The operating system for innovative and small footprint devices.
Microsoft Windows CE integrates reliable, real-time capabilities with advanced Windows technologies to rapidly build a wide range of innovative, small print footprint devices.
With core operating system components and powerful development and testing tools, Windows CE provides embedded developers with a unified set of tools to build, debug and deploy customised Windows CE based devices.
Windows CE 6.0, the predecessor of Windows CE 5.0, provides a 32-bit native hard real-time, small footprint operating system, a redesigned kernel and powerful embedded development tools. CE 6.0 interoperates with industry standards and exisiting Microsoft desktop and server technologies to help you create differentiated devices for a broad range of device categories, from commerial devices to consumer electronics products.
With a new, redesigned kernel CE 6.0 can incorporate a larger number of more complex applications.
