The idea was simple: ultra low power, low cost LED backlight running on small coin cell battery for a long time. Our job was to develop electronic assembly to our customer specifications and target cost.
Skills employed:
- Low cost microcontroller based design
- Assembly programming
- Adaptive PWM LED control
- EMC compliance engineering
Video camera zoom controller family

We developed a family of video camera zoom controllers for Gruppo Manfrotto – the world’s leading camera support company. The company had no experience in electronics, but they wanted to complement their product line with unique and innovative solutions. Our job was to develop products from specifications through electronic and firmware development, compliance engineering and finally production. Their job was to develop mechanical housing. We worked successfully together on putting all things together. The family ranges from high end LCD enabled controllers, down to few EUR consumer products.
Skills employed:
- Digital control with Local Area Network Control Protocol
- Protocol stack development
- 8-bit Microcontroller design
- 32-bit Microcontroller design
- RTOS operating system
- Analog design
- Mechanical design & collision analysis
- LCD displays
- EMC compliance engineering
Firewire AV/C protocol control system

The aim of this project was to test usability of IEEE 1386 AV/C protocol for video cameras control. Our job was to develop electronics, firmware and to build a prototype board.
Skills employed:
- eCos RTOS operating system
- Driver development
- 32-bit Microcontroller design
- IEEE-1386 AV/C protocol stack development
- EBI connectivity
