R&D and product teams
Teams that need a clear technical path from first prototype to product-level architecture, with risks exposed early.
Custom system development
From idea to field-ready system.
Custom hardware, local AI and rugged embedded systems. We design the electronics, software, mechanics and physical package together.

Not an off-the-shelf product. A working system designed around the requirement.
Alterra treats electronics, software, mechanics and field conditions as one design problem. The goal is not a quick bench-top showcase; it is a system architecture that can survive the real environment.
Who it is for
For teams turning a technical idea into a field-ready system.
We are most useful when an off-the-shelf product is not enough and hardware, software and the physical package need to be designed together.
Field-driven businesses
Organizations that need measurement, control, computer vision or automation to work in the real environment, not only on a desk.
Custom project owners
Ideas that require sensors, cameras, motors, mechanical structures and software to operate as one system.
Problems we fit
We turn an unclear idea into a measurable technical scope.
We step in when a system has to read signals or images, make local decisions, control physical hardware, collect field data or move from a bench prototype into a durable physical package.
- Local systems that decide from sensor, camera or user input
- Applications that control motors, relays, lights, mechanisms or panels
- Physical packages exposed to heat, humidity, dust, vibration or maintenance constraints
- Projects that need to move from development boards toward a cleaner product architecture
- Prototypes, test setups, validation work and productization paths that are still technically undefined
First call output
The first call should produce a technical decision list, not a sales promise.
-
Scope map
We clarify what must be measured, controlled, where it must operate and what success means.
-
Risk and architecture sketch
We outline the first approach for sensors, compute, power, mechanical package, software flow and field constraints.
-
Next step
We turn the discussion into a concrete development step: prototype, analysis, discovery, part selection or a formal quote.
What we build
Technical parts, designed as one system.
Embedded System Design
Control and data acquisition units based on ESP32, Arduino, STM32, RP2040, Raspberry Pi and similar platforms.
Edge AI Integration
Local vision pipelines, object detection and decision loops that do not depend on the cloud.
Mechanical Design & Rapid Prototyping
Enclosures, mounting parts, carrier structures and quick validation through 3D printing.
Field-Ready Packaging
Physical packages planned around dust, water, temperature, vibration and maintenance conditions.
Simulation & Engineering Analysis
Thermal distribution, mechanical load and critical risks reviewed before hardware is produced.
How we work
A controlled path from requirement to field.
-
Understand the problem
We clarify the operating environment, constraints, measurement/control needs and success criteria.
-
Design the system
Electronics, software, mechanics and the physical package are planned within the same architecture.
-
Validate with prototype or simulation
When needed, we use quick prototypes, test setups or thermal/mechanical analysis to expose risk early.
-
Prepare it for the field
Connections, mounting, heat, humidity, dust and service conditions are handled before deployment planning.

You do not need every technical detail ready. Share the need and the environment; we can shape the development path from there.
