The Road to embedded world: QNX Highlights Mission-Critical Software Solutions and Cloud Efficiency
March 11, 2025
Blog
QNX will be stationed in Hall 4, Booth 544 during embedded world where it will welcome attendees to learn more about its new solutions for mission-critical embedded applications. Highlights will include General Embedded Development Platform (GEDP), QNX Everywhere, QNX OS 8.0 in the Cloud, as well as a robotic arm demonstration.
General Embedded Development Platform
The GEDP is a high-performance foundation designed for secure, reliable, and mission-critical applications. QNX simplifies the complexities of software-defined architectures, safety requirements, and system consolidation. As a leading Android virtualization partner, its platform scales seamlessly from SoC to cloud. Highlights will include solutions that help manage software complexity, competitiveness, and future-proofing products.
QNX Everywhere
Experience QNX OS 8.0 on Raspberry Pi and in the cloud with QNX Everywhere, designed to simplify access to QNX software and development tools. IT is ideal for non-profits, hobbyists, and prototype builders, the free non-commercial version ensures the same security and reliability found in mission-critical applications.
With support from a dense community of open-source contributors, academic programs, and online training, the platform delivers an open ecosystem where most QNX APIs are POSIX and Linux compatible.
Mixed-Reality Robotic Factory Demonstration
Visitors will see a robotic factory arm with an operator control panel that integrates QNX Hypervisor, QNX OS 8.0, QNX Sensor Framework, ROS 2, Linux (RVIZ), MQTT, and OpenCV – to securely consolidate multiple functions. By blending mixed-criticality systems on a single SoC, QNX streamlines CPU consolidation and supports legacy software alongside emerging applications.
Complexities for Over-Engineering a Safe System
Louay Abdelkader, Director, Product Management at QNX, will present on March 12. Exploring the complexities of safety-critical systems, discover how addressing specific safety issues without considering the broader system's dependability can lead to excessive rework or unforeseen challenges.
The speaker session will cover real-world scenario analysis, the impact of elevated neutron flux on DRAM reliability, software-based error detection in safety-critical systems, and strategies for resilient, fault-tolerant designs.
