System-level and BSPs

A success of any product or solution is determined by the quality of its software both at application and system level. As the system level software directly interacts with underlying hardware and can leverage its specifics efficiently, it is very important to focus on optimising this software and make it work in any situation.

Almost any novel customised hardware platform requires developing, porting or fine tuning it system software. We at RTSoft GmbH have a deep knowledge and expertise in system-level software. Our competences span from expertise in almost all major instruction set architectures to various flavours of operating systems, peripherals and low-level protocols.

Our recent projects
Computer vision for people flow analysis in an underground metro station

One of our customers, a CCTV system integration company, requested us to develop a system to count people and measure people flow in underground metro. The purpose of the system is to assist platform load and passenger queues. The video surveillance system had been already deployed there and RTSoft should propose a hardware and software add-on by a very competitive price. 

RTSoft helps customers to build AI + IoT applications through integration of computer vision, data analysis and augmented reality.  Our experience in embedded platforms (Intel Movidius, Nvidia Jetson, Google Coral) and dedicated ML frameworks (Openvino, TensorRT, TFLite) made it possible to fulfill this project.

System features:

  • Visitors headcount

  • Crowd headcount

  • Queue detector

  • GDPRA compliance 


OTA update for PoS Terminals
RTSoft has been tasked by major IT provider of automation systems for Retail industry to develop a solution for remote update of software (operating system and/or application) for a family of devices PoS terminals.

The solution should allow an automatic rollback in case of update failures such as connectivity problem or unexpected power loss, implement versioning and secure delivery mechanisms, and be customizable for future integrations.

Additionally, the solution should include a cloud back-end service for device and software repository, content delivery and rollout management.

The target devices’s characteristics are:

  • SoC: Mediatek MT7688
  • Flash memory: 64MB
  • Operating system: Linux (OpenWRT)
Digital cockpit
RTSoft has been chosen by Motherson Innovation GmbH, an innovative automotive company, for prototyping “The Empathic Cockpit” – a digital cockpit of the  future, harmoniously absorbing the newest available technologies for reaching a unique level of comfort and real-time functionality.
The solution was presented at the CES 2018 Show in Las Vegas.
