Lucas Pillman,
Product Manager @ Dr Dish

Update Factory allows Dr. Dish to monitor and upgrade our basketball rebounding machine in the field. We can launch new products at a rapid rate because we can fix any software issue that comes up with a simple software update.

Embedded OS Updates must be Atomic

With a tightly built update procedure, devices can sustain abrupt power failures with a success-or-fail approach.

  • Single copy update system for embedded devices with low eMMC footprint
    • Recovery OS (single copy) to safely update kernel and user-space system, available for both Android and Linux
  • Double copy (A/B) on higher end devices with larger eMMC footprint
    • Secure and easy rollback option
  • Signed Updates for enhanced security
  • Possibility to update critical devices locally by USB removable media
