This article is a beginner’s introduction to creating native (NDK based) Android* applications for Intel® architecture (IA) based devices, and also includes simple use cases for porting existing NDK based apps to IA based devices.
The SDK includes tools and platform components for developers to build, test, and debug their Android* applications, and manage the Android* platform component installation. The SDK also provides easy ways to integrate with the build and development environments, for examples, with Eclipse* or Apache Ant*.
Use this x86 emulator system image with the Android SDK to test your Android apps on a virtual Intel Architecture-based device.
Use this x86 emulator image add-on with the Android SDK to test your Android applications on a virtual Intel Architecture-based phone device.
This hardware-assisted virtualization engine uses Intel® Virtualization Technology to speed up Android app emulation on a host machine.
The Intel USB Driver package enables you to connect your Windows* based machine to your Android device that contains an Intel Atom processor inside.
