STB
STBs and smart devices based on Amlogic chips and Android OS
The STBs we design for our customers on the latest Amlogic chips and Android OS are not just media players but feature-rich computers with the support of Over-The-Top video streaming services.
We design hybrid STBs based, smart audio and IoT devices, and smart TVs. As a result, our customers get new mass-produced products with Google TV services or in-demand OTT video by Youtube and Vimeo.
The Amlogic chips we use to design your devices
s905x (x2/x3/x4), s805x
IPTV/OTT and hybrid STBs, Android TV boxes, and media players
A113 L/X/D
Smart audio and IoT devices, such as smart speakers
T962X3
Smart TVs, interactive displays (IFPD), video walls and screens for the digital signage solutions

What we offer
We have developed a prototype of a set-top box, tested and modified its software supplied by Amlogic. You can use it as your a ready-made hardware and software solution for your STB product line.
Also, our engineering team can help you with other engineering tasks with Amlogic chips:
Â
1. Custom hardware design and fast prototyping on development kits
2. Development of application-level software, business logic, and UI/UX design:
- Custom Android launchers and services to access system/hardware resources
- Native and cross-platform Android apps
- Web- and Qt-based apps
- Third-party software integration: CAS/DRM libraries, DVB stack, etc.
- Player implementation: HLS, MPEG-DASH, Multicast
3. Development and porting of the Embedded Linux (Buildroot) & Android (AOSP) internals:
- SDK size and build time optimization
- Secure boot and boot time optimization
- Custom software update and recovery services
- Storage subsystem
- Drivers for peripheral devices
- Energy-saving algorithms and power control
- Remote controls integrations
- OPS device support
