Embedded Linux Development

Upon project completion, the customer receives a fully functional software product, source codes, and detailed technical documentation. The customer will receive all the necessary instructions on how to use the product. We will also answer any questions and provide training if necessary.

The cession of intellectual property rights is legislated in our contracts. We also sign a non-disclosure agreement to protect any sensitive information. We will mention your project on our website and other platforms only with your permission.

Embedded Linux is a specific type of Linux OS used in embedded devices such as mobile phones, cameras, navigation devices, industrial equipment, etc. It’s quite different from the standard Linux OS in that it’s smaller, has less processing power, and doesn’t provide all the features that the Linux OS does. However, such operating systems are ideally suited for small devices with a limited range of functions.

A complex embedded system that needs to control a user interface and periphery requires embedded Linux. For some simpler systems, firmware that runs directly on a microcontroller and manages low-level tasks might suffice.

No, it won’t. Linux requires sufficient memory and processing power. Some embedded systems may not be able to provide enough RAM, ROM, and CPU performance to run Linux.
Our team can advise you on the memory space and processors compatible with Linux.

Yes, you can. Some distributions support a wide range of architectures. Take Debian, for example. We can customize distros like Debian for your particular device.

A distribution is a set of various programs and utilities. Typically, standard distributions are redundant, but they don’t contain all the necessary software to solve the required tasks. In addition, the memory for the OS image on embedded devices is rather limited. Therefore, we must customize the distribution by setting up the configuration files or by simply uninstalling packages in the already assembled distribution. The software and utilities that aren’t in the source distribution can be installed from packages or compiled from the source code.

To create a basic file program, we use the Debootstrap or Multistrap tools.

We’ve worked with Ubuntu, Debian, Buildroot, Fedora, OpenWrt, Linux Mint, and Yocto.

Yes, we do! That’s part of our embedded Linux development services. Our quality assurance department uses manual and automated testing methods to check the software we develop so engineers can fix issues before the product is released.

We pay great attention to the quality of our work. The customer receives fully functional software and a detailed user manual. After finishing the project, we provide a free warranty period, during which the team will eliminate any discovered bugs. During the post-warranty period, we can also provide advice on possible modernization and modification of your product.

The timing of a project largely depends on its specifics, complexity, scale, choice of components, and logistics. For example, a project audit can take 1-2 months, while AI-based software development usually lasts much longer. We always set realistic deadlines when preparing the spec and stick to the schedule at all project stages.

We develop projects for private enterprises and public organizations: small, medium, and large businesses, mining and manufacturing enterprises, startups, healthcare organizations, and enterprises engaged in other industries.
