Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications.

Android is a mobile operating system running on the Linux kernel. It was initially developed by Android Inc., a firm later purchased by Google, and lately by the Open Handset Alliance. It allows developers to write managed code in the Java language, controlling the device via Google-developed Java libraries.

The Android SDK provides the tools and APIs necessary to begin developing applications that run on Android-powered devices. Cool apps that surprise and delight mobile users—built by developers like you—are a huge part of the Android vision. Google has also participated in the Android Market by offering several applications for its services. These applications include Google Voice for the Google Voice service, Scoreboard for following sports, Sky Map for watching stars, Finance for their finance service, Maps Editor for their MyMaps service, Places Directory for their Local Search, Google Goggles that searches by image, and My Tracks, a jogging application. Android phones that include the 'Google Experience' also have Google Search, Google Calendar, Google Maps, Google Navigation and Gmail integrated. In this presentation we will explore many examples of android.
