Medical Endoscopy Solutions

4K / FPGA imaging foundation for medical and industrial inspection, with optional AI post-processing

For medical and industrial endoscopy, Shunter delivers module / board solutions on an FPGA HD camera pipeline—covering recording, freeze, white balance, electronic zoom, multi-video interfaces, and dual-screen mirroring.

In 2025–2026 we reserve AI post-processing interfaces on the existing 4K imaging chain and support phone-connected portable forms to lower deployment cost.

Solution stack

Four layers working together

Imaging layer

HD / 4K sensor and lens-module bring-up for clarity and color consistency in medical and industrial conditions.

Processing layer

FPGA pipeline for freeze, electronic zoom, white balance, and custom scene parameters.

Output layer

Multi-video interfaces and dual-screen mirroring for OR, production line, and portable inspection sites.

Extension layer

Reserved AI post-processing and custom PCBA interfaces for defect assist and industry customization.

Implementation path

Six steps from requirements to mass production

Typical projects advance by stage—shortening the gap between “the sample looks good” and “production stays stable.”

  1. 1

    Scenario and interface definition

    Define medical rigid scope / laryngoscope / industrial inspection form; lock resolution, interfaces, and display mode.

  2. 2

    Sensor and optics selection

    Select modules by diameter, depth of field, and illuminance; assess cable and connector reliability.

  3. 3

    Board / FPGA solution

    Confirm processing chain, recording capability, and multi-interface output; customize PCBA when needed.

  4. 4

    Imaging and UI bring-up

    Calibrate white balance, scene parameters, touch interaction, and dual-screen consistency.

  5. 5

    Trial-production validation

    Mechanical fit, ESD / thermal drift, and small-batch consistency checks.

  6. 6

    Mass production and optional AI

    Mass-production regression; add defect-assist and other AI post-processing on demand.
