Foundation

Programmes

The Foundation's organised activities, as distinct from the things it publishes — ambassadors, university partnerships, grants and the marketing programmes that support members.

None of these are running yet

All nine are proposed. Nothing on this page is open for applications today, and no programme here has members. They are published because the shape of what the Foundation intends to build is worth showing — but a roadmap presented as a prospectus is the kind of thing that makes everything else harder to believe, so it is said plainly instead.

Community

  • Recognised contributors who represent EmbeddedOS at events, run local sessions, and carry feedback from their region back to the technical steering committee.

    Details
  • Course materials, hardware kits and mentoring for universities teaching embedded systems on an open stack rather than a vendor toolchain.

    Details
  • Regular local meetings for people building on EmbeddedOS, organised by ambassadors and supported with materials from the Foundation.

    Details

Marketing

  • A coordinated calendar of talks, booths and workshops at embedded, RTOS and open-source conferences, with a shared CFP pipeline members can join.

    Details
  • Blog slots, social amplification and launch support for member organisations, on the model OpenSSF and RISC-V run for their members.

    Details
  • Joint announcements and co-authored material with silicon vendors and integrators shipping EmbeddedOS in their products.

    Details

Research

  • Formal research partnerships with academic groups, publishing jointly and contributing results back into the platform.

    Details
  • Applied research with companies deploying EmbeddedOS, on problems too large for one organisation and too specific for a standards body.

    Details
  • Funding for independent work on the embedded stack — security analysis, formal verification, hardware bring-up — awarded on published criteria.
