There is still quite a lot of work to be done on the maker Windows 10 IoT Core in implementing further features, optimisation and bug fixing. There's a fun video embedded below, demonstrating an Air Hockey playing robot system. Some examples are given of projects completed so far such as home automation, and robot rovers. It says that its IoT Core and developer tools "make it easy to build projects that are fun and cool, as well as those that have very practical uses in the real world".

Microsoft seems to be trying to motivate people to develop for Windows 10 on IoT devices for both "fun and profit". Microsoft adds that it has worked closely with Arduino "to make it very easy to talk to Arduino boards from Windows and even for Arduinos to talk to Windows devices as if they were virtual shields." Other key improvements include improved support for Python and Node.js, up to 10x GPIO performance improvement on the RasPi 2, support for ADC and PWM audio.īoth the Raspberry Pi 2, based upon the ARM Cortex-A7 based SoC and MinnowBoard Max based on the Intel Atom E38xx series SoC have specific OS downloads available. Microsoft released the first beta of Windows 10 IoT Core at BUILD earlier in the year but with this official public release it has implemented important upgrades to the OS, most significantly Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communications. There is no Windowed interface or desktop for IoT device users, instead you use a Windows 10 PC with Visual Studio 2015 and tools to create a universal app which will function as the interface for your maker device. Windows 10 IoT Core is a light version of the OS which can even run on a device without a display. Windows 10 IoT Core is a free download but you will need an accompanying development system with Windows 10, Visual Studio 2015 and tools to get up and running. The new OS is a software thrust into Internet of Things (IoT) territory to help Microsoft accelerate its goal of having Windows 10 on a billion devices by 2017. Microsoft has publically released Windows 10 IoT Core for the Raspberry Pi 2 and the MinnowBoard Max.
