Drivers represent the basic need level of board and chip manufacturers,
SW developers and end users - whether it's not having a driver or having
one that needs work, Pyramid Peak Design can help.
We have experience in the following APIs:
OpenGL - The standard Cross platform API. Direct3D - Microsoft's API for real time 3D enterainment graphics. Universal Graphics Library/WindML - Wind River's Graphics Library for embedded systems. XFree86 - X11 Server for the Linux operating system.
Pyramid Peak Design offers experise in the following services when it comes
to driver development:
Performance Tuning
Whether it's taking measurements, tuning code or developing benchmarks to
identify strengths and weaknesses of a given product, Pyramid Peak Design has
"been there, done that" and can pass on it's experience to you.
General Debugging
Our years of experience has taught us to how to develop code and trace libraries
to help debug application to driver interfaces.
Hardare and API Qualification testing
Most companies put their less experienced staff as part of the testing
teams. While this may appear to be cost effective, if your testers don't
have the knowledge or tools to test the boundaries of your product, costly
problems can be found once the product is in the field. Let us help design
a testing suite to better test your product. We can also verify that your
product meets WHQL or ARB conformance.
API extensions
Standardized APIs are falling behind the latest innovations in graphics.
Let Pyramid Peak Design develop the custom extension for the standard API
of your choice or develop a custom graphics library to allow developers
to access your hardware's advanced functions while the APIs catch up.
