The work of embedded video pipelines is demonstrated when you raise your phone to scan a QR code, get into a car with driver monitoring, or activate the FPV feed on a drone. There are cameras everywhere, and they’re not only for taking selfies. Autonomous cars, industrial inspection, medical imaging, AR/VR headsets, and security equipment are all powered by them. According to Grand View Research, the market for camera modules alone was estimated to be worth $47.74 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $87.59 billion by 2030. It is evident that video is central to embedded systems when

Check out our QNX BSP Demo in the NXP platform here, live in action – Click Here The boot time in the real-time systems should be faster to achieve systems objectives and be reliable enough to meet its demand. QNX Real Time Operating System is a leader in the operating systems market and achieves great results applying advanced methods in boot enhancing without losing functionality and performance. This blog takes a look at six tried and tested strategies QNX normally employs in order to reduce boot time further helping developers create solutions that are always primed and ready for action.
Check out our QNX BSP Demo in the NXP platform here, live in action – Click Here Why Is It Important to Optimise Boot Time? Businesses prefer boot time optimisation as it allows them to enhance user experience as well as operational efficiency. Moreover, for sectors such as automotive, where every passing second counts, quicker boot times offer more responsive systems. Similarly, embedded Linux boot time optimisation provides for enhanced reliability and performance when it comes to ADAS or infotainment systems. The below image vividly illustrates two critical scenarios – defence and medical – where choosing the right operating system
Understanding the Role of a Linux BSP A Linux Board Support Package (BSP) is a critical software layer that enables the Linux kernel to operate on specific embedded hardware. It includes bootloaders, device drivers, and configuration files tailored for a board’s processor and peripherals, such as I2C, SPI, or GPIO. Tools like Yocto and Buildroot simplify BSP creation by providing frameworks to customize kernels and filesystems. The BSP ensures hardware initialization and compatibility, reducing development time for applications in IoT, automotive, and consumer electronics. Without a Linux BSP, developers face manual integration challenges, delaying product launches. A robust BSP is
In the fast-paced world of embedded systems, an Android BSP (Board Support Package) is critical for deploying tailored Android solutions on diverse hardware platforms. From IoT devices to industrial systems and single-board computers (SBCs), Android BSP development ensures seamless integration between the Android operating system and custom hardware. This blog explores the essentials of an Android BSP, its technical components, and practical steps for developers to create optimized, hardware-specific Android solutions. What is an Android BSP? An Android BSP is a specialized software package that enables the Android operating system to run on specific hardware. It serves as an intermediary
