FAQ
Ideally, yes. Having physical access to a device significantly speeds up development and gives us a wider range of debugging and testing tools.
Without access to the device, we can write code, but we won’t be able to run or test it properly. In rare cases, if the hardware is generic enough, we might be able to use an emulator. We have experience in developing embedded software using a virtual copy of a device and adjusting it after a physical version of the device is completed.Yes, we have helped many organizations in many industries, including healthcare and automotive, generate software bills of materials (SBOMs). Our team can assist you with every aspect of the process, including:
- Generating SBOMs using proven tools
- Conducting manual source code reviews
- Integrating SBOM management into your CI/CD pipeline
- Prioritizing security issues of critical components
- Complying with industry standards
Rust is a strong choice for embedded development, especially when memory safety is critical. It gives you fast performance with built-in protection against buffer overflows, data races, and other common embedded bugs that can be expensive to fix later.
However, the embedded Rust ecosystem is still maturing. While some RTOS platforms like FreeRTOS now support Rust, these integrations can be less stable than non-Rust alternatives and have fewer third-party libraries and community resources. For time-critical projects, C++ might still be the safer bet.Several key trends are reshaping embedded development right now:
- Edge computing is moving processing closer to data sources
- AI and machine learning are being integrated directly into embedded devices
- 5G connectivity is opening up new possibilities for ultra-low latency applications and massive IoT deployments
- Security-by-design development is protecting ever-expanding attack surfaces
We ensure scalability and reliability through:
- Using proven platforms like AWS IoT, Azure IoT, and Google Cloud IoT Core for handling massive device deployments
- Designing robust architectures with scalable frameworks that grow with your business
- Conducting rigorous testing by validating our code against FCC, IEC/EN, and other standards to ensure real-world reliability
