Bof: Zephyr Community in Japan: From Hobbyist To Automotive, Roboti...
Talkat Open Source Summit Japan + AI_dev: Open Source GenAI & ML Summit + Automotive Linux Summit 2025 · 2025-12-08..12-10·
summary
Zephyr community in Japan reports rapid growth with ~30-person meetups in Sapporo and Osaka and corporate backing from Honda and Renesas; Zephyr 4.3 ships a renewed USB device stack, CPU load and dynamic frequency scaling, an OCPP 1.6 EV charging library and a DT doctor for device-tree diagnostics. Micro-ROS integration on Zephyr is demonstrated, debates around DDS vs. Zeno interoperability and Zeno Pico size vs. Zephyr constraints continue, and a bulky Fukushima decommission robot runs Zephyr across ~14 nodes communicating with a host.
