We developed a digital set-top box for the receipt and decoding of terrestrial digital broadcasting signals in the DVB-T format and for the following reproduction of the decoded flow to the TV receiver. The digital set-top box is aimed at the lower price brackets and shall be performed at the minimal form factor. The software was implemented on the basis of Linux OS. |

|
We developed an video registration device designed for digitizing, storing and retrieving on request audio and video signals received from 4 sources of analog audio/video signals. |
|
|
|
We developed a device capable of controlling home multimedia system (HDTV, home theatre, tuner, video recorder, etc) with HDMI-interface via Ethernet by using a PC and/or other devices connected to Ethernet. The device can be quickly and easily configured and integrated into the smart home control system. |

We developed topology and PCB layout design for graphical processor unit. Promwad engineers have performed preliminary modeling of high-speed signals by IBIS-models to define the way of signals termination. After modeling PCB designers have defined optimal solution for signals termination. PCB layout was performed according to trace lengths and skews. Special attention was paid to power supply and ground layout. |

We have created a device designed to bring the user back to the previously marked point in a coordinate system. It show the movement and indicate the distance to a specified point. The device is very silmle, user-friendly and do not require any additional settings before the start of operation. The product’s target audience includes both young and retired people, outdoor recreation enthusiasts — people who like travelling and hiking and need only a device that would bring them back to a starting point (for example, to their camp location). |

PCB for universal audio streaming player was designed on the basis of ADSP-BF537 processor in BGA208 case from Analog Devices, Inc. Specialists of Promwad Innovation Company developers took into account peculiarities of position and layout of controlling WiFi and RF interfaces, including electromagnetic compatibility of RF-part with other components |
|
|
|
Our specialists developed a multi-purpose navigation board, capable of organizing longitudinal motion, dynamic positioning and automatic mooring of vessels. Also we performed stand and field testing by using a complex of mathematical modeling and simulating automatic and semiautomatic vessel control systems. |

A board support package (BSP) was designed for simplifying man-machine interaction. The device supports multiple European and Asian languages and recognition of “gestures” (special sliding finger moves on a display screen or close to it). The device executes parameters check and controls display modes and lightning of car’s auxiliary equipment. |

Promwad team has developed a prototype of a multimedia Smart Home control panel with touch screen display. The control panel is based on SoC Cirrus Logic EP9307 and contains Ethernet 10/100Mbit, USB host, Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) interfaces. The board support package (BSP) was developed on the basis of the initial loader U-Boot and the Poky Linux operating system for ARM processor. The drivers for the power management and the driver for the presence sensor were developed too. The Power-over-Ethernet technology for circuit power supply is implemented to the board. |
