inovex GmbH and Navimatix GmbH are jointly organizing a conference focused on Zephyr in Science and Education at the Abbe Center of Photonics in Jena, Germany, which is the academic center of scientific activities in the fields of optics and photonics at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena, on Sep 23 and 24, 2025.
By organizing the conference, inovex GmbH and Navimatix GmbH want to raise awareness of RTOS and promote it in academic environments. In the coming years, students will introduce the technology to scientific institutions and commercial enterprises, which will hopefully lead to its further dissemination.
Conference Goals at a Glance:
- Expand the use of Zephyr in academic curricula
- Integrate Zephyr into research and scientific projects
- Highlight and present use cases where Zephyr is used in scientific research
- Connect educators to share teaching strategies and training approaches
- Facilitate knowledge exchange on didactic methods in embedded systems education
