Wiztech Automation Solutions,  provides comprehensive RTOS training designed to equip
professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to implement Real-Time Operating Systems in
embedded applications. Our expert-led training focuses on FreeRTOS and STM32 MCUs, enabling learners
to develop efficient, real-time embedded solutions.

What is
RTOS (Real-Time Operating System)?

An RTOS (Real-Time Operating
System) is a specialized operating system designed to manage
hardware resources and run multiple tasks concurrently in real-time. Unlike
general-purpose operating systems, RTOS ensures that critical tasks are
executed within a guaranteed timeframe, making it ideal for systems that
require high reliability and predictability. FreeRTOS,
one of the most popular open-source RTOS, is widely used in embedded systems to
manage tasks, synchronize hardware components, and optimize system performance.
