Hardware Beyond Audio: Unlocking Doors Across Multiple Industries

StreamUnlimited has always been a key player in the audio technology space — as we like to say “You might have not heard of us, but you’ve probably listened through us” — but our embedded modules have much more to offer. In an industry where most hardware companies focus solely on the hardware, we set ourselves apart by being deeply specialized in software as well. This combination of expertise allows us to offer fully customizable modules with wide-ranging applications. From powering smart home systems, smart audio devices, and IoT gateways to managing industrial control interfaces, our modules — Stream1955, Stream1832, and Stream210 — are designed to handle complex, connected solutions. This article delves into how our technical expertise and comprehensive software solutions extend beyond audio, offering tailored support for a variety of connected industries.

Unlocking Non-Audio Potential
The ready-to-use BSP allows customers to jumpstart development without complex software integration, focusing on customizing products like smart thermostats, home security systems, or industrial automation interfaces. Our modules come with required certifications for the US (FCC), Canada (IC), Japan (MIC), China (SRCC), and the EU (RED), ensuring compliance across major markets. Paired with long-term availability and software maintenance, StreamUnlimited modules offer a future-proof, scalable solution for connected products.

Module-Specific Capabilities
TheStream1955 is a powerhouse designed for high-performance applications. Its quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor and 8Gb of memory ensure smooth multitasking for smart home hubs or industrial control systems. With Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and support for LE Audio, it provides seamless communication for IoT devices like smart thermostats or security systems. Moreover, the  MIPI interface makes it perfect for high-resolution displays, ideal for home automation interfaces or visual IoT dashboards.

The Stream1832 is built for medium-complexity tasks like IoT gateway devices and smart home controllers. Its quad-core processor and 4Gb memory handle real-time data processing from connected devices and sensors. With support for Wi-Fi 6E, LE Audio, and Bluetooth 5.3, it ensures reliable communication and low-power functionality across smart home environments. The SPI interface supports basic displays for visual feedback and control panels.

Designed for low-power and high-connectivity applications, the Stream210 excels in compact IoT devices such as wearables and smart appliances. Its dual-core ARM Cortex-A32 processor along with 2Gb memory ensures efficient data processing with minimal power consumption. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 provide fast and reliable wireless communication, essential for smart refrigerators or industrial monitoring systems that need constant data exchange with cloud platforms.
