Mike Vizard talks with Kate Stewart of the Linux Foundation about the Zephyr Project’s 10th anniversary and its role as an open source real-time operating system for embedded devices. Stewart explains how Zephyr brings modern development practices, supply chain resilience, safety work and hardware abstraction to constrained environments where Linux is too large. The conversation also explores edge AI use cases, safety certification efforts and the types of contributors needed to help Zephyr continue scaling across devices, sensors and embedded systems.
