Autonomous devices often have operating systems that have no interface
to users, these operating systems manage system resources and schedule
tasks, several tasks had direct control over devices that the OS did not
manage and what limited interaction these systems had with users was
through those devices to those tasks. I can';t give more specific
details than that.

Example for such an OS? I can't think of one.
