Introduction

Warning: The Windows 10 IoT Core Starter Kit is not up to date anymore. For the information about Toradex plans for Windows 10 IoT Core please see Toradex Windows 10 IoT Core (Pro) Strategy

The WinIoT Starter Kit offers a preview of Windows 10 IoT Core on the Colibri T30 featuring the Nvidia Tegra 3 SoC. The highlights of this kit are fully accelerated DirectX graphics and a HW platform which is proven in many industrial applications. The software is in an early stage.
