Capabilities

Engineering across the whole embedded stack.

From firmware architecture and embedded Linux to edge AI, connectivity and hardware design, BrainIOStream covers every layer of a connected product. Engage us for a single discipline or hand over the entire system — either way, you work with senior engineers and ship production-ready.

What we do

Deep expertise in every layer that matters.

Firmware Engineering

Production-grade bare-metal and RTOS implementations optimized for your hardware platform. Comprehensive BSP development, device drivers, protocol stacks, deterministic scheduling, and power management architectures aligned with certification requirements.

  • Zephyr / FreeRTOS
  • Secure boot & DFU
  • CI/CD automation

Embedded Linux

Custom Linux distributions using Yocto Project and Buildroot. Kernel driver development, device tree customization, bootloader configuration (u-boot), system integration, and userspace application development for complex embedded systems requiring full OS capabilities.

  • Yocto / Buildroot
  • Kernel drivers & DTS
  • System integration

Edge AI & Machine Learning

Edge AI implementation with TinyML, model optimization for resource-constrained devices, TensorFlow Lite and ONNX integration, custom AI accelerator support, and edge inference pipelines for intelligent embedded systems.

  • TinyML / Edge AI
  • Model optimization
  • Custom accelerators

IoT & Connectivity

Enterprise wireless connectivity solutions including BLE, Thread, LTE-M, and Wi-Fi stacks. Secure OTA infrastructure, device provisioning, edge analytics platforms, and smart home protocol integration (Matter, Thread).

  • Security & cryptography
  • OTA + fleet telemetry
  • Smart home / Matter

Software Development

Companion applications, manufacturing tools, diagnostic dashboards, and cloud services that enable comprehensive device testing, monitoring, and support capabilities.

  • Test automation
  • Diagnostics dashboards
  • Integration services

Embedded Consulting

Technical architecture reviews, system troubleshooting, team augmentation, and process optimization to accelerate development cycles while maintaining quality standards.

  • Architecture audits
  • Team enablement
  • Process setup

Hardware Development

Schematic design, PCB layout, rapid prototyping, and manufacturing coordination with validated supply chain partners. Comprehensive BOM management and test documentation.

  • HDI / rigid-flex PCB
  • DFM & validation
  • Supplier collaboration

Methodology

A four-layer approach that makes delivery predictable.

From silicon to production operations, every layer is documented and validated before it is handed on — so the systems we deliver are reliable in the field and supportable long after launch.

Device layer

Sensors, MCUs, SoCs, analog front-ends, and power budgets.

  • nRF5x, STM32, ESP32, i.MX RT, RP2040, Rockchip, Sigmastar, Linux-capable SoCs
  • Bare-metal, RTOS, embedded Linux, DSP, TinyML
  • Lab bring-up & automated testing

Connectivity & security

BLE, Thread, UWB, LTE-M, Wi-Fi, secure OTA.

  • Provisioning + fleet management
  • Crypto, key rotation, secure boot
  • Multi-radio coexistence tuning

Software & Edge AI

Tools, CI, dashboards, edge AI inference, and ML pipelines.

  • Factory software, service apps, APIs
  • Edge AI inference, TinyML, model optimization
  • Data pipelines (MQTT, Kafka, Influx)

Ops & delivery

Documentation, manufacturing, compliance.

  • DFM, BOM, supplier coordination
  • Test fixtures + ATE software
  • Release rituals & support playbooks

Engagement models

Two ways to work with us.

Technical Assessment

Custom engagement

Comprehensive evaluation of existing systems or product concepts. Technical analysis identifies risks, optimization opportunities, and delivers a strategic roadmap for firmware, hardware, and platform enhancements.

  • Architecture review & RF analysis
  • Edge computing & AI integration assessment
  • Strategic implementation roadmap
Request assessment

Product Development Program

Custom engagement

End-to-end product development partnership covering hardware design, firmware architecture, connectivity infrastructure, and platform integration. From engineering validation through pilot production and manufacturing handoff.

  • Product architecture & technical leadership
  • Hardware, firmware, and platform development
  • Validation, documentation, and manufacturing support
