Embedded electronics consultancy ByteSnap Design will showcase its expertise in industrial IoT engineering and product lifecycle management at the Engineering Design Show (EDS) 2025, where it will be on stand H52.
The Birmingham-based firm will present its engineering role in the third-generation WAND Handheld Data Collector (HDC), created for industrial sensing specialist Inductosense, and will officially debut its new Obsolescence Management as a Service (OMaaS) solution.
These highlights underline ByteSnap Design’s capability to develop cutting-edge embedded systems that address critical challenges for manufacturers, ranging from advanced sensing technologies to efficient component lifecycle management.
Visitors to EDS will see the latest version of the WAND HDC – an innovative handheld device for pipe thickness monitoring from Inductosense, a recipient of the King’s Award for Innovation. Although the product is owned and commercialised by Inductosense, ByteSnap Design was tasked with leading the embedded electronics and firmware overhaul, resulting in a significant boost in performance for the third-generation model.
The new design delivers faster operating speeds, reduced production costs, longer battery life, enhanced high-speed data communications, a more user-friendly interface, and compliance with current IoT cybersecurity standards.
“This project exemplifies the power of British engineering collaboration,” said Dunstan Power, Director at ByteSnap Design.
“Working with Inductosense – a King’s Award winner at the absolute forefront of industrial sensing innovation – we’ve been able to apply our embedded systems expertise to enhance nearly every aspect of their already exceptional technology. From operating speed and battery life to cybersecurity compliance, this represents a classic improvement of an existing product using the latest technology to achieve maximum resilience and world-class performance.”
