Building Brillo-iant devices with Weave for a Connected world

Google's Brillo and Weave platforms, introduced at Google I/O, offer a comprehensive solution for developing connected devices, with Brillo providing a lightweight embedded operating system based on Android and Weave facilitating communication between devices. Brillo enables rapid development from prototype to production, supporting over-the-air updates, metrics, and crash reporting. Weave allows devices to communicate both locally and remotely via the cloud, offering a secure messaging service and integration with mobile SDKs for iOS and Android. Both platforms are designed to be open, extensible, and secure, supporting a range of devices and use cases. Google also introduced a Weave compatibility program and a hardware initiative for silicon vendors, inviting developers to join their invite program for access to code, documentation, and a developer console, aiming to enhance the Internet of Things collaboratively.
