Neurealm designed and implemented an FPGA‑based video pipeline that captures, processes, and outputs real‑time endoscopy camera video to dual 4K HDMI displays, meeting stringent latency and imaging performance requirements for a Tier‑1 medical technology customer.

Business Context

A leading medical equipment company required a complete video‑processing solution for its endoscopy device, replacing obsolete SDI IP and delivering low‑latency (<1 frame) 4K video processing with advanced features such as rotation and logo insertion. The scope spanned architecture, FPGA design, embedded software, integration, and system testing to support modern surgical visualization needs in high‑performance clinical environments.

Solutions

Neurealm took full ownership of the project, architecting the FPGA pipeline using a mix of Altera IP and custom logic, and developed video‑mixing and rotation algorithms. They implemented firmware on a Nios II soft processor, optimized data throughput to keep latency within one frame, and performed unit and system‑level validation—delivering a production‑ready video solution now powering the customer’s flagship endoscopy product.
