RDM Technology Ltd
Diverse Electronics
RDM Technology research, design and develop electronic and software based products. Our electronic products range from database applications to tiny electronic devices.
Rapid Solutions
Our staff have solved many problems using electronic devices and software since 1980, and have often been at the forefront of technology. With our experience we aim to reach reliable solutions very quickly.
Services
Electronic solutions benefit from a good understanding of Software, Firmware and Hardware. Many companies offer only part of the solution because they only specialise in one these fields. If two or more fields are involved the project can quickly become over complicated due to the interfacing and specifications required. We understand all these fields and the tight relationship between them so offer a much simpler, cheaper and reliable solution.

About Us
RDM Technology Ltd was founded by Rob Martin. Spun from Polarsoft limited originally founded in 1991.
Over the years we have developed many products used by millions of people around the world. Electronic products are often very complex to design so we strive to develop using the simplest processes and techniques so as not to make the job even more complex.
We have worked with very small and some of the worlds largest companies including the following
