We utilize our varied areas of expertise to satisfy the individual requirements with which we are consistently challenged. The situations that present themselves often call for the most creative of solutions  Our people have been carefully screened to encompass only those who are able to think "outside the box". This allows us to bring together ideas leading to the most efficient way to address any need brought before us.

History

HISTORY

RTSI was formed in October of 1993 when Mizar Inc. changed its strategic direction from 68K to DSP. RTSI has focused on OS-9 based projects since that time. As the customer base expanded and needs were met, RTSI modified its facilities to react quickly to customer demands. Our experience with Microware based software dates back to Microware's inception. Today RTSI LLC. is the leading consulting firm in OS-9 and real time related systems solutions.  In February 2013 RTSI LLC, Microsys Gmbh, and Freestation Inc purchase all of the rights to Microware OS-9 From Radisys Corporation.   Since that time we have been updating and adding new feature to OS-9.
