We offer a range of product simulation and prototyping services from low-fidelity, conceptual mockups to show quality, functional sales models. What makes us unique – and what we consider our “niche” – is the wide range of techniques that we employ to enhance your product development cycle. In addition to traditional modeling, we specialize in what we call “smart models,” or hybrid prototypes that can include complex combinations of electronics, lighting, optics, mechanization, and displays with functional graphical interface simulations. Smart models make it possible for your team and its decision-makers to see, feel, and experience the critical elements of their design prior to taking the expensive step into manufacturing launch phase..

 

Our technologies include:

• User interface simulation
• Prototype electronics, design and build
• Lighting development and optical prototyping
• Graphics and appliqué development
• Functional show quality or sales models
• Adobe Flash actionscript development
• User-testing fixtures, simulations and data collection
• Theme modeling in CAD, clay or foam
• Design mockups, sketch models
• Rendering and animation

 

This comprehensive and multi-disciplinary approach includes a combination of specialized techniques with ongoing development of new capabilities to meet our customers’ ever growing expectations.

The principals of Techniche have combined experience of over 50 years in design, 3D modeling, electronics, and exhibit creation. Our unique background and combined skill set affords us valuable insight into our clients needs and allows us to design and build to an appropriate level at each stage of development. We can assist you at any level, and at any stage of your project. Our involvement will help your teams make better design decisions faster.
