Definition Embedded Operating Systems
An embedded operating system (OS) is a customized operating system (OS) built for a device that is not a computer to accomplish a specific purpose. It is a specific function inside a broader mechanical or electrical system that is made up of a computer processor, computer memory, and input/output peripheral devices.
Embedded operating systems are frequently used within embedded systems. In the larger machine, it completes one duty. Some example includes computer systems in automobiles, traffic lights, digital televisions, ATMs, airline controls, point-of-sale (POS) terminals, digital cameras, GPS navigation systems, elevators, and smart meters.
An embedded OS' primary function is to run the code that allows the device to function. The embedded OS also allows applications running on top of the OS to access the device's hardware.
The embedded operating system guarantees that the embedded system runs efficiently and reliably by managing hardware and software resources and providing an abstraction layer to make the development of higher layers of software easier.
There are several types of operating system embedded which include single system control loop, multi-tasking operating system, rate monotonic operating system, preemptive operating system, and others.
These embedded operating systems are often applied in automotive, consumer electronics, industrial, aerospace and defense, energy, healthcare, communication, and others.
Most automobiles, appliances, and portable gadgets in today's digital age require embedded operating systems to regulate functionality and perform tasks efficiently. An embedded OS handles all programmable and fixed hardware processes, rather than operating each portion of the system separately. As a result of this increasing need, the demand for the embedded operating system is increasing.
Analyst Conclusion
The Global Embedded Operating Systems Market revenue in 2016: USD 10,812.34 Million
Multi-Tasking Operating System accounted for largest share of total revenue generated in 2019
Communication held maximum share of Embedded Operating Systems market in 2019
Wide array of applications associated with embedded operating system across various sectors and rising market for electric vehicles drives the growth of embedded operating system market.
Rising use of non-embedded operating system may hamper the growth of embedded operating system market.
Improvement in healthcare infrastructure especially in emerging nations will propel the growth of embedded operating system in the following years.
