LeafLabs worked with HiViz to augment the software update capabilities of their light bars.
LeafLabs optimized their system of many interconnected PIC boards run by larger, more complex chips.
LeafLabs worked with HiViz to assess and provide recommendations for improvement of their interconnected light bars, as well as improving aspects of their software update infrastructure.
LeafLabs began with a 2 week scoping engagement; we delivered a comprehensive proposal, scoping out in detail the different aspects of the project desired by HiViz.
We worked closely with the head of embedded engineering at HiViz, augmenting their development capabilities and freeing him up to work on short term, critical projects. We successfully delivered on the milestones proposed, and this helped HiViz upgrade their light bars in the field, a new update functionality, and ensure that future features and requests are possible for existing light systems. This updated infrastructure saved HiViz both time and money; before working with LeafLabs, HiViz often had to repair the bars in their offices, and some bars were very challenging or even impossible to open up for debugging.
