Qualcomm Adopts RISC-V for Next-Gen Snapdragon Wear Platform
Qualcomm and Google are expanding their partnership to develop a Snapdragon Wear platform based on the RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) designed for next-generation Wear OS products.
The announcement by the two high-tech giants means that Qualcomm will work on RISC-V-based hardware for wearable devices, whereas Google will work on software for these applications. In general, this means that the two companies are collaboratively developing a RISC-V platform for wearable devices — for smartwatches initially, but perhaps for something more advanced going forward.
