What we do.

We excel in embedded electronics and software.

We develop embedded products by writing custom algorithms that run on custom built electronics, often featuring wireless connectivity and sensor technology.
Primarily focused on Internet of Things solutions and smart and wearable devices, we develop products for many different industries, like the medical, the small industrial and consumer markets.

How we do it.

Flexibility. Teamwork. Innovation.

With our state-of-the-art knowledge and drive to innovate, we will guide you through our tried-and-tested development process: from feasibility study, to proof of concept, to prototype.
If you want, we will also make sure your product is optimized for manufacturing.

Why Vention?

Projects

We’ve had the pleasure of working on a variety of different projects. For each project we started directly by taking an idea and then designing, developing, and fine-tuning it into a seamless and elegant end product.

jimmy-woo

Jimmy Woo

The eye-gazing interactive light installation at the Jimmy Woo club in Amsterdam is designed to encourage movement. A grid of nine heat sensors register the activity on the dancefloor and translate this into a custom light pattern, visualized through beams of LED-lights. We collaborated with Studio OOOH in this project, by integrating the sensors and the control system.

OWOW MIDIs

The OWOW MIDIs bring the rhythmic feel to digital music. Using the different MIDIs instruments, users can add effects to their musical creations through bodily expression. We designed the MIDIs electronics and software to be universally compatible, able to be used with many different devices and operating systems with MIDI over Bluetooth.

plasmacure

Plasmacure

The Plasmacure PLASOMA is a medical device designed to heal wounds that are or could become chronic. In the electronic pad a cold plasma is created that kills bacteria and promotes wound healing. We co-developed the plasma pulser to be consistent, efficienct and safe to use, taking into account optimal safety measures and medical certification requirements.

Factory Zero

iCEM by FactoryZero is a compact and highly efficient energy module that is easily integrated in existing or new housing projects. With its built-in solar converter and deep home integration, the system is highly suited for energy-neutral projects. We developed an intuitive touch operated display, providing clear power consumption insights for the users. Several sensor modules that are placed throughout the homes, providing even more insight in the environment, are currently in the final stages of development.
