Digital Video and STB Design and Integration Services
Wind River Professional Services has an extensive track record in digital video design, development, and integration services. Our legacy began as Doctor Design®, acquired by Wind River in 1999, and continues to expand. Today, our track record includes more than 50 set-top box (STB) product designs for some of the leading STB manufacturers. Our broad experience and commercial-grade project management ensure the high level of quality you require, while our strong relationships with market leaders both enhance the solutions we deliver and speed your time-to-revenue.
Our clients often choose to co-source development activities that don't add differentiating value or that they don't consider core competencies. By moving these activities to a partner like Wind River Professional Services, you can optimize your resources by focusing them on product value-adds and differentiation.
Wind River's digital video résumé includes:
- Satellite, cable, IP set-top boxes (STBs)
- Digital TV
- Personal video recorders (PVRs)
- Home media appliances
- Head-end equipment
