US based start-up in power technology delivering wireless power solutions and technology platform for domains like electronics, wearable, handheld computers, and other devices.
Client wanted to develop an innovative, cost-effective, and Qi certified dual wireless charger that is capable of charging standard Qi-certified devices as well as a proprietary ear bud case simultaneously. They wanted to target USA, Europe, China, Japan, and Korea markets with this product. Being a start-up and having an aggressive timeline to launch the product in the market, client was looking for a strategic development partner that can work as their extended development team to help them design and develop the cost optimized hardware with prototype validation and compliance for FCC and CE (required for target markets).
VOLANSYS as an extended development team of a technology start-up in consumer electronics enabled hardware design and development of a dual wireless charger fulfilling Qi specifications within just 4 weeks. We also helped them to keep the cost of the hardware low for large volumes. Furthermore, VOLANSYS provided pre-compliance testing for FCC and CE enabling easy product certification for cross country selling.
