Hire the Best Robotics Engineers

I am Chanaka Prasad, Founder and CEO of Idea8, a product development and engineering company specializing in hardware, robotics, IoT, embedded systems, automation, and AI-enabled product development. At Idea8, we help startups, manufacturers, and product companies turn ideas into working prototypes, MVPs, pilot systems, and production-ready solutions. Our team combines electronics, mechanical design, firmware, PCB design, 3D design, software, AI, and manufacturing support under one roof, which allows us to move faster and solve problems end-to-end instead of handing work between disconnected freelancers. What we can help you build: ✅ Hardware product prototypes and MVPs ✅ IoT systems, dashboards, and connected devices ✅ Robotics and automation systems ✅ PCB design and embedded firmware development ✅ ESP32, STM32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Jetson, and custom electronics ✅ Machine vision and AI inspection systems ✅ UAV, rover, and robotic platform development ✅ 3D CAD design, enclosure design, and 3D printing ✅ Manufacturing-ready product development and supplier support Our approach is simple: we do not just “build what is asked.” We first understand the product goal, technical risk, cost target, user environment, and manufacturing path. Then we design the right engineering solution with the correct balance between performance, budget, timeline, and scalability. We are especially strong in projects where hardware, software, firmware, mechanics, and real-world testing need to work together. Many product development projects fail because each part is built separately. Idea8 solves this by managing the complete development process from concept to working prototype and beyond. Core technical capabilities: • Embedded systems and microcontroller programming • Firmware development using C, C++, Python, and related tools • PCB design, schematic design, and electronics integration • IoT platforms using ThingsBoard, Blynk, cloud dashboards, and custom web apps • Robotics, automation, motor control, sensors, and actuator systems • Computer vision, AI inspection, and real-time data systems • SolidWorks, 3D CAD, mechanical design, and enclosure development • 3D printing, rapid prototyping, testing, and product iteration If you are looking for a team that can think like engineers, execute like product builders, and communicate clearly like a long-term technical partner, Idea8 can help. We are best suited for clients who need serious engineering execution, not just basic task completion. Whether you are building a new hardware product, improving an existing system, automating a factory process, or developing an IoT/robotics solution, we can support you from the first prototype to a manufacturable product. Let’s build something real.

Your MATLAB or Simulink project deserves an engineer who gets it right the first time, every time. With 12+ years and 100% Job Success, that engineer is here. I deliver validated, production-ready simulation and modeling solutions for engineers, researchers, and companies worldwide covering Digital Twin Development, AI-Powered Control Systems, Reinforcement Learning, Smart Grid Modeling, Physics-Informed Neural Networks, Predictive Maintenance, Model-Based Design, Embedded Coder, PID/LQR/MPC/State-Space Controllers, Power Electronics, Renewable Energy Systems, EV and Battery Management Systems, Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing, Signal Processing, System Identification, Mathematical Modeling, Embedded Systems, Stateflow, Computer Vision, Robotics System Toolbox, MIL/SIL/PIL/HIL Verification, Automotive and Aerospace Simulation, IEEE and Scopus Research Paper Models, and Optimization and Algorithm Development. Every project starts with full requirements analysis, ends with a clean validated well-documented model, delivered on time with free revisions until you are 100% satisfied. No matter how complex your project is I have seen it, built it, and delivered it. Message me now and let us get started.

I'm a mechanical and robotics engineer with an ME degree from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology and focuses in robotics and CAD. I have dual SolidWorks certifications (CSWP and Surfacing Professional) and hands-on experience delivering production-ready designs at the Fortune 500 level — and I genuinely love the craft of making things work. I've worked for Gentex Corporation and Keurig-Dr. Pepper, and am currently designing my own speed-training device for athletes. At a Gentex, I designed 20+ parts that went into active assembly lines, tackling tricky requirements like vacuum sealing, electrical isolation, and contamination resistance. At a Keurig, I worked alongside professional design teams on a new coffee brewer feature — designing functional mechanisms, user-facing parts, and even developing a control algorithm for a thermodynamic process. On the academic side, I led a team of 4 engineers to build a cable-resistance speed training device for athletes, owning everything from the SolidWorks modeling and gearbox design to motor controls and embedded firmware. I bring a well-rounded toolkit: strong DFM instincts, machine shop experience, advanced mechanism design, and coding proficiency in MATLAB, Python, C++, and JavaScript. Whether you need a complex assembly modeled, a part designed for real-world manufacturing, or a mechanism that actually has to work — I'd love to help. Let's connect!

I help clients turn early-stage hardware ideas into working prototypes, combining mechanical design, PCB layout, embedded firmware, sourcing, and hands-on debugging I’m a mechanical and electrical engineer with over 10 years of experience, specializing in taking ideas from concept to functional prototype. My career began in industrial design and new product development, where I focused on mechanical systems, custom fixtures, and precision components. Building on that foundation, I expanded into PCB design, embedded systems, and software/firmware design, allowing me to bridge the gap between mechanical and electrical engineering for projects that demand both. My recent work includes CoreSync, a neuroplasticity-driven motor training system; Alerta, a suite of sensors for monitoring elderly patients; the Hair Protractor, a compact ring-mounted tool with integrated PCB and OLED display; and a wireless RGB headphone system with custom electronics and housing. I’ve also designed specialized cryogenic systems, industrial hardware, and automated test devices for labs. Clients value my ability to deliver complex prototypes quickly and reliably. Clients typically see working hardware within about three weeks, depending on complexity. I’ve built lasting relationships with clients like Alerta, where I’ve supported multiple sensor-based devices, and with a wireless headphone company, where I developed a full ecosystem of sensors and user interfaces. My engineering work has been published in the ASME Journal of Medical Devices, and I’ve led designs for organizations like the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), giving clients confidence that I can handle demanding technical challenges. If you need an engineer who can design, build, and validate prototypes that work the first time, I can help.
