Developing Hardware
A crash landing in a famous soccer coach’s backyard. A middle-of-the-night bolt of inspiration. An explosion of pink smoke. These memorable moments punctuated Sunflower Labs’ hardware development process as they built their multi-component drone security system. In sharing the story of how they built their hardware product, they share tips — like the importance of fully understanding what problem you’re solving and the need for tireless testing — that apply to any entrepreneurial endeavor.
