Safety & Security
We focus on Safety- and Security-critical applications in Aerospace, Railway, Automotive, Industrial Automation and Medical. With PikeOS we provide a platform that is ready for various certification. Devices will be safe and protected against malicious attacks.
Certification & Standards
We are certification experts and have designed PikeOS for mission-critical projects with highest certification requirements according to various Safety and Security standards like DO-178C, ECSS, EN 50128 / EN 50657, ISO 26262, IEC 61508, or Common Criteria.
Embedded Virtualization
We provide embedded virtualization supporting time and space separation, so that engineers can combine multiple applications on one hardware platform in a safe and secure environment. Via mixed-criticality in our certified hypervisor customers can choose between different domain-specific guest OSs, like POSIX™, AUTOSAR or ARINC 653. Customers benefit from less space, weight, and power which leads to reduced costs, time and energy consumption.
Multi-Core Performance
We support different hardware architectures including multi-core processors and, by means of virtualization, make optimal use of the hardware resources. Applications benefit from better performance and stability of mixed-criticality applications. The virtualization concept fully supports multi-core architectures, providing a variety of execution models from SMP to AMP. We have optimized products to guarantee the best multi-core performance.
Services & Support
We are specialized in providing reliable services and tools for intelligent products and can even offer support over a life time of more than 25 years. We have a wide partner ecosystem and have a close cooperation with leading technology companies worldwide.
Real-Time & Linux
We are experts in real-time based applications and provide PikeOS, our hard RTOS with hypervisor functionality. We also offer ELinOS, for Linux-based industrial grade applications. Customers worldwide profit from our deep knowledge in embedded system software.
ITAR free
Our products are not subject to U.S. ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations), reducing export restrictions and simplifying global deployment.
