QNX Hypervisor 8.0, now available, enables safe, certified consolidation of critical systems in cars, medical devices, and robotics.

QNX Hypervisor 8.0 for Safety, now generally available, is a safety-certified virtualization platform for automotive, medical, industrial, and robotics systems. It meets top safety standards including ISO 26262 ASIL D, IEC 61508 SIL 4, and IEC 62304 Class C, using a real-time microkernel to ensure deterministic performance and fault isolation. The hypervisor runs multiple operating systems—QNX, Linux, and Android—on one hardware platform, enabling consolidation of mixed-criticality workloads. It combines Type 1 performance with Type 2 flexibility, accelerating development and certification. Major automakers and healthcare providers are adopting it to modernize systems and improve predictability. QNX, owned by BlackBerry, powers over 275 million vehicles and critical infrastructure worldwide.
