Yesterday at Computex, the Microsoft Windows Embedded team announced the availability of the latest version of Windows Embedded CE – officially known Windows Embedded Compact 7. The release is a Community Technology Preview (CTP) which is a fancy way to say public beta. The CTP can be downloaded from the Microsoft website.
Windows Embedded Compact 7 includes a list of cool features to help OEMs develop smart, connected, service oriented devices with custom user-interfaces. But, if you take a closer at the code you’ll notice an engineering investment and significant improvement – Compact 7 now includes support for more ARM architectures including ARMv7, ARMv7 NEON™ and SMP.
The added ARM architectures provide OEMs working with Windows Embedded competitive performance in the segments proliferated by ARM and our ARM Partners – Auto, Mobile, Consumer and Home.
Several ARM silicon Partners are already their support for the Windows Embedded Compact 7 CTP
