R&D lab

This is where we play and learn.

Our laboratory is where we research innovative solutions before they become products, explore new technologies and train the next generation of engineers. Much of what we do best grows out of that curiosity.

We teach a master's program in computer vision endorsed by Instituto Balseiro (CNEA).

NYTTlab

Computer vision

Real-time biometric identification (face, voice, fingerprint); camera-based quality control of fruit and vegetables for sorting equipment; automatic license-plate reading for vehicle control. Models served as microservices, with inference on FPGA and GPU (CUDA).

  • Smart Security (PoC): detection of suspicious poses and behaviour
  • Liver segmentation in MRI images with a 3D CNN (delivered)

Microelectronics and DSP on FPGA

Prototyping of communication algorithms: adaptive decision-feedback equalizer (ADFE), FIR and IIR filters, Gaussian noise generator, carrier recovery (Viterbi-Viterbi and decision-directed), fractionally spaced frequency-domain equalizer with LMS, adaptive MIMO equalizer in SCM, convolutional-layer processor for neural networks, matrix multiplier for AI and 2D matrix product with systolic arrays. Transceivers for coherent optical communications from 10 to 600 Gbps (single-carrier and multi-carrier), VLSI implementations.

  • Platforms: LEON III, MicroBlaze, ARM, ESP32, Microchip
  • RTL in VHDL with Gaisler libraries (PCI bus)
  • Pre-synthesis, post-synthesis and post-implementation verification with Libero SoC and ModelSim
  • UVM agents per protocol: CAN, SPI, UART, AXI, SpaceWire, I2C
