Quenite Corporation, Florida

Las Vegas

Map Tracker

Vinland designed the very advanced, high-end Spyder 9000 System. This is a comprehensive system for golf courses that combines custom dash-mounted computers in the individual cars, that are linked with a clubhouse management system. The golfers enjoy high accuracy GPS "Distance-to-Pin" information, aerial views, video fly-overs, scoring, games, and many other features, while the golf course benefits from the communication equipment to track all cars on the course. Five patents have been issued to Mr. Boman for the GPS-based measurement technology with several more pending.

A business plan, marketing strategy, and public relations campaign were also created by Vinland, and culminated with a very successful PGA Golf show in Orlando.



A Large US Vending Machine Company

Vending Machine

Over a 14 year period, Vinland designed most of their line of products, from simple to complex vending machines and different types of product dispensers. Except for the external styling, the mechanical, electrical, and software were designed by Vinland. There are now more than 25 models being produced. The company is one of the top suppliers of vending machines in the US. The custom electronics and wiring are also manufactured for them by Vinland.



Genesis, Inc., Singapore

Remote-and-Phone

Vinland provided on-site consulting to redesign a cordless telephone system / TV remote and to solve production line problems for some of the other products that they manufacture. Tested and modified their products to meet FCC and UL requirements during three separate trips to Singapore.



Drive By Broadcasting, Florida

transmitter

We designed several low power FM broadband transmitters for different markets, both US and international. Over 7,000 units have now been manufactured for them by Vinland.



Tankong, Taiwan

Tooling-1

Vinland provided on-site engineering for product design, tooling and production line support, and worked with the subcontractors in China. 3-D stereo-lithographic models were generated for tooling approval. Here are examples of the computer generated pictures of the components.

Tooling-2

Early Warning System Corporation, Florida

Early Warning System

Designed a marine data collection system for use on ships to evaluate in detail the engines' performance and to predict any potential problems. The system also calculated and predicted in advance when there would be service needed. A minimum of 30 parameters were monitored in the engine room.



Haier, China

Vending Machine

Vinland provided consulting and design service to Haier in China for the design and manufacturing of a vending machine that is currently being manufactured by them. Haier is a famous and very large Chinese company that produces a wide variety of products, from refrigerators to TVs.

For Haier's initial production run of 5,000 units, Vinland supplied the internal electronics. Afterwards, Haier's own production lines were up to speed to internally produce the required electronics.



Tarhunt, China

Tarhunt

Tarhunt manufactures several different money counters and bill validators that they sell worldwide. Vinland was contracted to help them design a version that is able to recognize US currency while counting at high speed.

If the counter is set to count for example $20 bills and there is a $5 bill mixed into the batch, it will stop on that $5 bill so it can be removed and then it will continue to count. It will also detect forged bills. That model is now successfully in production.



Information Radio Systems, Inc.,Florida

Information Radio System

We designed and manufacture their FM Broadcast-Band low power transmitter. It is a fully digital, advanced unit for real estate marketing, "drive through establishments" or any market that wants to advertise or provide information. The audience typically listen to the broadcast on their car radios.



Irwin Toy, Canada

SpectraColor

SpectraColor is a new opto-mechanical toy that was invented by John Maxim and licensed to Irwin Toy and introduced to the US retail market in the Fall of 2002.

Vinland provided both mechanical and optical engineering design and support. Further, approximately 30 prototypes were built by Vinland for both US and international toy fairs. Vinland also worked in China with the manufacturing company.



BlackStone, Florida

Point-of-Sale Point-of-Sale CAD

Designed a Point-of-Sale unit that will print customized phone cards on thick cards stock, not thin thermal paper. It connects to BlackStone's Touch-n-Buy computer via a USB interface. Vinland provided both the mechanical and electronic design, complete with software to operate the unit. The plastic injection molded housing was done together with Haier in China. Previously, Vinland has designed several similar units for BlackStone, using thermal vacuum forming to produce the housings, and manufactured thousands of the early versions.

Vinland also designed a large vending machine for BlackStone to sell multiple brands of cell phones. The cell phones were of the prepaid type so they could immediately be used. For more info Click Here.



ApexCCD, Florida

ApexCCD

Vinland designed, and currently produces, a Bio-Medical measurement system for treatment of people with severe speech disorders.
