Services
Digital Nemesis is a respected electronic design and software engineering company with many successful customer products delivered since we started in 1999.
We have skills and expirence in the areas of:
- Embedded Systems and Software
- Electronic Design and Development
- Printed Circuit Board Layout and Design
- C-Tick and other regulatory approvals
- Software Engineering, including Large Database Systems
- Project Management
- Technical Writing
We are now concentrating on developing our own products, so are generally not taking on any new customer work, sorry. However if you have an urgent need, please contact us and we will see what we can do.

Product Development Examples
The following are just some of the electronic products we have developed for our customers.
Marine Waste Water Treatment Controller
A control system was required to manage an on-board wase treatment system for boats to meet strict new environmental requirements in Queensland. This controller managed the treating of waste, the filling of storage tanks, and the eventual discharge of the treated effluent.
X10 Interface
A customer in Japan requested that Digital Nemesis develop a microcontroller based board to simplify the connection of a computer to an X10 network.
The resulting board manages the complex timing required to interface with a "TW-523" power line interface and provides a simple serial interface to its host computer.
Industrial MP3 Player
An Australian multimedia company required a robust audio player for interactive multimedia exhibits in museums.
Digital Nemesis developed a MP3 player that uses Compact Flash for audio storage. It has an internal amplifier and eight trigger inputs. The trigger inputs are used to play different tracks and loops based on a simple script also stored on the Compact Flash card.
This device is now in use in several Australian Museums and Interpretive Centres.
PC I/O Board
An Australian multimedia company required a small but fully featured Input/Output solution to interface multimedia applications to external devices.
Digital Nemesis developed a board that interfaces with a host computer using a serial port. To make this system easy for multimedia developers to use, a Macromedia Director "Xtra" was written for the PC and a COM object was also written.
This device is now in use in several Australian Museums and Interpretive Centres.
Coin Detector
An Interpretive Centre wished to have a donation box respond with audio when a coin was dropped in.
Digital Nemesis developed a small board that would detect the passage of a coin through a slot using modulated Infrared light. A small microcontroller drove the IR LEDs and monitored the outputs of several IR Receivers to detect the passage of a coin.
This board was combined with a MP3 player (above) to provide a random message of thanks each time a coin was deposited.
Glass Heating Power Controller
An Australian manufacturing company needed a C-Tick approved power controller to regulate the amount of energy supplied to a refrigerator display door to stop it frosting over.
Digital Nemesis developed a very small board, within tight space constraints, to regulate the mains power to the heating film on the glass door panel. At the same time, various safety and configuration features were added to the board resulting in a cheaper overall solution that also is safer and quicker to install.
