Welcome to the website of Embedded Systems Group which is a sub division of the Digital Techniques Research Group of De Nayer. Current projects are:
Currently active projects
emcam: Multifunctional Embedded Digital Camera-system ('03-'05)
The purpose of this project is to develop a flexible embedded multifunctional digital camera system / prototype
emdem: Embedded System Design Methodology ('04-'06)
The purpose of this project is to study and document a new embedded system design methodology used by Philips Leuven. To evaluate and test the design methodology, several cases will be implemented.
emtas: Technological Advice Service For Reconfigurable Embedded Systems ('04-'06)
The 'embedded systems' technological advisory service provides the knowledge of different research institutes to help companies with
embedded system initiatives.
The main partners are:
- Hogeschool voor Wetenschap & Kunst, campus De Nayer
- KAHO Sint Lieven
- DSP Valley - IMEC
Inactive Projects
empro: Embedded System design based on soft- and hardcore FPGA's ('02-'04)
The purpose of this project is investigate the advantages and difficulties of using softcore and hardcore FPGA's when building embedded systems. A softcore FPGA is a FPGA programmed with a softcore processor. A hardcore FPGA can be defined as a FPGA with a 'hard' (full custom) processor on its die.
All projects are conducted in close cooperation with companies so that there is a good correlation between practice and science.
