We have expertise in LabVIEW, FPGA and Microcontroller software engineering, multifunction data ac-quisition, motor control, device and wireless communication, as well as image acquisition and pro-cessing.
We offer support in selecting hardware components or develop specialized hardware in cooperation with the electronics development team.
Types of activities
- LabVIEW software development (DAQ, Vision, Motion, RT, FPGA …)
- FPGA software development (VHDL)
- Programming of Embedded Systems (C/C++, Micropython, Python …)
- Support of selecting hardware components for measurement and automation tasks (Motor stages, Cameras, DAQ systems, Sensors ...)
- Creating LabVIEW device drivers for 3rd party hardware components (DLL, .NET, ActiveX ...)
- Device communication (Serial, Ethernet, CAN, GPIB, I2C, SPI ...)
- Wireless protocols (Bluetooth, WiFi …)
- Image acquisition & processing
- Mobile Apps (Android, iOS)
