About Us…

We are a successful electronic and software design consultancy comprised of engineers of the highest calibre. Established in 1999, we have designed products for every environment from the home to the car, broadcast, industry, medical applications, aircraft and into space.

We have a broad skillset and can take an idea from concept to a finished product.
We can help guide our customers through the production process. We can undertake
whole projects or particular tasks.

We often work with small companies and entrepreneurs, and our customers include some of the most prestigious in the electronics industry. As engineers, it is ultimately the idea, the design, the product, the innovation and the invention that captures our imagination and drives us as individuals and as a company.

Should we have the opportunity to work with you, you would be dealing with a team who understand that your project and your ideas are important to you for your career and your business. That is why our customers keep returning to us; they trust us – we get it right.

DAB Radio
This was the first DAB radio to be launched by REVO. Designed to be retrofitted to cars the radio itself was removable and was a comfortable pocket size to be carried between cars. Although wiring harnesses were available to connect audio accessories to many cars they were problematic, often with […]
Infusion Pump
A complete electronic subsystem was developed for the control of a disposable infusion pump for applications such as analgesia. The device used an LCD screen and stored dose records in a non-volatile memory. Challenges included low power battery management, DC motor control, safety interlocks, fault mitigation, and cost sensitive design. […]
Solid State power control demonstrator for Passenger Airliners
Traditional power control systems were electromechanical and solid state solutions promised significant weight and size reductions. The client came to us having supervised a previous prototype layout which had failed due to EMC problems within the PCB. We were engaged to produce a new circuit layout to the client’s specification […]
Field Scanner
The field scanner was used for counterfeit protection. It produced a digital signature for real objects based on a laser scan of their surface texture. The brief was to take a prototype to a pre-production model. The unit was to be powered from USB,. It was to use DC motors […]
Video Laryngoscope
The Video Laryngoscope is a medical device. It is a hand-held endoscopic instrument used during laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Traditionally direct laryngoscopy involved using a device to move the tongue out of the way to allow the larynx to be viewed directly; sometimes incorporating a light source. The Video Laryngoscope […]
Electroencephalograph subsystem
Part of a larger more complex medical product the electroencephalograph subsystem used a 24 bit 8 channel ADC with integrated ECG/EEG front end. The applications support for this device was almost exclusively for electrocardiograph designs rather than the more sensitive electroencephalograph required for this development. The EEG demonstrator incorporated signal […]
Broadcast Archive Quality Assurance
This system was a bespoke development for a National Broadcaster. The Quality assurance of material that is being transferred from different types of media to digital storage for archival purposes is very time consuming and expensive. When problems are missed it can be years before the problem is discovered and […]
Fibre optic link for Outside Broadcast cameras
The electronics team have considerable experience from working in the broadcast television industry, designing equipment that has been used by the majority of the world’s national broadcasters including amongst others the BBC and ITV in the UK, PBS in the USA. For example they have worked on digital video effects […]
Military and Security Communications
This project was a communications system for military and security markets. The military, coastguard and security services around the world are making increasing use of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) equipment, where it is available and meets the operational and environmental requirements. In this case available equipment did not meet […]
VC-2 Core Set
In 2009, Westwood Rock announced that it was releasing the first of a series of video codec cores compliant with the BBC-developed Dirac Pro compression system [SMPTE ST 2042]. Westwood Rock’s VC-2 Dirac core set provides a rapid and cost effective method for deploying VC-2 Dirac compression. Find out more […]
CIPHRA
Ciphra makes selling IP just like selling semiconductor devices. Using Ciphra, IP can now be shipped in small quantities, broadening the target market for your IP, and allowing it to be instantiated in FPGAs during the development or prototyping stage at a low cost to your customer without compromising your […]
