Overview

Although originally designed for mobile handsets, the Android Operating System offers designers of embedded applications the ability to easily add a high-level OS to their product. Developed in association with Google, Android delivers a complete operating system  that is ready for integration and production today.


Highlights of the Android OS include:

  • Complete, Open Source Software solution
  • Based upon Linux
  • Easy licensing terms for commercial development (Apache)
  • Includes a complete Application Framework
  • Allows for easy integration of customer developed Applications via Java
  • Multimedia, Graphics, and Graphical User Interface are included out of the box
  • A large community of Android and Applications developers are ready today
