Solid State Supplies has announced that they will be presenting a paper at this year's Device Developers' Conference, entitled "Android for Embedded Devices". The presentation will explain the benefits of using the Android operating system for device development and will introduce the tools and solutions available to help engineers and programmers get started.

The Device Developers' Conference is a UK event for engineers and designers involved in the development of intelligent systems and devices. It consists of a tools and technology vendor exhibition, three presentation streams and five half-day technology workshops. The 2014 Device Developers’ Conference will take place over four dates and four locations. Starting with Bristol on Tuesday 20th May, the event will then visit Cambridge (22nd May), Manchester (3rd June) and Scotland (5th June).

The Device Developers' Conference explores the technologies and tools used in the development of embedded systems and electronics. The aim of the event is to provide a productive forum whereby engineers can meet key industry experts from design tool and hardware vendors, as well as undertaking half-day workshops and presentations that offer new skills and knowledge.

“Many developers are adopting Android as an embedded platform, “ said Matt Cook, Business Development Manager at Solid State Supplies. “Android has proven to provide a stable kernel and a huge library of open source code and device drivers. It also has no royalties or license fees and benefits from a global development community. It’s an attractive choice for developers. This presentation will also show embedded systems engineers how the Android operating system compares to embedded Linux systems, other RTOS's and other OS's, so that delegates will be able to choose whether Android might be the right choice for their future product designs.”

Attendance at the Device Developers' Conference, including the extensive agenda of 40 minute presentations, is free to engineers and project managers working in the technology sector. The half-day workshops are subject to a small charge.
