product design

product design

for teams whose product gets used one-handed, outdoors, and on a connection that keeps dropping.

for teams whose product gets used one-handed, outdoors, and on a connection that keeps dropping.

designing for real conditions

gloves. glare. cold. a degraded link. one hand already on the controller. the constraints that shape a good operator interface come from the environment it’s used in, not from a brand guideline — and they’re the reason software that demos well can still fail in the field.

innovative design solutions obscure less of the camera feed on small screens. accessibility best practices keep critical elements visible and easy to interact with.

we take on the complexity so that the user doesn’t have to. like with Teal, we found ways to keep devices healthy without a reliable connection.

interfaces for genuinely complex systems

pairing multiple drones and devices. pushing firmware. managing settings across a fleet at once. making that legible on one screen is a design problem before it’s an engineering one.

design that ships

the people designing it are the people building it. sometimes that starts at a blank page; more often it’s joining a product already in flight, with a codebase and a team and decisions already made. either way there’s no handoff wall and no spec that turns out to be unbuildable in sprint three.

Skyward needed to scale fast to meet the needs of customers and stakeholders. we augmented just about every aspect of their business until it was fully acquired by Verizon.

the Darkhive GCS was designed to be the perfect pairing for the YellowJacket. the total package maximizes space and reduces friction.

“RIIS supported us getting a mobile application put together for our drone platforms. they took both technical and user interface input and crafted an application with minimal technical debt that works reliably - which they knew because they put the energy into a robust suite of automated tests while listening to our feedback!”
