About Techsol

As our business continues to rapidly expand, we are revamping both the Medallion System and zPoint Products Web sites. Both will feature products that have not been previously publicized. In addition, we are launching new divisions this year to better address specific types of products. Some of these divisions will have their own Web sites as well. Check back for news and updates!

Thank you,
Brian Empey, P.Eng.
CEO

Founded in 1996, Technical Solutions grew from the realization that despite dramatic hardware and software advancements over the years, embedded technology had remained essentially (and disappointingly) unchanged. In fact, increasing complexity in both the hardware and software domains resulted in a “technology divide” between the large corporations and the smaller companies who could also benefit from powerful operating systems on 32-bit RISC CPUs.

In response, we offer a proprietary enabling technology that puts smaller companies on par with the big ones — at least in terms of access to technology. This technology is ideally suited to applications where low power and/or small physical size are vital.

The first application of Techsol's breakthrough technology is “Medallion”, a brand of high-performance computer modules, that have been specifically designed to improve and shorten the new product design process. Eclipsing the competition, the “Medallion” possesses interchangeability, allowing ease of multiple configurations and simple upgrades. However, a Medallion CPU Module is not just a small computer. The Medallion System encompasses the operating system, drivers for peripherals, hardware and software designs for additional peripherals including LCDs, Wireless, GPS, keyboards, USB storage, and so on. We offer CPU modules, development kits, plus reference designs that can be used as off-the-shelf products too! The first “ready-to-run” product line is a range of Medallion-powered Internet and network appliances, called Gateways. Future products may include tablet computers, personal digital assistants (PDA), point of sale devices (POS), and industrial terminals, to name a few.

To establish ourselves as a portable technology leader, we know we have to refine and sustain innovative technologies, along with our flagship products and services. Consequently, we've invested heavily in research, design, and engineering. In doing so, the company hopes to fulfill the unmet needs and desires of highly-targeted market segments in various industries.
