Google officially starts Fuchsia OS testing

Google has spent a lot of time developing the Fuchsia operating system from scratch, and now it can finally run on Google’s own devices (the original Nest Hub). 9to5Google reported that, like the previous “Cast OS” based on the Linux kernel, this update will not bring any feature updates to the Nest Hub, which was first released in 2018. The main reason is that the experience of this smart display is based on Flutter, which aims to bring applications to multiple platforms including Fuchsia.

Since 2016, 9to5Google has been tracking the development of the Fuchsia project. From the ambitious experimental user interface (UI) to Google testing and running on much internal hardware, including the entire product line of Google’s smart home and Chromebook. After years of stumbling, the Fuchsia operating system project has gradually stabilized, and recently there has even been a stable release plan.

For example, at the beginning of the month, we discovered that the original Google Nest Hub running Fuchsia version 1.0 had received new approval from the Bluetooth Alliance, indicating that Google has expanded from internal testing to a wider public domain.

At that time, we thought it could be a way for developers to easily and easily try a new operating system, but as the I/O 2021 conference comes to an end, we know that Google is still making more ambitious new plans.

It is reported that the Nest Hub update based on Fuchsia will be launched in the next few months. The first is to preview the update channel, and then the wider push. Considering that the system interface and interactive experience have not changed, many Nest Hub users will not even notice that their devices have switched to Fuchsia OS.
