    Cookies, Things and the Internet - by Toradex

    Join us for Grand Central Bakery Cookies and Beverages and learn more about development for the Things in IoT. We will have a couple of talks and demos, and there will be plenty of time for question and answers.


    Cookies, Things and the Internet - by Toradex


    We have the following segments:

    Windows 10 and Visual Studio for development on Linux

    You will learn how you can use Bash on Windows 10 to build Linux images and how to use Visual Studio to develop and debug native code on an ARM based Linux Device.

    Asymmetric Hetreouges Multicore for low-power and real-time Things

    We will introduce you to the concept of Heterogeneous Multicore Processing. Many new ARM SoC like NXPs i.MX7 come with general purpose microcontrollers. This allows for very power efficient use cases typical found in smart watches or weather stations or allow to meet real-time requirements in an easy way. We will have a cool robot demo to demonstrate the concept.

    Update on Windows 10 IoT Core on ARM Devices

    Very brief update on the current status of Win 10 IoT core

    Azure IoT SDK

    Learn about available SDKs and see how simple you can connect a sensor to the could.
    Toradex hosts the event. There will be live demos including extreme fast booting Linux / Qt systems, and CUDA enabled low power Devices. We will raffle away an i.MX7 Development Kit and we will have some goodies from our partner the Qt Company.

    Bringing the Power of CUDA to Small Devices - Presented by Toradex

    In recent years, CUDA® and powerful GPUs have given Desktop PCs, Servers and Super Computers new capabilities. Starting with the NVIDIA® Tegra K1 and X1 it is now possible to bring this capability to embedded devices like Drones, Underwater Robotics, Cars, Mobile Medical Devices, Smart Cameras and even Cube Satellites and many more. The complete design of an embedded system – including the NVIDIA SoC, DDR RAM, power supply & BSP adaptations – is quite complex. Although it is not a big hurdle for those who build hundreds-of-thousands of devices with substantial resources & expertise, it can be prohibitive to design such a complex system for a smaller volume product on a limited development budget. A solution is Computer on Modules (CoM) – also called System on Modules (SoM). A CoM encapsulates the complexity of the computing system onto a module, significantly lowering the complexity of a specialized design for a real product.


    CUDA for Small Devices


    In this talk, we will discuss current SoM solutions like the NVIDIA Jetson TX1 module or the Toradex Apalis TK1. You will learn about the architecture of such a system. We will demonstrate a typical development process and you will get a feel for the skill set and resources required to transform a maker board prototype into a real product. In the end, we will look at some applications where such systems are deployed, including drones, robots, cinema cameras and even a 24-module TK1 micro cluster.

    Takeaway:
  • Learn how to bring CUDA to low power devices
  • Experience how to get from a Proof of Concept to Production Device using a system on module
  • Get an overview/inspiration from embedded devices incorporating CUDA

    Webinar on-demand: Creating IoT applications with Toradex and Microsoft Azure (Portuguese)




    Toradex along with the special participation of Microsoft , presents a technical demonstration of the development of a robust and scalable solution IoT . With the use of a computer module that meets the stringent requirements for an application IoT (low power consumption, long life, compact form factor, 24/7 operational capability, etc.), a scalable solution is created that connects this embedded system to the cloud Azure using the Node.js language to connect to the IoT Hub service which is in turn connected to the visualization tool Power BI after they pass through a filter of Stream Analytics. The end result is to obtain a data preview pane in the cloud, from the collection and shipment of these by the embedded system.

    Windows 10 IoT Core: From the Embedded Device to the Cloud and Back


    Toradex - Embedded World - 2016

    Today’s powerful and dedicated devices are successfully replacing PCs. They offer more dependable, inexpensive and less power-consuming solutions. To deal with current requirements about rich user interfaces, connectivity, and security, embedded developers require tools that will be more productive, while offering reliable and scalable solutions. Windows 10 IoT can run on resource-constrained devices, providing a good share of the features that Windows 10 provides on PCs, smartphone and tablets. This will let existing PC and mobile developers migrate their existing solutions easily and apply their knowledge to the embedded domain. Using Visual Studio, developers can use the same development environment from the device to the cloud, and use popular languages (like C# and javascript), tools and technologies to develop end-to-end Internet of Things solutions.

    If you find this discussion interesting, join Valter Minute for his speaker session on ‘Windows 10 IoT Core: From the Embedded Device to the Cloud and Back’ during the Embedded World 2016. Valter is a Microsoft MVP who works for Toradex AG, Switzerland. He is a published author of numerous technical articles and a book about Raspberry Pi, along with being a regular speaker at developer conferences.
