ElectronicsAndSoftware

We are an Engineering company involved in the design, development and production of electronic and software products.

Our primary expertise is with Instrumentation, measuring things, control, embedded systems, robotics, real-time, DSP and Internet of Things (IoT) systems. However, our knowledge and abilities are extensive. We perform innovative Research and Development tightly integrating electronics with software.

We are developing a range of innovative instrumentation products the first release being the BMeasure-125i.

We also provide design and development expertise where we can work with you to turn your unique customer requirements into well designed innovative solutions.

We are based near Bath and Bristol. Just contact us to discuss your needs and see if we can work with you to develop a new solution or product.

Products

BMeasure-125iOur new BMeasure-125i unit is a flexible and powerful system for data capture, data logging and control in the laboratory, industrial and remote sensing arenas. It is based around an 8 channel, fully differential, synchronous sampling, 24 bit ADC that can sample at speeds up to 125 ksps. Multiple units can be connected together for more synchronously sampled channels. More information ...

Innovative Solutions

We are especially experienced in developing innovative and practical systems for customers. Our research and development abilities along with our extensive knowledge of electronics hardware and software allow us to design systems, large or small and provide unique and often simple solutions. Unusually our engineers are experienced in both hardware and software design and are adept at hardware/software integration which allows us to provide efficient design solutions.

Our work majors in the field of instrumentation, sensors, data capture and processing, control, robotics, low-power interface and scientific systems. Routinely we use digital signal processing (DSP), real-time and parallel processing techniques. Systems are often based on ARM Cortex low-power micro-processors or PIC/Atmel processors through ARM Linux systems to real-time multi-FPGA systems capable of processing 18 billion samples per second.

We can design digital and analogue electronic circuits developing to prototype or small to medium production runs. With our partners we can design mechanical assemblies and move to higher level production runs. The local York EMC test house provides us the ability for us to take a system design through the range of CE standards testing

The companies we work with range from small two man companies to larger oil and gas engineering companies, science companies and research organisations.

Whatever your system, instrumentation, software or electronics requirements are please don't hesitate to contact us for an informal chat or visit. We can often provide new insights and ideas for your systems or products.

For more information please have a look at our development services and examples pages although these only contain a fraction of the projects we are and have been involved in.

We can also help and partner with you on InnovateUK funded projects. Please don't hesitate to contact us.

Software

We have experienced bespoke software developers and work in many varied areas. Embedded systems and real-time systems are a speciality especially when digital signal processing is involved. However we have also been involved with developing massive data storage systems with MySQL databases and PHP based WEB front ends.

IoT software is also a speciality, we often include mini WEB servers into systems for control and data management over Wifi, Ethernet or other interfaces.

We are well versed in all aspects of the Linux OS from writing applications to writing Linux kernel device drivers and porting Linux to new hardware platforms.
