Welcome to NodOn backstage, where our innovations born and grow!
At NodOn’s, to innovate is to rewrite the codes, to think user experience and technical performance, but it is also create new products answering the market needs. Sylvain, R&D Manager and Alexis, Lead system engineer at NodOn, are giving you NodOn vision of innovation.
How do NodOn innovations start?
Alexis: We take inspiration from our previous projects to invent new products of tomorrow, by working on new technologies that we are the first to experiment. But the most important thing in an innovation birth is teamwork and to create a functional product which will answer the uses, while integrating the new technical specifications.
Sylvain: We think a lot about architecture, we work with leaders of all branches while taking everyone needs and constraints into account. Our goal is always to create an aesthetic product, which answers the required functions and which can be used in everyday’s life.
No innovation born from a single person, it is an exchange of ideas and a collaborative work.
What is the innovation process at NodOn?
S: The different stages are ideation, proof of concept and development. We begin with an idea and we exchange all along the project with the different branches: design, mechanical, firmware and hardware.
A: We think as an overall point of view, we are in a full « teamwork » mode. We exchange, compromise, it is a real team work.
S: Beyond this team work, we follow a product road map to prioritize projects and stay in a logic of constant innovation, while staying open to new technologies appearing on the market. IoT is a highly changing ecosystem.
Any new product exclusivity…?
S : We are working on the roller shutter module, which will allow to control roller shutters, blinds, venitian blinds. This will be a plug & play product which will automatically do the learning process of the roller shutter of which it will be connected. This is a product which has already found its market, even before its official release. And of course, other innovations will be revealed at CES 2018, let’s meet in Las Vegas!
