Windows 7 for Embedded Systems

Windows Embedded Enterprise powers dedicated embedded devices that require Windows application compatibility and the flexibility to deploy a custom user interface. When footprint size is not an issue, developers use Windows for Embedded Enterprise for its visual and differentiated user interfaces, connectivity capabilities, and reliability in building secure applications. In 2009, Windows 7 for Embedded Systems was released and in 2011 the first Service Pack was released. It also provides two product choices: Windows 7 Professional SP1 for Embedded Systems and Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 for Embedded Systems.
