Skills and Capabilities
Our design engineers can assist with system level, schematic, PCB and FPGA/VHDL design. We have experts in developing software under Windows, Linux, QNX and macOS. Long relationships with trusted partners mean that we can quickly turn around assembly, testing, prototyping and manufacturing.

Custom Camera Solutions
Our BlueBird video adapters and our range of Harrier cameras and camera interface boards are versatile products that offer users plenty of flexibility. However, we can tailor and optimize our products specifically to meet the needs of your application. We also offer full custom video converter solutions by modifying existing designs or providing full custom converter boards, including housing when required.

Custom Embedded Systems
Our embedded system products are usually designed into an OEM system and include industrial computers for specific applications, optical readers and sensor systems. We can support you through your entire project from planning and designing to prototyping and manufacturing. Our team will work with you to find the optimal solution depending on your budget, timeframe and volume requirements.

Custom Frame Grabbers
We’ve customized our boards for numerous applications to meet additional functional or system requirements, including software and firmware modification for applications with additional requirements, and hardware feature changes such as custom connectivity, custom I/Os and CAN bus. We can also design boards for embedded form-factors including cPCI Serial, PCIe/104 and XMC.
