Azure IoT Hub on a Toradex Colibri VF61 – Part 3: Using Cloud Services to collect Business Intelligence


Azure IoT Hub on a Toradex Colibri VF61


Read our last blog in a three-part series to gain in-depth understanding of building an IoT application based on Toradex System on Modules. Learn how to use Microsoft Azure cloud services like Stream Analytics and PowerBi to provide easily understandable data visualization and business intelligence. The embedded system chosen for this purpose was a Toradex customized Single Board Computer solution: the Colibri VF61 SoM + the Iris Development Board.

Colibri VF61 System on Module - Multicore Heterogeneous Demonstration




Watch a video demonstration of how to use the multi-core heterogeneous processor of Toradex Colibri VF61 System on Module. This computer module is based on the NXP/Freescale VF6xx SoC which possesses a heterogeneous/asymmetrical multi-core architecture. The tow cores present on the processor are ARM Cortex-A5 and ARM Cortex-M4. Both these cores can concurrently run different operating systems. In this video, you will get to see the Linux operating system running with QT on the Cortex-A5 and an ECOS real-time operating system on the Cortex-M4. The Cortex-M4 is responsible for motor controlling and the positioning and the Cortex-A5 the user interface. Follow this link to find more about Colibri VF61 System on Module.

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.

Guest webinar: Over-the-Air is Not Enough - Resin.io’s Robust Solution for Embedded Software Deployment


resin.io-Webinar


The endeavors of Toradex’s partner Resin.io is focused on solving the “devops problem” for IoT. The devices continue to become more powerful and support increasingly complex use cases, than ever resulting in the need for a modern management toolkit. As opposed to traditional Over-the-Air (OTA) or firmware update solutions, Resin.io is built for quick iterative releases and full ongoing visibility into the health of a device fleet. Join the next joint-webinar by Toradex and Resin.io in which Resin.io solution architect Ronald McCollam and Community Lead & Developer Evangelist Gergely Imreh will demonstrate the development, provisioning and deployment of a sample application onto a Toradex Colibri iMX6 System on Module.
