Embox main idea is using Linux software without Linux.

Imagine, you need a single application in the embedded system, but you want to use some libraries (Qt, OpenCV, etc). In Linux case you need a high-performance hardware. In Embox case you can use the software as bare-metal including the only required system parts.

Benefits of this way:

• Use low power hardware
• Use boards with small resources
• Use existing software
• Develop your software on Linux
• Care less about security because static linking disables executing external software

Embox achievements:

• VoIP phone on STM32F7Discovery based on PJSIP project
• Qt on STM32F7Discovery
• OpenCV on STM32F769i board
• A lot of programming languages available: Python, Lisp, Java (phoneme), TCL, Ruby, Lua
• SSHD based on Dropbear project
• Mesa3d
• Quake3
• telnetd, httpd
• zeromq, qpid
• ...
