🚀 Prototyping on new hardware usually means weeks of low-level integration before you write a single line of application code. Serial, I2C, SPI, CAN, PWM, GPIO, Ethernet, each interface needs to be configured, wrapped and tested before your Android app can even talk to the board. The Kynetics Embedded Android Developer Toolkit removes that setup cost on the Toradex SMARC i.MX95, powered by the NXP Semiconductors i.MX95. EADT brings three pieces in your development toolbox for @Toradex SMARC i.MX95: 🖥️ A development-ready Embedded Android OS for the i.MX95 🛠️ Hardware SDKs that expose every interface directly through Android API calls 📡 OTA updates and remote device management via Update Factory, active from day one If you're building on the i.MX95 and want to skip the integration tax, this is how.

40 years ago, Bosch solved one of automotive engineering's messiest problems. The fix now runs surgical robots and factory floors too. It's called CAN bus, a two-wire network enabling dozens of systems to communicate without a central computer: 🚗 In cars, CAN replaced hundreds of point-to-point connections with a single shared bus 🏥 In medical devices, CAN delivers priority-based arbitration and built-in error detection for life-critical systems 🏭 In industrial automation, CAN coordinates PLCs, sensors and actuators over noisy factory floors But when it comes to Android, there's a gap. The standard Android SDK doesn't support CAN bus. For teams building Android-powered devices that need to talk to CAN-based hardware, it can be a blocker, you either build your own bridge or stay off Android entirely. Kynetics CAN SDK removes that constraint. A simple API lets Android applications communicate directly with CAN-based devices, with minimum OS requirements. ▶️ Watch the video on the Toradex Verdin AM62P using our Embedded Android Developer Toolkit: https://lnkd.in/g_9WmyJC If you're building Android on hardware that talks CAN, this is the missing piece developers will love. #EmbeddedAndroid #CANbus #EmbeddedSystems

OTA updates and device management on embedded devices aren't just a technical matter. They're an operational one. 🚀 We just published the first in a new series of technical notes on Update Factory, Kynetics' platform for managing the full update lifecycle on Android and Linux fleets. In this technical note we give you an overview of what Update Factory is, the problems it solves for teams managing devices in the field, and how features like staged rollouts, resumable downloads, and DCU, our remote device management feature, fit together into a complete device management platform. 📖 Read the full technical note: https://lnkd.in/gDcYtkgX #EmbeddedSystems #OTA #AndroidEmbedded #Linux #FleetManagement

💡 For embedded teams building AI-powered devices, Android is increasingly adopted in medical, industrial, and biotech devices, but integrating a custom BSP for a new platform remains one of the most time-consuming challenges in any product development cycle. 🚀 We just published a new video introducing the Kynetics EADT on the Ezurio Tungsten SMARC SOM, powered by the MediaTek Genio 700, an octa-core platform built on a 6nm process with an integrated AI accelerator. EADT gives you a complete toolkit to accelerate Embedded Android software development. It includes MediaTek's AOSP+, the Embedded SDK for programmatic hardware access, and Update Factory for OTA updates and remote device management, all-in-one product. 🎬 Watch the video to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gk8hkRdF #EmbeddedAndroid #EADT #MediaTek #Ezurio #EmbeddedSystems

🚨Building Android apps for embedded systems? Hardware integration shouldn't be the hardest part. When applications need to interact with sensors, motors, or hardware not natively supported by Android standard SDK, developers often rely on low-level programming. This adds complexity and slows development. In our latest video, we show how the Kynetics Embedded Android SDK lets developers control hardware directly with API calls. Multiple Embedded Android SDKs are available, each one targeting a specific hardware interface or communication protocol: ➡️ Serial: RS-232 / RS-485 ➡️ I2C & SPI ➡️ CAN Bus ➡️ PWM & GPIO ➡️ Ethernet The result? Less time wrestling with system-level integration, more time building the product. ▶️ Watch the video to learn more: https://lnkd.in/g2qqscta #EmbeddedAndroid #AndroidDev #IoT

Nice to see our Embedded Android – running on the Ezurio Tungsten 700 featuring MediaTek Genio 700 – in the news!

🚨 Our new graphical performance evaluation is out! We put the Toradex Verdin AM62P and Verdin AM62, both based on Texas Instruments processors, head-to-head using Kynetics EADT (Embedded Android Developer Toolkit). The evaluation includes: ✔️ Full HD 1080p video playback at 60 FPS ✔️ Synthetic GPU benchmarking ✔️ Practical 2D and 3D graphics workloads The results show that the Verdin AM62P delivers significantly higher performance thanks to its more powerful GPU and dedicated VPU, making it an excellent choice for graphics-intensive Embedded Android applications and advanced HMIs. ▶️ Watch the video here: https://lnkd.in/giVSr9V3 #toradex #texasinstruments #embeddedandroid

🔧 Windows CE has reached end of life. What’s next for your embedded devices? Redesign everything from scratch, or modernize what already works? 💡 In this video, we show how existing embedded systems can be modernized by moving to Embedded Android with .NET MAUI and the Kynetics Embedded Android Developer Toolkit (EADT), while continuing to use C# and familiar .NET development tools. We demonstrate the transition through two practical examples: ⚙️ Generate a modern HMI with AI, running on F&S Elektronik Systeme GmbH PicoCore i.MX 8ULP ⚙️ GPIO-based hardware interaction on Toradex AM62P (Verdin SoM with Mallow carrier board) using the Embedded GPIO SDK included in Kynetics EADT From HMI to hardware control, modern embedded applications can now be built using one familiar development stack. 🎬 Watch the video to see it in action: https://lnkd.in/gm7Gujq4 #WindowsCE #EmbeddedSystems #HMI

⚙️ Debugging kiosks, HMIs, and smart devices in production is still costly and time-consuming. Every issue can mean delays, onsite interventions, and operational disruption. Update Factory, Kynetics’ device management platform, supports peer-to-peer remote debugging, enabling product teams to use familiar Android tools to: ✅ Securely access devices ✅ Monitor logs and system behavior in real time ✅ Debug interactively without physical access ✅ View and interact with the device screen in real time All of this without impacting the rest of the fleet or interrupting end users’ daily operations. 👉 Check the video to learn more about remote debugging with Update Factory: https://lnkd.in/gsK8maPm #EmbeddedSystems #Android #IoT #RemoteDebugging #OTA

🚀 We’re excited to showcase the Ezurio Tungsten 700 System-on-Module, powered by MediaTek Genio 700, through a real-world graphics performance test that we ran using the Kynetics Embedded Android Developer Toolkit to evaluate sustained multimedia capability under load. 🔬 Our test setup: 🔹 Continuous 1080p (Full HD) video playback at 60 FPS 🔹 Synthetic graphics benchmark using the OpenGL API 🔹 Vulkan graphics performance test 🔹 2D/3D rendering test 📊 Results: 🔹 Stable frame rate with no visible drops 🔹 Smooth and responsive UI during active playback 🔹 Consistent performance throughout the test duration This level of validation is essential for applications where visual performance and reliability are critical, including industrial HMIs, kiosks, and edge-based multimedia systems. 🎥 Take a look at the results: https://lnkd.in/gaWZ-trj #EmbeddedSystems #EdgeComputing #Android #IoT
