What Our Clients Say About Us..

i-boll – Novitatech

“Aaron has been involved in the i-boll development since it’s inception and has played (and is playing) a critical role in producing a device that can help people with loss of fine motor function to effectively connect to the internet, computer, gaming or any device that accepts Bluetooth control. I have found Aaron to be extremely competent, resourceful and interested in i-boll. Aaron offers options and solutions that are realistic, innovative and cost effective. I recommend Aaron Mohtar & Co to any commercialisation project involving electronic design. (Just don’t take him away from the i-boll project!)”
Mark Stewart, General Manager, Novitatech

Interfacial Pressure Sensor Platform – Parkki.

“With limited resources available to dedicate to the project we chose to work with Aaron Mohtar & Co to efficiently manage the design and fabrication of the necessary electronic components to facilitate our market testing of prototypes. We were thoroughly impressed with the professional and skilled manner with which Dr Mohtar firstly understood our needs, helped assess a minimum entry point with respect to device functionality and turned out a flexible electronic platform that could satisfy our immediate needs with a great touch screen user interface. We are currently planning the next stages of development with the assistance of AM & Co. I have no hesitation in strongly recommending AM & Co as a development partner.” 
Dr Luke Parkinson, Director, Parkki Pty Ltd

Shoulder Mobiliser – Global Movement

“We approached Aaron Mohtar in late 2020 with a rough prototype of our hand-held motorised rehabilitation device, with a view of refining our design towards a proof of concept and medical trial stage. Aaron’s expertise and knowledge in working with such a device was truly invaluable in transforming our ideas into a functional prototype. We have found Aaron fantastic to work with, professional to deal with and highly advanced in his circuit design and functional input. This has enabled us to move forward with our project very quickly, and I would not have any hesitation to highly recommend Aaron for any assistance with progressing your ideas into reality.”
Luke Mason, Global Movement Pty Ltd
