Introduction

This chapter explains how to develop software for RSB-4710 to enable users to
develop unique applications efficiently.
RSB-4710 is designed be developed in a Linux host environment. For now, the offi-
cially supported host OS is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (64 bit). Compatibility problems may
occur when using a Windows or Android environment for application development.
Therefore, we strongly recommend installing Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (64 bit) on your host
PC before attempting to develop RSB-4710.
However, RSB-4710 itself supports the Android 7.1 and Linux Debian OS.
