A LynxOS RTOS occurs as Unix-like real-time operating system from LynuxWorks (formerly "Lynx Real-Time Systems"). Periodically called a Lynx Operating Models, LynxOS features POSIX compliance and, further recently, Linux compatibility. LynxOS is mostly utilized around embedded systems in applications for avionics, aerospace, the armed forces, industrial process control and telecommunications.

A foremost versions of LynxOS were written withinside 1986 in Dallas, Texas and targeted a custom-made-to-order Motorola 68010 processor. Around 1988-1989, LynxOS was ported to the Intel 80386 architecture. Around 1989, ABI compatibility with SVR3 was added. Compatibility using more operating systems, including Linux, followed. ARM and PowerPC architectures are as well supported.

Inside 2003, LynuxWorks introduced a specialised version of LynxOS known as LynxOS-178, especially for have within avionics applications that require certification to industry standards like Wash-178B.

A Usenet newsgroup comp.os.lynx is devoted to discussion of LynxOS.
