ELECTRONIC DESIGN
Speed and precision with a modular platform
Take advantage of our broad project experience. Having the right technology partner such as hema is an important step on the road to a successful product. Our team of experienced developers supports clients from the concept stage right through to series release.
- System design and architecture
- Board & system design
- FPGA & microcontroller design
- Software development
- Embedded software development
We attach special importance to a holistic approach to your task. The concept and the path towards a solution ensure that the desired results are achieved. Bottlenecks are avoided and the system is balanced to deliver both performance and efficiency. We simply make it work.
How you can collaborate with hema
We are happy to take on all aspects of product development, from the concept phase right through to production. The decisive factor is what contribution you would like us to make:
- Design & architecture consultation
- Product development & system design
- Reengineering & retrofitting
You decide for each project how to make best use of your available time and funds. We complement your project accordingly with our competences and the services of our trustworthy long-standing partners, along with our own effective project management of course. A scrum, agile or individual approach according to your needs - we'll adapt to it.
Your success is our top priority. That's what we're there for.
That is what we have worked on for a long time:
Visual intelligence - the development of embedded vision systems
Making systems and devices intelligent so that they are better at performing your tasks is what drives us. Whether it's quality assurance in industry or security on train platforms or at national borders, these are all tasks that involve an increasing demand for performance in detection. Images must be acquired, processed and transferred. An operator, or these days also a system possessing artificial intelligence, is supplied with data in line with your requirements. The desired actions and applications for further video processing are then based on this.
- Video encoding & streaming: h.264, h.265
- Video technology: analog & digital
- Low latency video transmission
- Video multiplexing: 2K, 4K, 8K
- Graphic overlay in real time
- DVR digital video recording
- EVB intelligent video management unit
- Embedded image acquisition & processing
- Interfaces: GigE Vision, SDI, HDMI, DP, MIPI, CameraLink, PCI Express, TSN, USB
- CMOS sensor technologie with HDR up to 170 dB dynamic range
- Sensor fusion: infrared, stereo, daylight, night vision
- Robust system design for mobile applications
- Long-term availability of the systems & obsolescence management
Technologies
As the demands placed on the systems increase, so do their performance requirements and complexity. Using state-of-the-art technologies and development tools, our clients and us drive the capabilities of the systems to even greater heights. In order for this to work, we are involved on a daily basis with developments in the technology market, and skillfully implement them.
However, as much as we love progress, it should not be forgotten that an effective combination of existing and new technologies, together with the creative ideas of development engineers often delivers the more economically appropriate solution.
With leading technologies plus common sense, we achieve our goals TOGETHER.
Analog & digital circuit technology:
- FPGA, ARM, DSP & microcontrollers
- Interfaces for data, video & communication
- Sensors for image & data acquisition
- Power supply
Platform and system design
Designing electronic systems for our clients is our passion. We approach the job with both enthusiasm and discipline. Hand in hand, designs and prototypes emerge step by step from ideas. Once tested and optimized, these are soon followed by the first series devices. To experience how our clients proudly present their solutions and to see the smiles on their faces is the moment that makes it all worthwhile for us.
The results are:
- FPGA-based embedded vision platforms
- Video processing units
- Video cameras
- Individual modules
- Devices & systems
