App Development

Does your research involve virtual reality and/or augmented reality? Do you have an idea for an app? We build apps on Android, IOS, Magic Leap, Hololens, and Oculus.

The Innovate team can help you at any stage of the process, from idea to final product.

Our process is as follows:

  1. Scoping – we help you clearly define the extent of your project, the deliverables, cost, and timeline

  2. Storyboarding – we produce storyboards so you may see what the app will look like before it's built

  3. Software development – we build it!

  4. Periodic product reviews – we review deliverables with you based on an established timeline

  5. QA – we ensure the application is free of bugs

  6. Publishing – we help you publish the app (if you so desire)
