RIOT Description
RIOT powers Internet of Things, just like Linux powers the Internet. RIOT is a free and open-source operating system that was developed by a community of companies, academics, and hobbyists. It is distributed around the globe. RIOT supports all low-power IoT devices and microcontroller architectures (32, 16-bits, 8-bit) as well as external devices. RIOT aims at implementing all relevant open standards supporting an Internet of Things which is connected, secure and durable. RIOT supports DTLS transport security, IEEE 802.15.4 encryption and Secure Firmware Updates. RIOT can be easily modified to meet your application needs. We support all Internet standards and network technologies. RIOT is open for new developments and is often an early adaptor of networking.

TinyOS
TinyOS is an open-source, BSD-licensed operating platform designed for low-power wireless devices such as those used in sensor networks and ubiquitous computing, personal area networks (smart buildings), smart meters, and smart buildings. The operating system is used by a worldwide community of professionals and academics to develop and support it. It receives an average of 35,000 downloads per year. The transition to hosting at GitHub has been completed. This transition includes gradually retiring TinyOS development mailing list for bug tracking and issues to use the GitHub trackers. Many thanks to all the developers who are improving TinyOS and asking for pulls!

Android Things
Android Things allows you to experiment with building devices on trusted platforms without any prior knowledge of embedded system design. You can use the Android SDK or Android Studio to develop, and access hardware like displays and cameras natively via the Android framework. The Android Things Console is used for security updates and push-over-the-air features. Android Things allows you to create apps on top popular hardware platforms such as the Raspberry Pi 3. Google manages the Board Support Package (BSP). This means that no kernel or firmware development is necessary. Through the Android Things Console, software images are created and delivered to devices. This provides a trusted platform for developers to continue developing with standard updates from Google.
