Keynote: Overcoming Challenges in Embedded OSS Development
summary
Sony shares that a recent lunar project used Qualcomm mobile phone CPU and off‑the‑shelf sensors from SparkFun on a rover, and small CubeSats operate with about 0.5 W from solar arrays. Linux tools like gzip on Ingenuity solved unexpected log and data problems, while the XZ backdoor was found by an outsider. Recommendations are concrete: join and report real usage on project mailing lists, avoid unnecessary hardware specialization, contribute generalizing patches, and partner with adjacent communities (security, cloud, mobile) on shared constraints.
