeliness of our work comes from our clients who provide us with referrals and repeat business.

MANUFACTURING DOCUMENTATION & IMPLEMENTATION OVERSAES

Documentation is an integral part of good manufacturing practices. It defines a system of information and control so that risks so inherent in misinterpretation and/or error in oral communication are minimized. It consequently strengthens the quality, and its consistency, of all goods and services, as those responsible for the specific operations have clear, unambiguous instructions to follow.

PRODUCT REVERSE ENGINEERING

Reverse engineering is a process to bring physical geometry of a marketed competitor product into digital 3D environments, to assess and analyze how that product works, knowing its components, estimate costs and to identify if there is any potential patent infringement.

PHOTO-REALISTIC RENDERINGS

Have you witnessed the non-existing products being imaged by rendering techniques? Wonder how they come out to be so realistic? High quality, life-like animations and images prove essential in bringing any ideas to life and enhance your proposals, submissions and presentations, this allows you to take your product visualization one step further, interact with your product in specific environments and settings whilst ensuring your visuals reflect real life lighting, colors and materials.

Through the development process, I investigate issues about any product by “drawing on” personal experiences.
