About the Workshop: Android is an open-source software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware

and key applications. Android's mobile operating system is based on a modified version of the Linux kernel. Android has a large community of developers writing application programs ("apps") that extend the functionality of the devices. There are currently over 150,000 apps available for Android. "Android" as a mobile device operating system, wonder no more because its really an operating system for robots. The technology inside the robot is a proof of concept for the openness and flexibility of Google mobile OS.
