Ome Smart Knob

Spanner played a pivotal role in the development of Ome’s innovative Smart Knob, a smart home device that successfully exceeded crowdfunding expectations in 2021. Our engineering expertise was instrumental in transforming Ome’s vision into a tangible product, ensuring its technical feasibility and setting the stage for a successful crowdfunding campaign.

As the lead engineering team, Spanner oversaw the development of the mechanical, electrical, firmware, and app components. Operating within stringent constraints on size, durability, battery life, and safety, our team successfully redesigned the product’s aesthetics while maintaining a user-friendly experience. By optimizing the core mechanisms for size reduction, increased torque, and lower costs, we validated the product's architecture and laid a strong foundation for future development.

Spanner’s rigorous validation process ensured that the Smart Knob prototypes were fully functional and ready to showcase to potential backers on crowdfunding platforms. This meticulous attention to detail empowered Ome to not only secure funding but also generate significant market attention for their revolutionary smart home solution.
