New Software Platform?

[digidocs]

One of the things that attracted me to the existing Dynon product line is that Dynon has its own dedicated RTOS-like software stack. Some other vendors use commercial OSes like WinCE which makes be a bit uncomfortable. What is general architecture of the new software platform?

Regardless, I think is much more aesthetically pleasing that some of the competitive offerings.

Thanks,

The new system will run a stabilized, minimal Linux kernel for the display.

The remote boxes like the AHRS, EMS, servos, etc still run with no OS, and the screen is managed by a no-OS micro.

Sounds like a very sensible architecture. Thanks for the info.

Does this mean you may follow the road taken by one of your competitors and open up some of the APIs for the adventurous to add plug-ins?

We do not plan on making this an open system.
