We've helped our customers deliver millions of units of software-based products. We strive to exceed their expectations. We provide expertise in a wide range of technologies and build vertical slices of production software using a disciplined agile process developed through years of delivering products.

Real Time Operating Systems

With a background in providing reference software and BSPs to semiconductor companies, our developers have deep expertise in embedded systems and firmware for hardware devices. Our embedded skills include C/C++, Python, DSP, OTA updates, IPC, multi-threading, performance optimzation, and communications. We've worked with ARM, x86, MIPS and all popular SoCs. We've shipped many products using Embedded Linux, but we're also experts with any RTOS or even a microcontroller without an OS.

Connecting Devices To The Cloud

Cygnus has shipped IoT products with some of the best-known names in the industry. We've worked with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee and Thread, and we can help your company choose the best solution for your product. We've worked with all of the major IoT Cloud platforms, which allows us to quickly integrate your product to the cloud. We've also designed industrial IoT systems (IIOT) for both on-premise and remote use cases. If you're looking for help with new standards like IoTivity, IFTTT, OCF or dotdot, we can guide you.
