Use case: Integration of open-source intercom solutions in public places (schools, hospitals, town halls, etc.)
2025-06-17 , Main stage

In the context of digital sovereignty and interoperability, open-source solutions for embedded systems, especially intercoms, provide an alternative to proprietary systems. Liblinphone enables secure communications, while Linhome allows remote control of intercoms.

The city of Échirolles, a pioneer in open-source software, is deploying our technology in a school to modernize and secure intercom systems. This session will share their feedback, challenges, and the potential for adoption in other public infrastructures.
