Texas Instruments announced the availability of a new software development kit (SDK) that brings Android 4.0 – known as ‘Ice Cream Sandwich’ – to TI’s Sitara AM335x and AM37x ARM Cortex-A8 processors. This complete software offering allows innovators to fully evaluate Android 4.0 on embedded applications running on Sitara processors.
The kit aims to allow developers to take advantage of Android 4.0 for low-cost, low-power applications, including wearable gadgets such as watches, goggles, display panels for home appliances and automation, education and enterprise tablets that are non-video centric, point-of-sale terminals, portable navigation devices and industrial control applications.
Complete with pre-integrated connectivity and 3D graphics capabilities, the SDK provides a stable software foundation that can be utilised on a wide range of Sitara processor products. To help developers quickly and easily integrate and evaluate Android-based applications, the SDK is fully tested for functionality using the Android compatibility test suite on the AM335x evaluation module (EVM), Beagleboard-xM, BeagleBone, AM37x EVM and Flash Board platforms.
