The Zephyr RTOS ecosystem continues to grow, as leading tech companies and innovative startups deepen their commitment to open source solutions. With new Platinum and Silver members, Zephyr RTOS is strengthening its position in the world of secure, flexible, and future-proof real-time operating systems. As anticipation rises for the Zephyr Developer Summit, industry insiders are watching to see how this momentum will drive developments.
Renesas and Wind River Elevate Support as Platinum Members
Renesas and Wind River have officially upgraded their roles within the Zephyr Project, joining the ranks of Platinum members. This move signals strong industry trust in Zephyr RTOS’s capabilities. Renesas brings expertise in microcontrollers and embedded processing, aiming to make open-source RTOS solutions more accessible. Wind River, as a founding member, is committed to expanding secure, safety-critical, and real-time embedded systems. Both companies will now join Zephyr’s Governing Board alongside other major tech leaders such as Intel, Google, and Qualcomm.
New Silver Members Blecon and Embeint Bolster Zephyr Community
The addition of Blecon and Embeint as Silver members highlights Zephyr RTOS’s appeal to fast-growing IoT and AI innovation firms. Blecon enables seamless Bluetooth-to-cloud connectivity for IoT devices, turning to Zephyr for its production-ready software and broad hardware support. Embeint focuses on simplifying machine learning and AI-driven firmware for ultra-low-power IoT devices. By choosing Zephyr, Embeint aims to embed intelligence on every device while avoiding low-level software complexities. These new Silver members join a vibrant community alongside Arduino, Arm, and STMicroelectronics.
Zephyr RTOS Gears Up for Upcoming Developer Summits
Excitement is building for the upcoming Zephyr Developer Summit, scheduled during the Open Source Summit Europe in Amsterdam this August. Developers and tech enthusiasts will dive into critical topics such as tooling, testing, simulation, and cross-domain innovation for Zephyr RTOS. Additionally, at the Open Source Summit North America in June, the community will showcase leading products and novel solutions powered by Zephyr. These events aim to unite developers and foster collaboration across industries.
In summary, Zephyr RTOS is expanding its influence with strong backing from major corporations and up-and-coming tech leaders. The enhanced membership demonstrates the platform’s reliability and forward-thinking approach to embedded development. As the Zephyr community gathers for summits this year, the future of connected devices and secure operating systems looks brighter than ever.
