Our systems engineering team can help you test new product or service concepts, validate the benefits of new technologies, or simply identify and mitigate the business and technical risks of your project.

Bring reliable solutions to market faster, with a more predictable cost and development schedule.

Since our inception, we have been constantly challenged to jump in on large software development projects built by hundreds of software developers. Large and complex development projects require well-defined systems and sub-systems to cover all possible use cases. Our complementary pragmatic approach effectively balances the efforts spent on the system architecture definition and the subsequent phases of a project.

Some of our specialties in advanced engineering include Ethernet and networking applications, computer vision applications, SoC & CPU performance optimization, Digital Signal Processing (DSP) as well as mixed-signal and wireless technologies.

We specialize in evaluating and selecting complex technologies such as:

• Application processors
• System on a Chip (SoC)
• Power solutions
• Wireless transceivers
• Operating systems / software frameworks
• Intellectual property (IP)

Hardware and electronic engineering for advanced high-speed technologies.
