“We are developing the unique PLUS software for the control of production processes in manufacturing. In 2007, while porting the PLUS client from SmallTalk to C#, we transferred part of the work to SaM Solutions, and kept the existing COBOL backend in-house. We were pleased with the reliability and high quality of their work, and SaM Solutions quickly...”
"Embedded software" is a set of code instructions for non-PC devices – either as part of a microcontroller or as part of another application that sits on top of the chip – to control specific functions of the embedded system / device. Unlike software applications which can be installed on a variety of computers and different operating systems, embedded solutions have fixed hardware requirements and capabilities and are created exclusively for the particular device that it runs on, with processing and memory restrictions tied directly to that device’s specifications.
From PCB design, Drivers, Board Support Packages to replatforming, Linux development, connectivity, and IoT.

OUR EMBEDDED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
FIRMWARE AND EMBEDDED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
We can help with bare metal code, bootloaders, OS kernel programming to get your hardware working according to the specified requirements. We provide deep expertise in working with different hardware and CPU architectures including ARM, X86, PowerPC, AVR, PIC
DRIVERS AND BOARD SUPPORT PACKAGES DEVELOPMENT
Our team can create a Board Support Package / OS Kernel package for your hardware to communicate with Embedded Linux, Android, Buildroot - based operating system or RTOS. We are also very experienced in driver development and optimization for connecting your hardware with peripheral modules and external devices.
REPLATFORMING
Our experienced team has accomplished multiple migrations between different platforms. Legacy technologies and unsuccessful products require a lot of investment and can make your product too complicated to maintain and improve. Our main services would include Migration to Linux, Android, iOS, helping with containerization and moving your solution to Yocto platform.
FIRMWARE AND EMBEDDED SOFTWARE TESTING
Software testing is a rigorous process that can be time consuming and requires certain technical skills and knowledge. Our team can help with manual and automated testing in both on-target or on-host modes. In both scenarios we use the most advanced testing techniques, tools, and frameworks like Vector Software, KlocWork, Parasoft DTP, Hitex to name a few.
DEVELOPMENT OF AN EMBEDDED SYSTEM FOR A LARGER SOFTWARE PROJECT
Thanks to our large, global teams of 800+ people, we are not just experienced firmware development professionals, but our company has an extensive background in “traditional” backend and frontend technologies, mobile apps, cloud services, as well as IoT. We can integrate your embedded system into existing enterprise IT landscape using APIs, or by building a mobile, desktop, web, or cloud application as a complete end-to-end development project.
APIs AND INTEGRATIONS
Experienced not only with Embedded Software, but also with traditional web and cloud-based apps, mobile, desktop, as well as IoT solutions. We can handle the end-to-end delivery and problem solving, and define the best scenario for your solution.
EMBEDDED UI DEVELOPMENT
We can help build a high-performing, scalable, and robust Graphical User Interface utilizing the most modern GUI technologies, including Linux-based frameworks like Qt, TotalCross, LVGL, uGFX, uGFX, GUIslice, GuiLite, or platform-independent Tcl/Tk, ReactJS Widgets, and web applications in AngularJS.
AUDIT, PERFORMANCE TUNING AND PROBLEM SOLVING
Should you have an issue with leaking memory, performance, or security of your product, our experts would gladly take the case and analyze your solution from hardware design, platform and low level code to the APIs and integrations.
HARDWARE DESIGN AND PROTOTYPING
Our team can help you at any stage of your project's development process. From reference board selection, breadboard prototyping, board bring up and PoC. We can create a testing infrastructure, help you pick the right Reference Board or Evaluation Kit with all the needed peripherals and connected infrastructure, build a prototype, create a board support package for the needed Operating System (OS), and create or customize drivers and apps.
Clients’ success stories
"My experience working with SaM Solutions has been amazing. They have been on top of every aspect of the partnership which has been seamless. They have structure, when we had little. They simply laid out a blueprint which allowed us to visually reach our timeframe goals at a pace we would have ever accomplished alone.SaM Solutions is very responsive with all team members. Every time we had a question or concern, they gave us clarity and would respond immediately. They sometimes went above and beyond our questions to give us additional information to better execute tasks and eventually build a better solution. Working with the team has been like having a partner versus having someone externally. This has made the whole experience more enjoyable for us. Because of this partnership, we are so much closer to having our vision becoming a reality.The “Startup Initiative” program was one of the most impressive things because of how much they care and worked with us to find a payment solution that works. It makes us feel like as they are just as invested as we are and continue to drive us forward. The flexibility and business professionalism on how they work with us is top-notch and I don’t think it’s a relationship that is easy to come by. I would 100% recommend SaM Solutions for any business looking for software development help."

What are the top 5 top technological trends in embedded systems?
The world is becoming increasingly reliant on embedded systems for everything from consumers operating their smart homes, to enterprises deploying IoT-enabled predictive maintenance solutions. The top five technological trends that will have an immediate, major impact on the embedded systems industry include the increased adoption of edge computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and IoT technologies, as well as the spread of 5G connectivity.
What are the requirements for the modern embedded system?
The modern embedded system has numerous quality characteristics that must be met in order to be efficiently and successfully deployed. Performance, security, usability, and reliability are some of the main priorities in the systems development process. From the technological standpoint - systems require a processing unit, a supply of power, memory, and I/O ports for communication to/between peripherals.
What is the future of embedded systems and what role do they play in today’s life?
As the industry continues to advance, its impact will be felt through nearly all industries - especially consumer electronics, transportation, telecom, manufacturing, and healthcare. With the world, and business, becoming more tech-centric and interconnected than ever, embedded systems will continue to play a major role in the adoption and innovation of emerging technologies.
What is the difference between firmware and embedded software?
Firmware is a specific type of software typically programmed on dedicated memory chips, existing in the space between hardware and software. Embedded software is programmed for a very specific purpose on an embedded device, within the context of a bigger electronic system or machine.
