The following are improvements in functionalities, optimization, documentation, and fixes and patches:
Improvements
Functionalities
- With serial tty0 display redirection, you can now do a headless installation of the Edge Microvisor Toolkit Developer Node.
- With USB passthrough, you can now attach a USB device directly to the virtual machine, which improves the audio and video performance.
- Enabled industrial-related packages for manufacturing and real-time use cases in the Edge Microvisor Toolkit Developer Node.
- Included all OS dependencies required for Deep Learning Streamer.
- Added additional packages to support platform validation for embedded, industrial, networking, and communications-focused platforms.
- Extended Edge Microvisor Toolkit support for in-market embedded, industrial, networking, and communications-focused platforms:
- Intel® Core™ processor platforms: Arrow Lake U/H/S, Meteor Lake U/H/PS, Bartlett Lake-S Hybrid
- Intel Atom® platforms: Twin Lake
- Updated the Edge Microvisor Toolkit Standalone Node's observability, telemetry, and manageability edge node agents to newer versions, to align with recent ecosystem and backend requirements.
- Enhanced the add_custom_package script.
- Included the iwlwifi support for Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 (Gig+) IOT Industrial Kit, Jefferson Peak, and Thunder Peak in Edge Microvisor Toolkit's Linux image.
Optimization
- Optimized the boot time to reduce the start-up latency on supported platforms.
Documentation
