Discover how QNX Everywhere is making it easy for real-time embedded development by giving engineers free, non-commercial access to the same QNX® OS, tools, and capabilities trusted in mission-critical systems. This workshop shows technical professionals in medical, robotics, industrial, and aerospace domains how to rapidly prototype using familiar open-source workflows while leveraging deterministic performance and safety-grade architecture. Learn how to accelerate innovation, validate ideas, and build high-performance embedded solutions with confidence. Attendees will also get a sneak peek at how QNX can support emerging physical AI systems, where real-time software meets sensing, actuation, and intelligent edge applications. In this workshop attendees will get an introduction the QNX 8.0.2 operating system and will develop a project to run on a target Raspberry Pi board, which attendees can keep.

Giveaway To All Attendees Raspberry Pi 5 (with a Broadcom BCM2712 quad-core Arm Cortex A76 processor) loaded with a full suite of QNX development tools. Registrants MUST attend in person to receive the giveaway.
Who should attend? This workshop is targeted at embedded engineers with a working knowledge of embedded development, particularly with C. The session will be less useful for people who already have extensive existing knowledge of developing with QNX.
HW/SW requirements Raspberry Pi 5 (with a Broadcom BCM2712 quad-core Arm Cortex A76 processor) will be provided for use during the workshop. A Windows laptop is recommended, but any setup that is capable of connecting to a remote target via ssh and a VNC Client will work. It is recommended to download VS Code IDE with the QNX Toolkit and a VNC Client in advance. Download links will be sent by email upon registration confirmation by a QNX representative.
This is an in-person event; there will be no options for remote dial-in to attend. Complimentary day parking and lunch will be provided.
