In today’s fast-paced technical landscape, turning innovative concepts into tangible products requires expertise, precision, and strategic execution. Embedded engineering services play a pivotal role in this transformation, bridging the gap between concept and reality by leveraging advanced technologies and specialist knowledge. Our embedded software development experience brings your ideas to life, resulting in successful device projects.
Product conceptualisation and requirements gathering
Our expert embedded software engineers kickstart your product development process by collaborating with you to deeply understand your ideas and define your project requirements. Whether you’re developing a new IoT device, enhancing existing embedded systems, or solving a specific technical challenge, thorough requirements gathering ensures a clear understanding of project objectives, how to balance your constraints and deliver your device’s functionality. This phase demonstrates we understand your needs.
Establishing a balanced testing plan
With your requirements in hand, we write how we’ll demonstrate we’ve met your requirements. It’s critical to scope the work. Too much testing and we waste resources. Not enough testing and we will not meet your expectations. When we have agreed a test plan with you, we know you will be happy with the delivery.
Design and embedded software development phase
With your project’s requirements established, we begin the design and development phase. This stage involves translating your concepts into technical specifications, working with your various hardware components, and architecting software solutions specifically tailored to meet your device’s goals. This involves designing, coding, and testing software that runs on embedded systems. It includes developing firmware, writing device drivers, and implementing communication systems. Our skilled embedded software engineers use their hands-on understanding of microcontrollers, communication protocols, and real-time operating systems to craft robust, efficient, and scalable embedded systems.
Prototyping drives you from product concept to launch
Building a basic proof of concept can include:
- Conducting feasibility studies
- Building a basic product prototype
- Evaluating different design options
- Validate design concepts and ideas
- Testing product functionality
- Demonstrate the feasibility of embedded system designs
- Risk assessment
- Regulatory landscape assessment
- Identify potential improvements early in the development process
Rigorous product testing is our strength
Rigorous testing methodologies, including unit testing, integration testing, and system verification, ensure the reliability, performance, and compatibility of embedded systems across various scenarios and environments. Firmware testing is often one of the more challenging aspects of device development. It’s also one of the strongest facets of Bermondsey Electronics embedded engineering services and a key differentiator of ours. In addition to our extensive firmware testing equipment repertoire, we’ve developed our own firmware testing software which enables testing to be performed at scale and in a cheap and repeatable manner.
Integration and product optimisation
As your development project progresses, our embedded engineering services focus on integrating hardware and software components seamlessly. We integrate various hardware and software components to create cohesive embedded systems. We may be integrating sensors, actuators, communication modules, and user interfaces into a single system. This can involve optimising firmware code, fine-tuning system parameters, and ensuring compatibility with external devices and interfaces.
Embedded engineering services maximise your product’s performance
Our embedded firmware engineers may need to optimise your product’s performance, power efficiency, and reliability of embedded systems. This could involve optimising code, balancing power consumption with device speed and performance, and enhancing real-time responsiveness. Attention to detail and skill during your project’s integration phase is paramount to achieve optimal performance and user experience in your final product.
Implementing embedded software security measures
Our embedded engineering service prioritises security and compliance throughout your product development lifecycle. With the increasing importance of cybersecurity in embedded systems, device security measures can include assessing security risks and conducting security audits. Measures such as implementing encryption algorithms, authentication mechanisms, and secure firmware updates protect your embedded systems from cyber threats and ensure data integrity and confidentiality.
Product deployment and support
When your product development project is complete, our embedded engineering services assist can help you deploy your final product into the market. This may involve deployment assistance and user training. Ongoing support and maintenance services, including software updates and technical assistance, ensure the longevity and reliability of embedded systems post-deployment.
