Engineering
Black Labs has deep experience in the following engineering areas:
Internet of Things/Wireless Data
Black Labs was one of the earliest developers of data over cellular. We have implemented wireless systems using cellular data, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth including Low Energy Bluetooth, and several proprietary wireless systems.
Sensors
BLT has been involved with a wide range of sensors that measure position (GPS, accelerometer and magnetic compass) temperature, pressure, light level, sound and heart-rate in both medical and non-medical applications.
The DMK11A picks up sensor data from three different buses on modern power boats and sailboats and transmits it over Wi-Fi to smart phones or over the Internet to a central repository.
Battery Technology/Portable Devices
Black Labs has experience with rechargeable and non-rechargeable battery systems from the smallest coin cells to large vehicle battery packs.
The Compass Portable Disposable Pressure Monitor developed by Black Labs is powered by a single tiny coin cell and has a battery life of over 500 hours of operation.
Processors
Black Labs has experience with a large variety of processors including very low cost 8 and 16 bit processors to mid-range and high end 32 bit ARM Processors.
LCD/Touch Screens
Black Labs has extensive experience with embedded Graphic User Interface design and touch screen technology. This combination allows a Graphic User Interface to be quickly prototyped and continuously improved during the design cycle.
Medical Device FDA Submissions
Black Labs is very familiar with FDA requirements for medical devices.
Real-time Mapping and Web Based Data Visualization
Black Labs has extensive experience in real-time data visualization using Google Earth.
The Nexgen Casualty Assessment Training System developed by Black Labs can display real-time updates of position as well as posture, ammunition status, and biometric data for up to 500 players in real-time.
Android Development
Black Labs developed several applications for Android devices.
