GoPoint   GoPoint is a user-friendly application that allows the user to launch preselected demonstrations included in the NXP provided BSP and follows the quarterly release roadmap for BSP How to launch GoPoint     GoPoint Demo On FRDM-IMX93 Board Since FRDM-IMX93 board’s BSP is based on standard BSP release, GoPoint is included in FRDM-IMX93 Yocto build by default. List of 9 demos available on FRDM-IMX93 Board: Image Classification Object Detection Selfie Segmenter i.MX Smart Fitness DMS (Driver Monitor System) ML Benchmark Video Test i.MX Smart Kitchen i.MX E-Bike VIT   Image Classification Demo Image classification is a ML task that attempts to comprehend an entire image as a whole. The goal is to classify the image by assigning it to a specific label. Typically, it refers to images in which only one object appears and is analyzed. This example is using NNStreamer.            Object Detection Demo Object detection is the ML task that detects instances of objects of a certain class within an image. A bounding box and a class label are found for each detected object. This example is using NNStreamer.        Selfie Segmenter Demo Selfie Segmenter showcases the ML capabilities of i.MX 93 by using the NPU to accelerate an instance segmentation model. This model lets you segment the portrait of a person and can be used to replace or modify the background of an image. This example is using NNStreamer.         i.MX Smart Fitness Demo i.MX Smart Fitness showcases the i.MX' Machine Learning capabilities by using an NPU to accelerate two Deep Learning vision-based models. Together, these models detect a person present in the scene and predict 33 3D-keypoints to generate a complete body landmark, known as pose estimation. From the pose estimation, the application tracks the 'squats' fitness exercise.          DMS (Driver Monitor System) Demo This application showcases the capability of implementing DMS on i.MX 93 platform, and the performance boost brought by Neural Processing Unit (NPU). DMS uses four ML models in total to achieve face detection, capturing face landmark and iris landmark, smoking detection and calling detection.         ML Benchmark Demo This example is based on benchmark_model tool in Tensorflow Lite framework, which allows to easily compare the performance of TensorFlow Lite models running on CPU (Cortex-A) and NPU.   Video Test Demo This is a simple demo that allows users to play back video captured on a camera or a test source. It’s based on gstreamer pipeline.            i.MX Smart Kitchen Demo i.MX Smart Kitchen showcases the Multimedia capabilities of i.MX to emulate an interactive kitchen through a GUI controlled by voice commands. The GUI is based on LVGL (Little Versatile Graphic Library) and NXP's Voice Intelligent Technology (VIT) supports the voice commands. Usage: Keyword + command       i.MX E-Bike VIT Demo i.MX E-Bike VIT showcases the Multimedia capabilities of i.MX to emulate an interactive ebike through a GUI controlled by voice commands. The GUI is based on LVGL (Little Versatile Graphic Library) and NXP's Voice Intelligent Technology (VIT) supports the voice commands.

MCXW71 is a three-core platform that integrates a Cortex-M33 application core (CM33), a dedicated Cortex-M3 radio core, and an isolated EdgeLock Secure Enclave. The radio core, also called as Narrow Band Unit (NBU) features a Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) unit with a dedicated flash. The memories integrated in the NBU consist of Bluetooth LE controller stack and radio drivers. On MCXW71, only boot ROM has access to the NBU flash. The ROM bootloader provides an in-system programming (ISP) utility that operates over a serial connection on the microcontroller units (MCUs) This hands-on describes how to update the code in NBU and the User firmware using the ISP. Lab guide: FRDM-MCXW71_NBU_and_User_Firmware_Update_Using_ISP

MCX W series are secure, wireless MCUs designed to enable more compact, scalable and innovative designs for the next generation of smart and secure connected devices. The MCX W series, based on the Arm® Cortex®-M33, offers a unified range of pin-compatible multiprotocol wireless MCUs for Matter™, Thread®, Bluetooth® Low Energy and Zigbee®. MCX W enables interoperable and innovative smart home devices, building automation sensors and controls and smart energy products.   MCX W71 Hands on Training   FRDM-MCXW71: NBU and User Firmware Update Using ISP       This hands-on describes how to update the code in NBU and the User firmware using the ISP. FRDM-MXCW71: Recognize NBU Incompatible Versions            The objective in this hands-on, is to learn how to recognize when the NBU firmware does not match with the SDK version. FRDM-MCXW71: Run Hello World SDK Demo           In this lab we will first import the MCUXpresso SDK for the MCX W71 Freedom board into MCUXpresso IDE and then we will build, flash and debug the hello world project to make sure the environment is set for the following Labs. FRDM-MCXW71: Run Blinky LED SDK Demo          In this lab we make some experience with the FRDM-MCXW71 board using the SDK project to implement a simple LED blinking. Once we will get familiar with the example project, we will integrate simple modifications FRDM-MCXW71: Wireless UART IoT Toolbox Demo          Goal of this lab is to show the SDK example implementing the wireless UART profile and we will move forward in making some meaningful modifications to the example itself with the goal to show where in the code the end user should enter the relevant application software for the application. FRDM-MCXW71: Low Power Reference Desing SDK Demo          This hands-on describes how to run the Low Power Reference Design demo on FRDM-MCXW71. Two low-power reference design applications are provided in the SDK reference_design folder, these applications aim at providing: • A reference design application for low power/timing optimization on a Bluetooth Low Energy application. These can be used in first intent for porting a new application on low power. • A way for measuring the power consumption, wake-up time, and active time in various power modes.   MCX W72 Hands on Training  Coming Soon!     Wireless Connectivity Trainings Bluetooth Low Energy  Introduction to Thread Network
