New Smartwatch OS Debuts on GitHub
Can a new smartwatch operating system based on Linux breathe some new life into the smart wearables market? Florent Revest hopes so.
Revest, a French computer science student, on Wednesday announced the alpha release of AsteroidOS, an open source operating system that will run on several Android smartwatch models.
"Many users believe that the current proprietary platforms can not guarantee a satisfactory level of control over their privacy and hardware," noted Revest, who has been working on his OS for two years. "Hence, I noticed a need for an open wearable platform and AsteroidOS is my attempt to address this issue."
