DrideOS is a specific customization of Raspbian "Jessie" built to run on the Dride & Dride Zero dashcams. This is a Debian Linux
deriviative hosting common features you would find on any Linux computer.
There is no desktop/GUI support provided for this device type.
Support is included for these common programming languages/platforms:
Node JS v8.9.0
Python 2.7
The goal of drideOS is to build an open alternative for dashcam softwere so it could be easly implemented by both manufacturers and developers.
Raspbian has been customized for specific use and named drideOS. The system architecture involves specific kernel modules, daemons, RESTful API' and watchdogs' to ensure an always available system with access from a remote device.
