Realizing the Full Potential of the Intel^® Atom^™ Processor in Embedded Devices

The Intel^® Atom™ processor Z5xx series delivers the benefits of Intel architecture for small form factor, thermally constrained and fanless embedded applications. Ideal for applications requiring low power, graphics and multi-media intensive applications it is well suited for today’s portable devices.

The integration of software and hardware play a key role in enabling developers to fully realize the potential of the Intel Atom processors. Rich graphical capabilities, multi-media acceleration and human machine interface technology combined with instant device activation are all instrumental in ensuring a rich user experience.

In this webinar, the participants will learn about the features and benefits of the Intel Atom processor with a focus on its applications for the embedded market. Following this, the integration of the Intel Atom with the QNX Aviage Multimedia Suite and QNX Aviage HMI Suite will be explored. Finally, Fastboot, an instant-on capability developed for the Intel Atom by QNX Software Systems will be presented.

Estimated length: 1 hour, including Q & A.

Who should attend: This seminar is best suited for embedded software development managers, engineers, architects, and developers in automotive, industrial automation, medical and consumer markets.

Prerequisites: There are no prerequisites for this session.
