3.2 Software

The software for the product consists of:


Supplier: Booter (or Boot loader) to start Linux

Supplier: Linux distribution (full source code, makefiles, build scripts etc.)

Supplier: software for testing basic board functions + approbation software

Philips: hue bridge applications

Philips: software image for ZigBee SoC
For a final product Philips will build the software image for both SoCs. In order to do so
the Linux distribution for the router SoC is to be provided to Philips for application
development. The relevant peripherals should be fully supported by the Linux
distribution. All supplier provided software shall be based on open source from a
known contemporary Linux distribution for routers (OpenWRT 14.07). Philips should
be able to build the software images for booter, Linux, root file system, and so on. All
licenses shall be reported.
Part of the hue bridge application will be Apple HomeKit support, which requires
access to the Apple Authentication IC. Support for this shall be via a supplier provided
driver; connection via I2C.
The image below shows software blocks for the router SoC.
