Overview

At Signal 11, we have a wide range of expertise which can help you get your project off the ground, come in on schedule, or provide specialized software development services.



Cross-Platform Application Development

With platforms like Linux becoming more popular in recent years, it is becoming increasingly important to develop software in a way that is protected against the future. Whether the future holds more Windows, a shift to Linux, or Mac OS X, we find it important to not design software which relies too heavily on any one platform. Using portable application frameworks and libraries like Gtk+, Qt, Fox-Toolkit, Math3d, Open Scene Graph, and SQLite both helps to ensure your software will work in the future and make it more portable today.



Application Porting

One thing that's certain is that customer needs are always changing. As user requirements change, sometimes applications need to be ported from one platform to another. Whether it's a legacy UNIX system which needs to work on Windows, or a Windows application which needs to be moved to UNIX or Linux, Signal 11 can provide application porting services to get your product moved on schedule. Relying on cross-platform libraries and tools saves porting time and increases the robustness of the end product. Porting to a new platform doesn't mean you have to fully give up on your old one; your application can retain it's functionality on the existing platform and become cross-platform if desired.



Embedded Systems

Sometimes a PC-based solution isn't the answer. Whether you need a microcontroller-based solution, embedded Linux system, or a PC/104 stack, we've got you covered. We have expertise in 8051-based hardware, Microchip PIC controllers, embedded Linux boards, and a wide range of PC/104 hardware components.
