How to speed up the design decision process

In today’s business environment, with shorter and shorter product life cycles, the time to market can be very critical. The more time used in the development phase the shorter time you will have to generate revenue with a new product. Or even worse - your competitor might launch a similar product before you, and that way gain a substantial competitive advantage by being first.

So, beyond any doubt – reducing the time to market without compromising the quality will benefit your business.

In this webinar we will present tips and tricks to create visual as well as functional keycap prototypes. Considerations to remember before starting the production of the prototypes, overview of different technologies… you will be able to choose the right option for your next keycap prototype!

WHY YOU SHOULD MOVE TO CANBUS HMIs

Switch from a multicomponent design to an all-in-one solution for your HMI.

If your special vehicle application is already equipped with a CANbus architecture, there is no need to assemble single HMI components. Rather, think of your entire panel as an all-in-one HMI solution. The CANbus system helps you maximize the ergonomics and design of your HMI solution while increasing the number of functionalities available to the end-user.

Off-road vehicles, 2-wheel electric vehicle… whatever the application, discover why you should switch to the CANbus system.
