On June 30, 2026 at 8:00 am PT (11:00 ET), Peridio, NXP and ipXchange will present the webinar “The Engineer’s Guide to Simplifying Embedded Linux Development: Building with Avocado OS on i.MX Applications Processor.” Here’s the description, from the event registration page:
The demand for AI-enabled edge devices – including robotics, smart vision systems, and other sensor-driven devices – is rapidly growing. For many teams, however, building and maintaining custom embedded Linux distributions can still be slow and difficult. Using traditional platforms such as Yocto, many engineers face a steep learning curve, forcing them to spend more time wrestling with infrastructure than building applications.
How do embedded teams build AI-enabled products faster without being buried in Linux infrastructure complexity?
In this technical session, Peridio, NXP, and ipXchange will show how you can use Avocado OS to streamline the path to production. We will cover how to reduce Yocto overhead, managing builds across multiple hardware targets, and running AI applications reliably on embedded Linux.
We will also show a live demonstration of Avocado OS running a computer vision application on NXP i.MX 8M Plus – showing you how easy it is to deploy and port applications across hardware targets.
What you’ll learn:
-
- How Avocado OS reduces Yocto complexity and provides a user-friendly developer experience.
- Easily support multiple hardware targets without the need for any containers.
- How NXP’s i.MX portfolio supports scalable edge AI applications throughout a product’s lifecycle.
- A live demo of Avocado OS running a computer vision reference on an NXP 8M Plus, with seamless OTA support.
