SDS staff members have successfully developed software solutions for a broad range of computing systems,
from chip-level embedded controllers to global communication systems.
We have developed more than 50 applications with budgets in the range of $5K to $400K.
Because of this experience, SDS can provide complete solutions to broadly-scoped engineering projects.
Our team is comprised of veteran designers with an average of 10 years experience in
a variety of applied sciences, including:
-
Industrial chemistry
-
Communication systems
-
Robotics
-
Manufacturing automation and test
-
Medical ultrasound
-
Environmental control
-
Optical biometrics
-

In addition to having experience within many different engineering fields, our team also pays close attention
to the latest industry developments in order to maintain a capable skill set using specific tools.
Some of our areas of expertise include:
-
NI LabVIEW (including Real-Time, Compact Field Point) -- SDS specializes in complex and
large-scale LabVIEW applications. Our architecture designs are
scalable and use less processor time while providing higher performance.
-
PC and embedded C: ANSI C, CVI, PICC, Rabbit Dynamic C, TI DSP C
-
Control algorithms for motors, electronics, hydraulics, and fluidics.
Experience with the following vendor-specific tools: Galil SmartTerm, Kollmorgen, Elmo, Yaskawa.
-
Data acquisition with NI DAQmx and Traditional DAQ devices.
-
Instrument and IC control (GPIB, serial [RS-232, RS-485, SPI, I2C],
Ethernet, USB, IrDA, and Bluetooth)
-
Configuration management tools for all project stages (Perforce, CVS)
-
NI toolkits
for database communication, report generation, PDA
application development, motion control, PID development, vibration measurement,
and vision applications.
-
NI TestStand
-
Perl, HTML
-
Programming and OS experience with Linux and Windows
