On July 10, 2013 in Santa Clara at Qualcomm, SVForum’s Digital Media SIG hosted Jeff McAlvay, Tempo Automation’s Co-Founder and CEO’s presentation “Rapid Iteration for an Internet of Things.” McAlvay demonstrated a software application and a robot that can etch traces, apply solder paste, place components, reflow connections, and test a circuit board.
McAlvay said “Today, prototypes cost thousands of dollars (folks in the audience mentioned prototypes they had seen that cost $1500 and $8000). In the future, prototypes will have a shorter iteration cycle, stay securely within the company’s walls, and be more affordable.”
