What We Do

Full-Stack Engineering

Electronic solutions benefit from a deep understanding of Software, Firmware and Hardware. Many companies offer only part of the solution — we understand all these fields and the tight relationship between them, delivering simpler, cheaper and more reliable results.

Engineering services

Hardware Design

Microcontroller, digital, power and analogue circuits — specialising in ultra low power design.

R&D

Proof of concept software and hardware, prototype electronic devices and complete systems.

Software Design

PC-based bespoke software and database applications, embedded software and firmware.

About Us

Trusted by Industry Leaders

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 world's largest companies including the following:

GE Lighting
INRIX
Landis+Gyr
Neopost
PTS
Schlumberger
Siemens
Alstom
Thorn
