About Skewworks

Skewworks began as a personal project for Thomas W. Holtquist and quickly evolved into a small company serving Mircosoft®© based solutions.

We started off with a small OS for the Arduino called Pyxis which featured a virtual CPU and custom compiler that allowed users to run multiple applications without having to re-flash the chip. Quickly gaining popularity, Pyxis was featured on sites like MakeZine and Engadget and even the Arduino Blog.

The original version was received so well we released a brand new version for .NET Micro Framework devices called Pyxis 2. Like is predecessor Pyxis 2 had the ability to run multiple applications without having to re-flash. It also boasted touch-screen support, faster speeds and a better user interface. Once again we were overwhelmed by the response; being featured on Microsoft, Engadget, and Hack A Day.

Today we're on the 3rd version, now called Gadgetos; which offers users the ability to load hardware drivers on-the-fly. We're even developing a game engine!
