WMD Tech approached SGW Designworks for assistance developing a collapsing deployment system for field x-ray systems in hostile environments. The need for fast turnaround plus low projected volume constrained the design to use primarily commercially available components and materials. Initial concepts and prototypes were ready for testing three days after the project began, with production units ready for shipping three weeks after that. This project was profiled in "The Lean Startup" by Eric Ries.
