Why? Processors continue to become more powerful and memory less expensive.

However, this is definitely not the case for embedded systems!

Cost price, power requirements (battery) and heat dissipation (reliability) are the key factors here.

Luperco has considerable experience in this field. We have successfully accelerated some software by a factor of more than ten in the past.

Indeed, it is generally not the hardware which usually slows down a system but rather it is almost always the software!

Did you know that a spreadsheet program actually once existed which only required a 1 MHz, 8-bit processor with 32KB of RAM? It was called Visicalc: the early predecessor of Excel. This goes to show that great things can be done with only very low hardware specifications.

This is extremely important in the case of embedded systems. Luperco has proven many times that it can achieve results very fast.
