Top-quality VR prototype on time, excelling in expertise and communication—highly recommended!

Our experience with EnCata was exceptional. They took on the challenging task of designing and developing a virtual reality headset for sports training, delivering a functional prototype despite the tight timeline. Their expertise in custom hardware design, electronics, and manufacturing was evident at every stage. They successfully addressed critical factors like the device's weight without compromising functionality. The team was proactive, asking insightful questions and recommending adjustments to enhance the project, which made the process smoother and more efficient.

Mechanical Development of Large Scale Industrial IOT Sensor that Withstands Harsh Environment

This is the second project I've worked on with EnCata and I continue to be impressed. The first project was electrical and firmware engineering intensive and this one was mostly mechanical in nature. In both cases, EnCata delivered solid engineering work, which is a testament to the breadth and depth of their capabilities. On this most recent project, we developed a large and complex IOT sensor assembly that is used in a harsh environment. We collaborated with EnCata entirely remotely. Although most of their engineers don't speak English fluently, their project managers do.

"Fabrication of a large electromechanical appliance."

I selected EnCata after researching about 50 firms globally from Japan to San Diego. Eventually my decision was driven by the availability of in-house design and fabrication capabilities and by costs. While other firms may have one but not the others, EnCata has both under the same roof, which allowed me to prototype very quickly. You can literally walk from the engineering department to the manufacturing shop. It’s amazing. The team at EnCata is skilled across the entire manufacturing spectrum, including electronic design, mechanical design, simulation, programming, DFM, and so forth.
