Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is taking off in just about every market. Robotic arms, motion controllers, and vehicles all need both time sync (coordinated events) and timeliness (timely events) to improve existing real-time capabilities. Combining TSN with the real-time behavior of the VxWorks operating system allows developers to design distributed and deterministic networks with real-time control systems. Join us for a demonstration and live QA with our expert Andrei Kholodnyi. He will show you how to run a TSN application on VxWorks as a KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) guest in parallel with the best-effort Linux OS on the same system-on-chip (SoC). We will feature the control functionality on the embedded device, decoupling it from the sensing and actuation functionality and moving it to the intelligent edge.

What you will learn:

  • Why a separation of control from sensor and actuation functionality matters for the intelligent edge solution
  • Why TSN and RTOS are essential parts of the intelligent edge story
  • How to properly configure TSN, Linux, and VxWorks KVM guest to do the job
