Ideation

We offer assistance in idea generation using systematic creativity and innovation techniques that solve real problems that people care about. Let us help answer your questions about product viability, competitive landscape research, and intellectual property management.

Prototyping

Our prototyping facilities offers a full service electronics lab capable of prototyping your ideas and even small run manufacturing. We stock 1000's of sensors and components, reducing the lead time and prototyping stage of the product development process. We have several different in-house additive manufacturing printers (3D printers) including FDM and stereolithography technologies. We also have dedicated space for laser cutting services, woodworking and metalworking capabilities, and design studios. We brought everything in-house to help better protect your intellectual property, have faster turnaround times, and greater quality control.

Integrated Product Development

Having an idea is only the first step in a multi-step integrated product development process. Next, you'll also need prototyping services, manufacturing development, marketing development, sales, service and support strategies and more. That's where we come in and help. We understand the nuances that are involved in bringing a product to market. We have years of experience working in an integrated product development eco system, and we will leverage all that gained experience to help you succeed. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Although we like sprints too!

Content Marketing

Our facilities include over 1000 square feet of dedicated video, photography, and VFX work space. There are multiple sets and areas where you can craft your story, shoot b-roll, or build just about any type of set needed. We also have all the equipment you'll need to create high end visual effects, audio dubbing, and even a suite of motion controllers and gimbals for those amazing steady shots.

Teaching & Speaking

Our background is in education, both formal and informal. Marc de Vinck, founder of Panoptic Labs, is a professor and Co-Director at Lehigh University who co-developed and co-teaches in the Master of Engineering in Technical Entrepreneurship program. In addition to the last 7 years at Lehigh, he has also spoken at dozens of conferences and events throughout the country about product design, creativity, and experiential learning.
