Problem
Equipment manufacturers developing Linux-based embedded devices often lack the specialized tools and expertise needed to build robust, secure systems. This forces them to either outsource development—losing control and ownership over their code—or invest significant time and resources into building infrastructure from scratch, while also managing growing cybersecurity threats and software obsolescence risks.
Solution
The Embedded Kit provides a suite of production-ready software products that cover the entire embedded device lifecycle, from initial build to long-term maintenance. The platform includes Welma, a production-ready Yocto-based Linux distribution with DevOps tooling; Kamea, an IoT device management solution for secure connectivity, monitoring, and over-the-air updates; Pluma, an automated hardware and software testing tool; and CVE Scan, a vulnerability detection and management system. All solutions are delivered with full source code access, enabling device makers to maintain complete ownership and avoid vendor lock-in while benefiting from 20+ years of embedded engineering best practices.
Target Audience
Primary customers are equipment manufacturers and R&D engineering teams building Linux-based embedded devices who need to maintain control over their software while reducing development time and ensuring security and compliance.
