“Using such platforms is advantageous for product developers as the complete hardware design, firmware, open source OS and reference projects are already available and give them a head start in their product development. The developer will have to only focus on developing the application and ID design (look and feel) to take the product to market,” suggests Selvaraj Kaliyappan , vice president – PES Engineering, Mistral Solutions.
