-Venus OS is the Victron Energy Unix like distro with a linux kernel. Its the heart of our [[https://www.victronenergy.com/panel-systems-remote-monitoring/color-control|Color Control GX]] and [[https://www.victronenergy.com/panel-systems-remote-monitoring/venus-gx|Venus GX]] two very successful central and remote monitoring systems.
+Venus OS is the Victron Energy Unix like distro with a linux kernel. Its the software that runs on our of our [[venus-os:start|GX Product range]]: central and remote monitoring systems.
 While being a very successful project for us in its standard configuration, the Venus OS, and compatible hardware platforms can also be the perfect platform for many other projects. Such as:

+Signal K is a modern and open data format for marine use. Built on standard web technologies including JSON, WebSockets and HTTP, Signal K provides a method for sharing information independently of the underlying communications protocol (e.g. NMEA0183, NMEA2000, SeaTalk, I2C, 1-Wire, ZigBee, etc) in a way that is friendly to WiFi, cellphones, tablets, and the Internet.
