Get Started with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise Using ROM-5720, an Arm-based Computer-on-Module
1. Introduction
A report from Arm and Microsoft, which surveyed developer attitudes about Windows on Arm, indicates that 81% of developers expect the Windows on Arm (WoA) market to grow in the next five years. Analogously, Advantech seeks to deliver the enormous potential of WoA to our customers. Accordingly, the Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC on NXP i.MX 8M is now available on Advantech’s ROM-5720 (click to find software release notes).
This article describes the collaboration between Microsoft, NXP, and Advantech; and their efforts to make installing Windows 10 on Arm as streamlined as possible.
