The Android-based OpenSTDroid embedded software is part of the STM32 MPU embedded software offer.
It is a set of software (see architecture overview), system build and development tools created to ease the development to be done on top of STM32 MPU devices.
Android-based OpenSTDroid embedded software includes:
- a distribution Android™, running on the Arm® Cortex®-A processor(s): OpenSTDroid distribution
- firmwares, running on the Arm® Cortex®-M processor: FwST-M Packages
The Android-based OpenSTDroid embedded software offers two development packages that let developers select the support that best meets their needs:
- the OpenSTDroid starter package to quickly and easily start with the evaluation boards. It delivers a software image (binary).
- the OpenSTDroid distribution package to create your own Android-based embedded software, as well as your own starter package. It delivers the source code of all the software components of the Android-based OpenSTDroid embedded software, and uses the Android build process.
