Do you need custom software for your next embedded engineering project? CoroWare's Robotics and Automation team has a wide range of experience in the design, development, and testing of custom embedded and real-time systems. We have performed consulting services for aerospace, defense, and research companies, in projects ranging from testing systems based on already written specifications to providing a complete design and implementation of an autonomous control system.

Not sure where to get started or how to architect your system? We understand embedded and real-time systems bring their own set of constraints and problems. Our engineers are comfortable with the complete product life-cycle, including project management, requirements analysis and definition, architecture specification, design, development, testing, and product realization.

Do you have a specific operating system in mind? Or perhaps you aren't sure which to use? We have knowledge of various general-purpose operating systems such as Linux, Embedded Linux and Windows as well as embedded real-time systems such as Wind River's VxWorks. Having a team with such a wide background enables us to provide engineering skills directly tailored to your requirements. We can help you select an operating system or customize one to fit your needs.

No matter what programming language you choose, we can provide software engineering experience to match it. We have staff that are deeply familiar with C, C++, and Python as well as more esoteric languages such as PHP and low-level assembly.

Are you trying to integrate business systems with your embedded systems? We have team members with significant experience in Microsoft technologies such as .NET, WPF, and Sharepoint that we can provide to assist with this effort. We can bring together a multi-faceted team to make this integration a reality.

Many embedded systems need rich user interfaces. We've designed and created user interfaces by analyzing how systems are to be used and how users perceive operations.  Using this knowledge we custom-tailor the UI to fit your system, using tools anywhere from bare silicon (no software support) to a full GUI environment such as Windows Embedded or X11 under Linux.

If you are using audio or video in your project, we have expertise in the areas of video compression and decompression as well as audio processing such as echo cancellation.

If you are trying to reduce your project costs, we can also bring cost-effective near-shore resources to your projects. By using resources in South America we keep the contractors in a similar time-zone which significantly eases the communication efforts. We can also provide management of these resources for you in the case you wish to have a US-based project manager.

Our team also has experience in designing and building various custom robots. We can take your specifications and create a platform for you that best fits your needs. By mixing common off-the-shelf components with custom parts we can create a cost-effective solution that meets your requirements.
