'''TinyOS''' is an embedded, component-based [[operating system]] and platform for low-power wireless devices, such as those used in [[wireless sensor network]]s (WSNs), [[smartdust]], [[ubiquitous computing]], [[personal area network]]s, [[building automation]], and [[smart meter]]s. It is written in the [[programming language]] nesC, as a set of cooperating tasks and processes. It began as a collaboration between the [[University of California, Berkeley]], [[Intel Research]], and [[Crossbow Technology]], was released as [[free and open-source software]] under a [[BSD licenses|BSD license]], and has since grown into an international consortium, the [[TinyOS Alliance]].

TinyOS has been used in space, being implemented in [[ESTCube-1]].
