Making the Internet of Things a Reality

OUR SERVICES

We solve IoT technical problems at any level—whether you need a complete system designed, a specific component developed, or expert guidance on part of your existing project.

OUR APPROACH

We start with the real business problem, identify what needs to be done and how that creates actionable results. Then we build the minimum viable solution and iterate based on actual performance.

OUR RESULTS

When IoT works, clients automate what was manual, monitor what was invisible, and control what was unpredictable - reducing costs, improving quality, and reduce the burden on their teams.

HOW WE DO IT

Traditional hardware development fails because it forces lengthy upfront planning for inherently uncertain projects. Our lean engineering methodology adapts agile principles to hardware and systems development.

Single Point of Control: You get one experienced lead with broad engineering skills who handles multiple disciplines—no team coordination headaches, no multiple contractor management.

Risk-First Sprints: We break projects into short cycles focused on eliminating the highest risks first. Each sprint produces tangible results and clarifies what's actually needed versus what was assumed.

Complete Transparency: All work product is published at the end of each sprint—you always own and have access to everything created, regardless of project status.

Flexible Engagement: Time and materials billing in 30-minute increments. Stop or pause anytime. Risk is limited to the small scope of each sprint—no massive upfront commitments.

Expert Network: When specialized skills are needed, we bring in focused expertise for specific tasks rather than expanding the core team.

The result: faster development, lower risk, retained ownership of all work, and products that solve the right problems.

MEET MIKE MITCHELL

FOUNDER

As a leader and contributor to small teams of talented people, I develop technology solutions that define new markets and customer experiences.

By using a variety of internal and external resources, Panometric provides a ready-made engineering team. In addition to being a pioneering engineer, I’m a polymath, a tech jack-of-all-trades, and a pragmatic business person, able to take ideas and products from napkin-scribbles to final production.

My love of science, nature, music, ethics, and fulfilling human potential inform my work.

SCHEDULE A CONSULT

If you have an application for technology, a product that needs to be implemented, or just want to network or bounce ideas off someone, I reserve some time for this in and out of business hours. Feel free to reach out.
