Ask HN: Is there a development team that only takes the most difficult projects?

8 points by aadilrazvi 12 years ago · 6 comments · 1 min read


I have clients come to me with the craziest ideas for projects that require complex hardware setups...my company doesn't have the expertise to take on these kinds of projects. I was wondering if there are any teams that specifically do these kinds of very difficult projects? If this is not following HN guidelines I'm sorry, I'll take this down.

I worked at a consulting firm previously which handled mostly these kind of projects. Their hourly rates were a notch higher than other local firms and so usually dealt with projects with needed delivery guarantee or projects which can't be just taken up by a run-of-the-mill consulting firm. What kind of crazy projects do you get?

    Currently searching for a team to take on an augmented reality project giving realtime visualizations on a transparent screen for a driver on a racetrack...anyone can email me for details if this is something anyone would be interested in

      You mean a head up display (HUD) for a racecar ?

      I'd be interested in talking with you about the project, it might be something I could partner with you on.

      You can find my contact info in the website linked from my HN profile, send me an email if you're interested.

      Is <your_username>@squaremelons.com the right address to write to?
