The Contiki Operating System
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
Contiki is an open source operating system that runs on tiny low-power
|
|
microcontrollers and makes it possible to develop applications that
|
|
make efficient use of the hardware while providing standardized
|
|
low-power wireless communication for a range of hardware platforms.
|
|
|
|
Contiki is used in numerous commercial and non-commercial systems,
|
|
such as city sound monitoring, street lights, networked electrical
|
|
power meters, industrial monitoring, radiation monitoring,
|
|
construction site monitoring, alarm systems, remote house monitoring,
|
|
and so on.
|
|

|
|
This fork of the Contiki Operating System adds support for our Merkur
|
|
Board, adds a lot of examples (with different hardware) and puts an
|
|
Arduino compatibility layer on top of Contiki-OS that allows Arduino
|
|
Sketches -- and a lot of drivers for Arduino compatible hardware -- to
|
|
run under Contiki-OS.
