Qualcomm platform engineering
MotoVisio takes Qualcomm silicon from vendor release to fielded system for robotics and autonomous platforms — bring-up, camera pipelines, autonomy and flight control integration, security, and models that run on the NPU. Then we build the modules to prove it.
Platforms
We work across Qualcomm's current and previous generation robotics, industrial, and IoT silicon — on our own modules and on customer carrier boards.

What we do
Boot chain, kernel, DSP and sensor firmware, camera pipeline, NPU, autonomy software, and the link home. Integration issues get resolved, not routed between vendors.
A custom carrier and a vendor source release become a platform your team can build, flash, and depend on.
A Qualcomm platform is not one image. The DSPs, the sensor island, the always-on processor, and the secure world each have their own build and their own ways to fail. We build, debug, and deploy across all of them.
Secure boot, filesystem encryption, and QTEE trusted applications, with the key management and provisioning flow a factory can run.
Camera bring-up over MIPI CSI and GMSL, buffer management, and multi-camera capture, backed by extensive CamX, CHI-CDK, and camera kernel experience.
A trained model on the NPU, at production latency: deployment on QNN, quantized vision models and LLMs on the HTP, and camera-to-model pipelines that run on the silicon end to end.
Extensive PX4 experience on UAVs and UUVs, and deep ROS 2 experience beside it: the software between the module and the machine, from autopilot integration to perception that closes the loop in motion.
Video and telemetry off a moving platform, engineered for how the link behaves in the field, not on the bench.
A vendor source release turned into a build your team owns: reproducible, in CI, and ready to flash.
Hardware
Qualcomm Dragonwing QCS8550
Qualcomm's 4 nm QCS8550, kernel 5.15, with 12 GB of LPDDR5X, 128 GB of UFS 4.0, and three 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 camera inputs.
Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-8750 (CQ8750S)
Qualcomm's 3 nm Q-8750, kernel 6.6, with 24 GB of LPDDR5X, 256 GB of UFS 4.0, and four GMSL camera inputs.
Why MotoVisio
Qualcomm silicon wins on size, weight, power, and connectivity, and its robotics line adds parts and partners every year. What does not ship with the chip is the engineering between a source release and a product in the field. We bring deep experience at every layer of that work, across multiple generations of Qualcomm silicon.
Raw vendor releases to shipping images across three generations of Qualcomm platforms, including carrier boards designed by our clients.
Boot chain, kernel, DSP and sensor firmware, camera pipeline, NPU, autonomy software, and the link home. Integration issues get resolved, not routed between vendors.
Direct platform support from Qualcomm follows purchase volume. We bring that depth on the silicon to a startup or a single product at the unit counts it actually orders, with no volume commitment to unlock it.
Applications
Onboard perception inside a real power and weight budget, autopilot and payload integration, GPS-denied navigation, and a link engineered for range.
Autonomy with no link to shore. Vehicle control, capture, and inference run entirely on the vehicle, inside pressure and thermal limits that rule out larger compute.
Camera systems for unattended remote installations: long-duration and low-light imaging, precise capture control, and operation where no one is on site to intervene.
A US-based team, a verified boot chain, trusted execution, and encrypted data paths, with the provenance discipline this work requires.
Three ways to work with us
