Google A Google wants to take to another level its operating system that we all know as Android, because in the next wave of smart devices will be launching a version called Android Things, which can run on products such as connected speakers or security cameras.
For businesses, working with this operating system will be much easier when starting to ship hardware, because Android is something that many already know and know how to manage.
Android Things is a new name, but the operating system itself is not strictly new. It’s basically an update for Smart Devices and Internet Products of the Things, or by its abbreviations in English, IoT.
According to Google, things can be done with the same development tools as the Android standard. The idea is for experienced developers to be able to quickly catch up to work on a new product.
With Android Things, smart devices will be able to perform and handle complex tasks on their own without the need to download them from a server for processing; Therefore, what Google wants to do is a better fit for devices like printers, locks, ovens, etc.
However, we must clarify that Android Things will not be a method to connect smart products to Android smartphones, although the smart devices themselves will be able to integrate with the Android and iOS devices through Weave, Google’s cloud platform.
There is no doubt that the Internet of Things is still taking its first steps so that in the future we can interact with all kinds of devices in our homes.
The company said that in the coming months, preview updates will be offered to provide operating system fixes, security patches and updatesnd Its Plan To Bring Android To The Internet Of Things
