Carsten then delves into the topic of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and the battle for open-source RTOS. He explains the difference between a real-time operating system and a high-end operating system and how the introduction of the internet into embedded devices has increased the need for RTOS. He also discusses the consolidation happening in the industry with the acquisition of RTOS by big tech companies.
