  ADAS
  algorithms utilizing various inputs, outputs and multiple processing cores.
• Automotive machine vision ALPHA reference board based on System On Chip of Texas Instruments. The board is intended for car manufacturers (
  OEMs), automotive design houses (Tier1/2/3) for rapid prototyping, TI automotive customers, and algorithm developers for demo purposes.^[4]

Zoran Corporation singled out RT-RK for porting Android onto their System on Chip (SOC), joining forces in development of multimedia applications and services for connected TV.^[6]

In 2011 RT-RK became a shareholder of iWedia, a Swiss-based company and operates as system integrator on Set-Top Box and TV software products based on their

In 2012 RT-RK announced cooperation with General Satellite on their Set-Top Box GS-8305 deployed on the network of Tricolor TV,^[7] which was developed by RT-RK. Mass production of the box in their factory in Kaliningrad has been tested by the RT-RK’s BBT Set-Top Box testing products.

Its Android background was helpful to integrate

In September 2014 the company made ANDROID4TV software framework open source facilitating TV operators worldwide with the benefits of leveraging of Android openness, flexibility, and developers' community.[11]

iWedia has many projects, including SAT>IP server

RT-RK continues operations providing services to other players in the Digital TV world, some of them being: SmarDTV,^[14] Vidmind,^[15] and Wyplay.^[16]
