# Reference Software Platform - Legacy
<a href="http://connect.linaro.org/resource/sfo15/sfo15-104-the-96boards-software-reference-platform/" target="_blank"><img align="right" src="http://i.imgur.com/UzmaWUD.png" data-canonical-src="http://i.imgur.com/UzmaWUD.png" width="300" height="200" /></a>
The Consumer Reference Platform aims to enable the latest software on a series of embedded hardware platforms. Open source boot firmware and a unified Linux kernel delivers an excellent starting point for your next embedded product. High level components such as ROS, and a standard GPIO library are included to help accelerate robotic enthusiasts and makers. The consumer software stack provides two builds based on Debian and OpenEmbedded. A graphic user interface is included for each variant, and both are validated to ensure quality and a great user experience.
The Reference Software Platform Lead Project is part of the Linaro 96Boards initiative. The project's goal is to deliver Linaro output for ARM SoCs using 96Boards products. Use cases range from the Embedded to the Enterprise segments. Releases may contain bootloader, kernel, distribution and/or user level middleware/applications. Loadable software for 96Boards products, reference source code, hardware dependencies including porting tips for other SoCs, configurations chosen for the reference builds, and ample documentation will also be included with every release.
For more information about the Reference Software Platform project please watch this video from Linaro Connect (SFO15)
