Real-time and Embedded Systems

We are currently working on implementing Image Processing algorithms on a state-of the-art SOC for various real-time applications. We have extensive embedded systems programming experience which includes writing microcode, multitasking kernels, device drivers, and firmware. All software is white- and black-box tested and our engineers work closely with hardware/system designers to ensure rapid board bring-up and verification. Our prior experience includes:

• Microcode
  • Mpeg Processors
• Firmware
  • MPEG based applications such as near video-on-demand, digital signage, hospitality on-demand video, in-air satellite television, ad insertion, and pre-show digital cinema
  • Cable Modems
  • Call processing (tone detection/generation, speech compression, phone interfacing etc.)

• Device Drivers
  • Mpeg Decoders
  • Storage Virtualization Engines
  • Mobile Phone Peripherals
• Multitasking Kernels
  • Multi-channel video decoders
  • Multi-channel voice recognition

Image/Audio Processing

Our Image Processing group is currently working on several algorithms in the field of visual computing and visual speech recognition for the following projects:

• Real-time 3D visual computing – Research and implementation of algorithms in areas that include image compression, object recognition, object tracking, optical error correction, lip reading, 3D vision, image reconstruction, human motion analysis and synthesis, and face recognition
• Automatic annotation of and key event detection in sports video and its applications – Research and implementation of algorithms in video segmentation, statistical analysis, audio analysis and processing, speech recognition, MPEG-7, databases, and virtual insertion of graphics
