Embedded Software

Although embedded software and classic application software are both used for digital control and automation, there are some fundamental differences.

On the one hand, the two technologies differ in their functionality and environment. Embedded software is specially developed for specific hardware systems and integrates directly into a device or machine. It is optimized for high efficiency and real-time capability and often runs on microcontrollers, SoC (System on a Chip) or special processors with limited resources.

Application software, on the other hand, runs on general operating systems such as Windows, Linux or macOS and offers a wide range of functions for different user requirements. It is more flexible and can be developed for different platforms.

There are also some differences in terms of performance, security and customizability.

Whether embedded software or a classic application solution – the architecture usually results from the technical conditions. If the hardware is specialized, an embedded solution is usually required. If the systems are generic, standard software can be used.

Do you already have in-house development teams or an existing tech stack? No problem, our software engineers are experts in thinking their way into existing solutions, adapting them, improving them or developing them from scratch – whether in classic embedded tech stacks such as Qt and C++, in modern technologies such as RUST or in the web stack as HTML/CSS/JS.

We support you right from the start: Experts from our group of companies are at your side right from the selection of suitable hardware. In this way, we ensure that hardware and software work together perfectly – whether bare metal, Linux-based embedded system or RTOS.

We not only develop the right solution, but also take care of embedded security, interface development and system optimization. Everything from a single source.
