Google does not intend to let the heart of the potential market of objects connected to the competition, he said he was working on a project for a OS dedicated to the Internet of Things, named Brillo.

The code name of the project is therefore Brillo and there is no doubt that after standing over the mobile sector with Android OS, the Mountain View company will reiterate with Brillo for the Internet of Things, of provided that this OS is built around Android kernel.
Google to conquer the Internet of Things
So far Google's strategy was to make Android compatible with all connected devices, but it seems that in reality the Mountain View company secretly working on another project, which nevertheless finds its source in the Android code . The US giant is reportedly developing an operating system only dedicated to the Internet of Things, so probably the OS itself as leader in this sector.
Brillo is his code name, has been designed to use less energy, to allow objects connected not to waste their battery unnecessarily but also to rotate with the minimum RAM (between 32 and 64MB ). Google has never hidden his interest in connected devices and could also even prepare a vast offensive in this sector, as a reminder he bought many companies in the sector, like Nest in January 2014, Dropcam in June 2014 or to Revoly in October 2014.
Brillo could therefore eventually equip the connected products of all these companies, bringing other manufacturers to follow the same path very quickly to take advantage of future applications and the OS compatibilities with other devices.
A war is about to break out in the area of IoT.
Google is not alone in this decisive battle, that's probably why he accelerates the pace in this potentially very lucrative and still nascent market. In 2009, we recorded 900 million connected devices, low predictions for 2020 are 26 billion connected objects ... However, Brillo will face other OS under development as TinyOS, Contiki, although Samsung Tizen is far from ready he deserves to exist, Intel is working on VxWorks, Microsoft develops Windows 10 IoT Core, ARM has developed mbed its OS OS, and others are following this path.
Everyone is in the starting block and war promises to be very tough to impose its operating system on the market, where at least seize significant shares of the cake!
