Circuit design
From schematic to circuit board, available for prototypes and small production runs.
- Schematics and PCB layout
- Sensor and motor driver circuits
- Expansion boards for development boards
- Prototyping, assembly, and volume production
Custom projects
We design, integrate, and build what professors and teachers have in mind
iCShop.EDU has its own circuit, mechanical, firmware, and software engineers, and everything from design to system integration is done in-house. You can commission us to develop experimental vehicles or field sensing systems for research projects, or kits and specialized classrooms for courses.

129 sessionsTeacher training and workshops
Engineering capability
Design and system integration
Teachers share ideas and requirements, and we handle specifications, design, fabrication, and integration testing. Engineers in four disciplines work on one team, so you do not need to find separate vendors.
Mechanical design
We design enclosures and mechanisms for your environment and build them.
- 3D mechanical design
- Mobile platform chassis and grippers
- Teaching lab boxes and protective enclosures
- Wiring and error-proofing design
Firmware and software
From microcontrollers to the cloud, one team writes the code.
- Microcontroller firmware
- ROS / ROS 2 and Linux applications
- AI model deployment on edge devices
- Cloud dashboards and notifications
System integration
We integrate sensing, computing, communication, and mechanics, and test until the system runs reliably.
- LiDAR, camera, and inertial sensor integration
- RS485, LoRa, NB-IoT, and Wi-Fi
- On-site installation and testing
- Operation manuals and training
Programs we can work with
- NSTC research grants
- Ministry of Education Higher Education Sprout Project
- Industry–academia collaboration projects
- Department and school self-funded projects
Documents your project may need
- Specification proposals
- Quotations that meet school reimbursement requirements
- Test records for acceptance
- Operation manuals
Deliverables (as agreed per project)
- Finished product and spare parts
- System architecture diagrams
- Sample code
- Follow-up technical consultation
Same engineering team
From the same engineering team that builds production-line equipment
The group's engineering team also develops measurement and monitoring equipment for the semiconductor, steel, and other industries. School projects follow the same design process and test standards.
- 01You can talk with us before you have a specification, and we will help turn your needs into one
- 02We validate with a prototype first, then build the final version once it works
- 03One research vehicle or dozens of classroom sets—we can take on either
- 04If students will modify the system later, we can arrange training

Interactive quiz vending machine: custom project for a science and technology center
An interactive quiz vending machine built for a science and technology center: Raspberry Pi plus Arduino, a 13.3-inch touchscreen for answering questions, a prize dispensed for correct answers, and a customizable question bank and interface.
How it works
Process
From the first discussion to delivery, one project engineer is responsible.
Initial consultation
We learn about the purpose, functional requirements, operating environment, funding source, and timeline.
Specification review and quote
We provide a feasibility assessment and architecture plan, and issue a quotation that meets school reimbursement rules.
Development and validation
Circuit design, mechanical prototyping, and firmware development, followed by hardware and software integration testing.
Acceptance, delivery, and support
We deliver the finished product and operation manual, and provide follow-up technical consultation.
Inquire about a project
Your message goes straight to our team, and we usually reply within one business day.
- 01Tell us the purpose, audience, and target completion date
- 02Add reference projects or specifications in the notes if you have them
- 03Custom projects are quoted by requirement, and we do not publish prices

Needs beyond schools and research institutions
Engineering and R&D commissions for companies, as well as component purchasing, are handled by two other sites in our group.
