From first power-on
to production-ready.
Crossware has delivered working embedded software across application processors, automotive MCUs and AI accelerators. Board bring-up, BSP development, GPU enablement and memory-optimised production builds — on the hardware your product actually ships on.
The engineering that makes hardware ship software.
Board Bring-Up
First power-on through a bootable, verified system. Crossware validates hardware, brings up peripherals and establishes a stable foundation for software development.
- Power sequencing and reset validation
- UART, SPI, I²C, USB, Ethernet bring-up
- Display and camera interface validation
- Debug infrastructure setup (JTAG, OpenOCD)
- Bootloader configuration (U-Boot, SPL)
BSP Development
Linux and RTOS board support packages built for the hardware, not ported from a generic reference. Device trees, kernel drivers and platform integration that reflects your actual board design.
- Linux device tree authoring and maintenance
- Kernel driver development and upstreaming
- Yocto / OpenEmbedded layer creation
- FreeRTOS and bare-metal BSP for MCUs
- Boot-time and suspend/resume optimisation
GPU Acceleration
Enabling hardware GPU compositing and OpenGL ES / Vulkan rendering for HMI and multimedia workloads. Crossware configures the full display pipeline — from DRM/KMS through Qt's platform plugin to the application layer.
- DRM / KMS display pipeline configuration
- OpenGL ES and Vulkan driver bring-up
- Qt EGLFS and Wayland platform plugin setup
- Hardware compositor integration (ivi-compositor)
- Benchmark-driven GPU performance validation
Memory & Build Optimisation
Reducing flash and RAM footprint to fit production memory budgets. Crossware profiles, strips and restructures builds to meet the constraints of resource-limited embedded platforms without compromising function.
- Yocto image size profiling and reduction
- Qt module selection and dead-code stripping
- Shared library and symbol optimisation
- RAM footprint reduction and heap analysis
- OTA-friendly partition and image design
