Objective
Our client is an American electronics-consuming company that came to us with the idea of creating connectivity for a feature-rich digital guitar.
Challenge
The connectivity subsystem project tasked to Rockers Team was a highly complex and challenging undertaking, but our team was up to the task.
Our engineers worked diligently to develop a cutting-edge system that would seamlessly connect the guitar, smartphone, and speakers/headphones into a single unit.
To achieve this, we had to develop a system that could transfer user commands and recorded audio from/to the smartphone using both Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and WiFi protocols. In addition, we implemented a feature that would allow the stereo sound to be transmitted to speakers/headphones using Bluetooth, while also enabling control of internal audio components through MIDI via USB.
Solution
Our team conducted extensive research to select the right technologies and components to achieve the client's goals.
We also worked closely with the client to ensure that the final product met all of their unique requirements and exceeded their expectations.
We’ve decided to build an Agile team that will hold the full set of technologies and skills to implement the Client’s idea. For the best possible understanding of the project, we had weekly meetings and reports to the client. The project was big and complicated but very challenging and interesting. The whole process took our team of 4 engineers about a year to finish.
Results
The Rockers team assisted the client, who was developing a digital guitar, in establishing its connectivity. We enabled the integration of the guitar with smartphones, speakers, and its internal components (I2C and MIDI), which contributed to an increase in user numbers and an enhanced user experience through the use of this feature-rich instrument.
In summary, this project exemplifies the Rockers Team’s dedication to providing innovative solutions that surpass our client’s expectations. Our commitment lies in advancing the frontiers of technology and engineering to support our clients in realizing their objectives and maintaining a competitive edge.
