The new kit will be an upgrade from Versalogic having generally been know to produce mostly Linux, and sometimes Windows-based single board computers like theĀ Zebra SBC, SandCat, or theĀ Tetra SBC. VersaLogicā€™s new Android Eval Kit provides an easy way to evaluateĀ Arm/AndroidĀ performance and includes everything needed to run the Android OS on a high-reliability embedded system.

The ā€œAndroid Eval Kitā€ is based on the oldĀ NXP i.MX6Ā that powers both the Tetra andĀ Zebra SBCĀ but comes with a notableĀ 7-inchĀ HDMI 1024 x 600 touchscreen, adapters, hubs and basically everything to make you kickstart your Android experiences. It is pre-loaded with Android 8.0. There are no needs for additional carrier cards, companion boards or other add-ons, itā€™s just a full fledge SBC, think about it as Raspberry PI that supports Android.

The kit is basically aĀ Tetra Single Board ComputerĀ (SBC) with aĀ Quad-core i.MX6Ā ā€“ 7ā€³ display with touch screen. Android Oreo is loaded on the accompanying microSD card, so need to worry about installing or downloading the OS. Also, you will get a wall power adapter, USB hub, startup guide, and all required cables.

Considering the kit is based on the Tetra SBC, it is expected to have a similar footprint of 125 x 95mm, that also matches the COM Express basic computer-on-module specification. Due to i.MX6 processor, power consumption is relatively low, something around 5 Watts.
