Your hardware.
Made to run software.
New SoC. Tight timeline. No BSP. Crossware handles board bring-up, BSP development, GPU enablement and memory-optimised builds — so your team can focus on the application layer.
Platform problems that stop software projects.
Platform engineering delays are common, expensive and rarely visible until they block everything above them. Crossware is brought in to unblock them.
Porting an existing application to a new application processor or MCU — BSP, driver and platform layer migration without rewriting the application.
Evaluation board BSPs don't reflect production schematic changes. Crossware builds the BSP from the actual hardware design, not the eval board.
OpenGL ES or Vulkan driver bring-up, DRM/KMS configuration and Qt platform plugin setup to enable hardware rendering and hit frame rate targets.
Yocto image profiling, Qt module selection and build configuration to fit within the memory budget without losing required functionality.
Integrating an NPU driver, ML runtime and inference pipeline onto a platform that wasn't originally designed with AI in mind.
From power-on to a working system.
Crossware takes a new custom board from first power-on through hardware validation, peripheral bring-up, bootloader configuration and a stable Linux or RTOS boot. Every peripheral is verified against the schematic — nothing is assumed to work until it is confirmed to work.
A BSP that reflects your hardware, not the reference design.
Linux device trees and kernel drivers written for your board's actual peripherals, interfaces and memory map. Yocto layers built and maintained for your product — including custom machine configurations, recipe patches and reproducible builds. For MCU targets, FreeRTOS and bare-metal BSPs configured for the hardware bring-up already completed.
Hardware rendering for production HMI frame rates.
Enabling the GPU display pipeline on embedded Linux — from DRM/KMS driver configuration through OpenGL ES and Vulkan bringup to Qt EGLFS and Wayland compositor setup. Crossware benchmarks the full rendering pipeline and resolves performance bottlenecks before they become product-level problems.
Fit the production budget. Ship the full product.
When a Yocto image is too large for flash, or a Qt application exceeds RAM, Crossware profiles the build, identifies what is consuming space, and restructures the configuration to meet the target without removing required functionality. OTA-ready partition design and image layout are part of the output.
From schematic review to production-ready platform.
