Product Showcases

This page exists to show products that people can actually buy and use, built on the EmbeddedOS stack. Not prototypes, not demos, not roadmaps — products that have shipped to customers and are running EmbeddedOS software in the field.

Nothing is listed here yet. When a listing does appear, you should be able to trust that the product described is a real thing in real customers’ hands, not a rendering and not a promise.

Two conditions, both required. First, the product has shipped to real users outside the company that made it. Second, it runs EmbeddedOS software — the eos kernel, eBoot, or other stack components — in its shipping form. A development board used for evaluation does not count as a shipped product, and a prototype shown at a trade show does not count either.

Submissions are reviewed by Foundation maintainers before anything is listed. A vendor supplies a description of the product and a public link where customers can find it, and the details are confirmed before publication.

A listing on a foundation website reads as an endorsement, whether or not anyone intends it that way. Visitors will reasonably assume the Foundation stands behind what appears here. A demo can be staged for a camera; a shipped product has survived customers, support tickets, and manufacturing. That is the difference the bar protects.

The bar is deliberately higher than the one on the project showcases page. Projects may be experiments, and experiments are welcome — but products listed here must be facts. That asymmetry is intentional, and it is what makes a listing here mean something.

Each listing describes which parts of the stack the product uses — for example, the eos kernel together with eBoot and the IPC layer — and which board or silicon it ships on, where the vendor permits that detail. Some vendors treat their board choice as proprietary; the listing says so rather than guessing.

The listing also links to the vendor’s own product page, so you can see the product in its maker’s words. The Foundation does not sell anything, takes no commission, and runs no affiliate links. The point is to document, in public, that the stack works inside products people rely on.

If your company ships a product built on EmbeddedOS, write to contact@embeddedos.org with a description of the product, the stack components it uses, and a public link where customers can find it. Maintainers will review the submission and confirm the details with you before anything is published.

There is no fee, no sponsorship tier, and no paid placement. A listing is never bought; it is earned by shipping.

Case studies carry measured outcomes — numbers, benchmarks, before-and-after results from real deployments. Project showcases cover community and research builds, and require nothing to have shipped. This page sits between them: the requirement is commercial reality, not measured performance, and not experimentation for its own sake.

If you are deciding where your work belongs, the question is simple. Has it shipped to customers? If yes, this page. If it runs on real hardware but is not a product, the project showcases page. If you measured something worth reporting, a case study. The three pages are meant to stay distinct, so each one keeps its meaning.
