The document describes the team, journey, product, customers, market, and business model of SET (Streamlined Embedded Technologies). SET optimizes sensor networks by providing middleware and reusable software subsystems. This results in more energy efficient, reliable, and secure sensor nodes. SET will sell integrated hardware boards and software IPs directly to companies that design and deploy sensor networks for applications like environmental monitoring and security.

Notes de l'éditeur
- When we first wanted to sell design tools, this was the business model. From this busy canvas, you can see that we knew this market very well. More specifically, we already knew many potential customers.
- These are the customers we talked to.
- We learned two things. First, our customers hesitate to learn new tools. But more importantly, our competitors, the three major companies, offered 95% discount to our potential customers and we simply cannot compete. This led us to make our first pivot.
- So, to enter a more scalablemarket, we decided to sell software IP for 4G wireless communication.
- We talked to manycustomers
- and we found that the 4G market size indeed looks great, but the market is fully dominated and hard for startups to break in. Our customer told us to enter this market, we need $25 million and a guru
- So, after another pivot, we explored the sensor network market. Originally, our plan was to sell software IP to this market. But after talking to the teaching team during the office hour and also discovered through customers that they are really more interested in software combined with hardware, we made our 3rd pivot.
- In a sensor network, sensor such as cameras and microphones are distributed to monitor specific environmental conditions and communicate with each other.Examples: hurricane, at an entrance of an airport to recognize people’s face, on an UAV for battlefield, or around an oil pipeline
- The current problems of sensor networks include power efficiency, security and reliability of the communication. Based on a customer we interviewed, the number of sensor nodes in a network is significantly limited to less than 30 because of these problems..
- Our product can address these problems to enhance power efficiency and provide highly secure and reliable communication. As shown in our story video, our goal is to bring an existing sensor network solution to this so called high performance region so that the system resources can be fully utilized.With these enhancement, sensors can have longer battery life, and more sensor nodes can be used in a network.
- Looked through 3000 conference papers in 2 days, found more than 100 authors from industry. Based on Steve’s suggestion, and it works pretty well
- After processing carefully, we decided to select customer segments across the domains of environmental monitoring, security, and surveillance because we learned that the customers in these domains can benefit the most using our technology. We also found that sensor providers (based on the exceptional response rate) and embedded platform makers would be our key partners.
- This is the summary of our product, value proposition, and select customer segments
- The market is growing dramatically..
- Progression: larger and larger sensor networks deployed
