Las Vegas, Nevada. While exhibiting at CES 2024, MicroEJ will reveal the MICROEJ VEE (Virtual Execution Environment) based VEE Wear operating system (OS) for wearables. Located in booth #52739 in the Venetian Expo, MicroEJ will demonstrate the OS’s ability to run cost and power efficient microcontrollers and microprocessors. “Based on tiny software containers, the essence of VEE Wear is to create an ultra-low footprint operating system that reshapes the way wearable products are developed,” said Dr. Fred Rivard, CEO, MicroEJ.

Developing mixed or multiple managed code can be difficult, especially if you’re working with a resource-constrained device running on a microcontroller or microprocessor. In such instances, even code bugs that seem mundane, like a stack overflow, could cause full system crashes if they’re not caught.

In a recent article, embedded systems consultant Jacob Beningo raised the question of whether it's time to retire the C programming language due to its limitations surrounding complexity and potential for error and the shortage of C developers. In response, Andrei Gorine argued that C's compact footprint makes it more competitive than resource-heavy modern languages like Java, C# and Go.

Boston, Massachusetts. MicroEJ attended CES 2023 and showcased how it leverages the combination of Managed-C programming language and its containerized MicroEJ Virtual Execution Environment (VEE) for efficient and secure connected devices. The mix of Managed-C to MicroEJ’s multi-language architecture completely utilizes the adaptability of C without the hassles of secure memory management and multi-task synchronization.

CES 2023. Polar Electro announced its collaboration with MicroEJ to revolutionize digital health wearables. MicroEJ supports the same abilities as an OS and includes improved battery operating time, reliable connectivity, and in-depth user interfaces.

MicroEJ announced the availability of Android Compatibility Kit, connecting global electronic things manufacturers to an ecosystem of Android Studio and associated developers.

Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS), leading provider of cellular IoT chips and modules, and MicroEJ, leading provider of standard software containers for IoT, announced a collaboration whereby the standard software Edge container, MICROEJ VEE, has been ported to Sequans’ Monarch 2 platform, bringing significant benefits to Sequans’ IoT customers.
