Android Things is an extension of the Android platform for building IoT and embedded devices. It provides APIs, resources, and a developer community for creating products using supported developer kits like the Intel Edison, Intel Joule, and Raspberry Pi 3. The Android Things console allows developers and manufacturers to manage system images, OTA updates, and app bundles for their devices. Sample projects provide ideas for using Android Things to create things like a piano hero game, word clock, and smart mirror.
