Founded in 1987 and located in Ottawa, Canada, Tilcon currently has 18 employees and is focused on embedded graphics solutions. With this acquisition, Wind River expects to gain proprietary embedded graphical user interfaces that will enhance the value of VxWorks and Wind River Linux software platforms across multiple device types and target vertical markets. Under the terms of the agreement, Wind River will pay approximately USD $3.5 million in cash to acquire all outstanding capital stock of Tilcon.
