EDI is the highest-ranking Latvian scientific institute in the field of engineering and technologies. EDI specializes in the development of smart embedded cooperative systems with the sole purpose of creating knowledge and innovative technologies for new products with high added value. EDI has an impressive record of participation in international European framework projects and collaboration with the world's leading companies. Within these collaborations, EDI leverages European ICs and integrates them into novel applications, e.g. fail-operational autonomous driving, AI-based perception, collaborative robotics, wearable electronics, UAVs and others.
EDI researchers excel in application-oriented research and have an extensive record of designing digital circuits for the industry, including implementations of stereo-vision accelerators, infra-red image processing algorithms, state-of-the-art spatial image transformation for lens distortion correction and image registration, regex accelerator for hardware-based firewall, optical flow for SLAM algorithm acceleration among others. Currently, EDI packs developed accelerator streams into ICs for use by the industry in demanding computer vision products (https://www.edi.lv/en/projects/silicon-ip-design-house-silhouse-part-2/). EDI also has experience in analogue chip design and uses the taped-out chips to reduce the size of EDI UWB RADAR (https://www.edi.lv/en/solutions/uwb-impulse-radar-kit/). Furthermore, EDI embodies the national expertise in Heterogeneous System on Chip (HSoC) technology that leverages both - software and digital design paradigms for efficient and high-performance next-generation use-cases.
