System Software
The Product Engineering team at Mistral has an in-depth knowledge of low-level system software, a thorough understanding of hardware, and deep familiarity of the OS internals. Together, these three provide the team with the requisite expertise in firmware BSP and device driver development. The team can analyse custom hardware and create the software package required to optimize both the development process and the behaviour of the customer’s deployed device.
The embedded software team at Mistral has vast expertise in BSP development and device driver development for various I/O devices, porting of operating systems for embedded devices and in integration of several peripherals such as audio, video, storage, connectivity, buses, wireless, UI and others.
Our system software has powered the complex embedded systems of 100+ product designs that have been commercially deployed across a broad spectrum of commercial, industrial, aerospace and defense domains.
