Building a Rich UI Based Dual Display Video Player with the Freescale i.MX53 using LinuxLink – Part 1  Favorite


In session one, attendees will assemble a full development environment and learn how to quickly create a BusyBox-based, small footprint, custom Linux platform. The session will address application developers' needs by helping them jumpstart development with cross-compilation tools including GCC, glibc, libraries and utilities such as GDB — with or without any embedded Linux knowledge. System engineers will learn how to design and quickly create a custom Linux platform with selected APIs — without having to endure a lengthy development process.

Hands-On Exercises will include: working with the embedded Linux-based product design process, building a custom BSP and SDK , and deploying Linux on the Freescale i.MX53QSB platform

This training is performed by Timesys, a Freescale Alliance Partner.
