Steelrat - Unifying Linux Landscape by NOMOVOK

Other Middleware

Product Description

 

Steelrat is Nomovok’s multi-purpose operating system based on Linux. It was created after realizing that in most embedded systems that we build for our customers, the requirements for the base platform are very similar, if not the same. We wanted to prevent reinventing the wheel. Thus, Steelrat was born.  

Steelrat attempts to solve a universal problem encountered often in the field: we try to find the common denominators for embedded systems in existence today, be it mobile phones, tablets, automotive infotainment or industrial automation systems. Based on this understanding, we build a platform that meets the needs of most embedded systems, enabling fast product creation, regardless of the industry branch our customer operates in. Industry specific add-ons will be added or implemented on top of Steelrat core.  

TECHNOLOGIES  

Steelrat is and always will be based on an established open source Linux distribution.    On top of the base platform, we have chosen two major application technologies: Qt and HTML5. Steelrat offers extensive support for both.  

In addition, NOMOVOK brings its own flavor to the mix, including WRATH high-performance graphics rendering framework, Steelgraph graphics stack, Steelbench testing framework and native build and integration tools. In addition, our builds are optimized for low power consumption and very fast boot-up times.

 

WHAT DOES IT RUN ON?   Steelrat runs on the following hardware platforms:  

• Acer ICONIA A500 (Cortex-A9)  
• Freescale i.MX51 (Cortex-A8)  
• Freescale i.MX53 (Cortex-A8)
