BlackBerry Announces Free Accessibility to QNX Operating System for Non-commercial Use, Compatible with Raspberry Pi

BlackBerry has made a bold move by offering their QNX operating system for free, as long as it is not used for commercial purposes. This is ideal for those interested in experimenting or using it for personal projects.

QNX is a real-time, small-scale operating system commonly found in embedded devices and cars. Acquired by BlackBerry in 2010, it was intended to serve as the backbone of the BlackBerry 10 operating system for smartphones. Despite the smartphone plans falling through, QNX’s original customer base, particularly in the automotive industry, remains strong.

BlackBerry’s latest initiative, QNX Everywhere, allows the general public to download and use QNX version 8.0 for free. Examples of its usage include running on popular hardware like the Raspberry Pi. QNX has also ported various open-source software like numpy, lighttpd, pytorch, and tensorflow lite for use on their platform, available for download on Gitlab or GitHub.

TLDR: Upgrade your QNX version for non-commercial projects with a free license, download QNX OS 8.0 for a quick-start on Raspberry Pi 4. Start exploring today! #RaspberryPi #BlackBerryQNX
