Embedded systems development services
Our embedded systems development services cover each phase of the product's lifecycle and wide range of required technologies. The development is coordinated by our ISO 9001 certified and ISO 13485 compatible quality management system. Both software and electronics development is taken care by experienced professionals most with applicable university degrees.
A typical product developed by Nextfour could be a device with a touch screen, basic processor running Linux and controlling the device's peripherals (leds, motors, sensors etc.) with a separate microcontroller. Additionally also a controlling PC or server software is developed.

- Audio/video streaming and routing.
- Medical requirements, system interfaces and standards.
- Safety requirements and standards.
- Machine vision and pattern recognition.
Fast prototyping services
Fast and affordable prototypes are typically needed to test the markets, get early feedback from the end users or to demonstrate the product. Typically only the most important features are selected and ready-made electronics is used. With our Axis4 software and electronics platform we can focus immediately to your prioritized features, making it possible to have the prototype available even within weeks from the start.
