Sigma Technology Strengthens its Innovation Power Through the R&D Forum
Sigma Technology Embedded Solutions is strengthening its innovation capability through its R&D Forum — a structured, hands-on development environment where engineers turn emerging technologies and real customer needs into tested, product-ready solutions.
The R&D Forum brings together cross-functional teams across mechanics, mechatronics, electronics, embedded software, and digital applications. It enables Sigma Technology to explore new ideas, build prototypes, validate concepts, and mature technologies. For customers, the forum translates into fewer unknowns, reduced technical risks, and a smoother path from idea to implementation.
Sigma Technology Embedded Solutions, part of the Sigma Technology Group, is an engineering consulting company specializing in embedded systems, electrification, and software development. With fully equipped electronics and mechatronics labs, including a high-voltage testing environment, the company supports customers throughout the complete product lifecycle.
The R&D Forum’s project portfolio is continuously shaped by market signals, technology shifts, and close cooperation with customers. Collaboration with universities and academic partners is an integral part of the setup, enabling internships and thesis projects linked to real development projects.
“At our R&D Forum, we develop both technology and competence for the future,” says Mattias Gudasic, CTO at Sigma Technology Embedded Solutions. “What makes R&D Forum unique is that we gather experts across different roles and locations within Sigma, together with students and academia. This diversity of competences, together with our own innovation project backlog, is a powerful driver to shape future technology and products.”
From Steer‑by‑Wire to Smart Wellness
One of the R&D Forum’s flagship initiatives is the Steer-by-Wire simulator — an advanced Driver-In-The-Loop environment recreating a complete vehicle control experience, from handwheel actuators and control algorithms to diagnostics, communication, and real-time analysis support.
Beyond SteerbyWire, ongoing projects span smart lighting, traffic insights, battery optimization, Smart Home control, and other domains driving the digital transformation of mobility and electrification.
Making full use of engineering talent
A key ambition of the R&D Forum is to ensure that engineering competence is continuously developed and actively used. When consultants are between customer assignments, the forum provides meaningful, market-driven projects that strengthen skills while contributing to future customer value.
“The R&D Forum is not just a development environment — it is a launchpad for future-ready solutions grounded in real customer challenges and market trajectories. As Sigma Technology continues expanding the forum with new projects and partnerships, it reinforces its role as a key driver of innovation in electrification, mobility, and digital technology,” says Mikael Karlsson, President at Sigma Technology Embedded Solutions.
