TechInsights' ESC Boston 'Build Your Own Embedded System' Sessions to Feature Windows 7
Technology for Specialized Devices & Intel(R) Atom(TM) Processor
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 26 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Hands-on Seminars and Design Kit Give Electronics System Developers Unprecedented Access to Leading-
edge Technologies and Implementation Expertise
TechInsights today announced the details of the "Build Your Own Embedded System" (BYOES) seminars being
MA. For the first time in electronics industry history, systems developers attending BYOES seminars will take home
a custom-configured "design kit" based on Microsoft's newest Windows 7-based operating system, Windows
Embedded Standard 2011, and the Intel(R) Atom(TM) processor. "Never before have embedded system
developers been given this level of expert design guidance and access to the industry's leading development
technologies," said David Blaza, TechInsights' vice president of Events. "ESC Boston's BYOES track sessions will
provide the foundation expected to kick-start many exciting electronic product developments because engineers
will take home their configured design kit that they can deploy immediately for their own specific application.
Attendees will also be among the first to develop using Windows 7 technologies for specialized devices."
Popular with electronics designers from around the word, TechInsights' BYOES sessions typically have 100
attendees and multiple expert instructors who answer questions in real-time while attendees gain hands-on
experience. Unlike other industry seminars in which attendees must take detailed notes and attempt to recreate
what has been learned in their home environments, each BYOES attendee leaves with an embedded system
design kit that is pre-designed for his or her application.
"We are pleased to join TechInsights and Intel during ESC Boston's 'Build Your Own Embedded System'
seminars by providing attendees with access to the advanced Windows 7-based features and functionality of
Windows Embedded Standard 2011," said Ilya Bukshteyn, senior director of Windows Embedded Marketing at
Microsoft. "Windows Embedded delivers the power of Windows to specialized devices, and we are excited to help
fuel innovation among developers as they create next-generation, connected devices with rich user experiences."
Included in ESC Boston's All Access with Hardware pass and available for purchase for $199 with a 3-day pass
or $399 with all other event conference packages, the TechInsights' ESC Boston BYOES design kit features
include:
- General purpose application applicable to most embedded system designs
- Low-power, fanless design appropriate for mobile applications
- Windows Embedded Standard 2011 operating system delivering the power of Windows 7 to specialized
devices
- The Intel(R) Atom(TM) processor built for low power and designed specifically for a new wave of Consumer
Internet Devices (CIDs) that combine the innovation of next generation software and the power of the Internet, such
as portable navigation devices (PNDs), portable media players (PMPs), set-top boxes (STBs) and networked TVs
