Software Integration

Ultimately, we view it as our job is to provide a platform that enables our customers to easily port their application and interface with the hardware seamlessly, greatly reducing the system debug time. We would like to share with you some examples of the breadth of services we offer for our customers’ platforms.

Our Software design service include:

• Platform Development Support
• Application Development Support
• Application Porting

See below for more details.

Linux can be visualised as two layers;
Bottom layer = kernel (back end processing, resource management, driver initialisation, hardware interfacing)
Top layer = user space (houses all the applications)

Our experienced engineers work primarily on optimising the kernel of your Yocto build and can help with:

• Integration of the LCD and CTP, setting the resolution and timings, porting and (touch) drivers
• Enabling communication buses (RS232, RS485, SPI, CAN, I2C)
• Interfacing sensors and GPIOs.

In addition to Linux, we can also support embedded RTOS such as QNX, FreeRTOS and Threadx or bare metal development on microcontroller platforms.

• Customised i.MX8M Mini SOM based hardware platform
  • Availability with our hardware (Linux available with both ARM and X86 range)
    
• Custom Yocto Linux BSP with custom drivers
  • BSP, Driver Development
  • Library integration
• Flexible application back-end
• Crank Storyboard front-end

• Intel Apollo Lake SBC hardware platform
  • Availability with our hardware (both Windows and Linux OS)
    
• Win10 integration with custom features
  • BSP, Driver Configuration
  • Win10 Activation Image
  • QT libraries Porting
    
• Customer App and OS integrated in one iso image

• Producing Board Support Package for iMX6 family
  
• Porting to customer final HW platform
  
• Developing additional custom device drivers

QNX has the advantage of regulatory compliance for life-critical applications and provides all the kernels in one place making certification easier and quicker.
