History of Bayer DSP Solutions Print E-mail
This is a list of important milestones of the company’s history (selection only):

* 1995/96: Telecom algorithms and evaluation platforms for NEC digital signal processors
* 1997: Portable music player, for playback and recording sounds to multimedia cards (MMC) similar to today’s MP3 devices. The product was based on Analog Devices ADSP-218x and H8/300 micro-controllers from Hitachi.
* 1997/98: PCI Laser-marking controller based on SHARC (ADSP-21061)
* 1998: DSP software for various ISDN-PBXs using DSPs from NEC (µPD7701x) and Texas Instruments (TMS320VC5402)
* 1999: PCI DSP card for voice compression (G.728/G.729A) in VoIP applications based on ADSP-218x
* 2000: Speech codec for Traffic Information Manager on a DSP56000 Core
* 2001: Professional sound level meter based on TMS320VC33
* 2002: Message management and call-forwarding system for PBXs allowing software updates via the internet based on TMS320C54CST
* 2003: Voice/Fax encryption system for simple-to-use secure communication based on TMS320VC54xx
* 2003/04: Products for streaming MP3 sound via modem, ISDN and TV networks based on TMS320VC54xx
* 2004: Optical larynx diagnostics system for ENT (medical) applications based on TMS320VC33 and Xilinx FPGA
* 2005: Data acquisition front-end for a Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) on cargo ship based on a Blackfin processor
* 2006: Various industrial control and measurement systems based on TMS320C67xx and SHARC, with ARM7 and Xilinx FPGA
* 2007: IF processing unit for a 4-wire communication unit (OFDM), based on ADSP-21363 and ARM7

* 2008: Camera interface for a forgery-proof printing and verification system, based on Blackfin and Spartan3
* 2009: DTLE Radio Link, a intermediate range wireless communication solution based on ADSP-21369, Spartan3 and ARM7

* 2010: Controller Board for Medical Diagnosis and Therapy based on ADSP-21363 (SHARC) and Atmel ARM7

* 2011: Evaluation Board "Xynergy" based on STMicroelectronics STM32 (ARM Cortex-M3) and Spartan-6 FPGA

From past projects, we have isolated a number of telecom and speech algorithms, mainly ITU and ETSI standard which are now available as off-the-shelf products for integration into DSP and microcontroller based platforms, such as TMS320C5000 and TMS320C6000, Blackfin, ARM7, ARM9 etc.
