QNX® Software Systems has long been considered a pioneer in the telematics industry. In fact, the QNX Neutrino RTOS was originally selected by leading suppliers for its hard real-time responsiveness and life-critical reliability. We are now regarded as the definitive leader in advanced gateways and are in multiple production models from these same suppliers.

Based on our understanding of the contradictory demands for increased functionality and reduced price points, we continue to take telematics to the next level with innovative technologies such as Adaptive Partitioning, BOM-saving solutions such as Instant Device Activation, and important partnerships with companies such as SiRF for GPS support.
