Demo One of the new features that can be found on the FRDM-K82F is the FlexIO header. It’s be specifically designed to interface with the very cost-efficient OV7670 camera, and uses 8 FlexIO lines to read data from the camera. By using the FlexIO feature, it makes it easy to connect a camera to a Kinetis MCU. A demo is included with Kinetis SDK 1.3 which streams the video data from the camera to a host computer over USB     FlexIO: The FlexIO is a highly configurable module found on select Kinetis devices which provides a wide range of functionality including: • Emulation of a variety of serial/parallel communication protocols • Flexible 16-bit timers with support for a variety of trigger, reset, enable and disable conditions • Programmable logic blocks allowing the implementation of digital logic functions on-chip and configurable interaction of internal and external modules • Programmable state machine for offloading basic system control functions from CPU   All with less overhead than software bit-banging, while allowing for more flexibility than dedicated IP.

Demo The NXQ1TXH5 is a one-chip low power Qi transmitter, and it enables an ultra-low cost wireless charging transmitter dramatically reducing application cost while still providing latest WPC version 1.2 Qi compliant performance.   The NXQ1TXH5 demo is provided in an exciting form-factor with a backlight module on which Qi enabled phones can be charged. The demonstration shows the extremely low component count, which is interesting for professionals to understand, and at the same time showing a real-life eye-catching form-factor that draws non-technically skilled person attention. The demonstration challenges people to actually charge their phone and experience charging without wires.   One of the table modules is provided with a table-fan in which there is a Qi power receiver built-in. It can be used as a standby-demo to further draw attention to the demo, even when no phone is placed, and it avoids phones getting lost when there is no expert attending the demo.     The Qi wireless charging demo consists of a module that can be built into any table, using a 181mm round hole and it can simply be dropped into the hole. It is delivered with a universal mains power supply and hence easy to install. Below pictures show the Qi wireless charging table module demo, as well as dimensions to help building it into available infrastructure.   Demo / product features   Ultra low component count solution. Reducing application cost by 30-50% compared to other solutions Easy to layout on 2-sided PCB Excellent EMI behaviour without additional external filtering Ultra low standby power of 10 mW meeting 5-start smartphone charger standby rating High efficiency of 75% Excellent thermal behaviour due to NXPs proprietary low RDSon power silicon technology NXP Recommends   NXQ1TXH5 - Low cost version; contact your local sales representative for information on NXQ1TXL5

The quadcopter drone is a very popular design for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). It consists of a flight controller and four electronic speed controllers (ESCs), one for each motor. The flight controller is equipped with a radio to receive flight commands provided by the pilot and the inertial measurement unit (IMU). The IMU provides information (such as velocity and orientation) that are necessary for autonomous stabilization of the vehicle, using the internal accelerometer, gyroscope, and sometimes the magnetometer and GPS receiver.   Resources Quadcopter Drone Reference Design   Drone Examples - powered by NXP 3DR Drone Spiri Programmable Flying Robot  DJI Phantom 3 Advanced

What is an IoT Gateway? An IoT Gateway is essential part of a Trust enabled, power-efficient IoT deployment in buildings, homes, street and industrial sites. The low-power foot-print is achieved by having low-power, low-cost sensor nodes connecting over low-power, shorter range radio networks. The IoT Gateway bridges between these wireless sensor networks and the enterprise or carrier networks.   Furthermore, the IoT gateway also provides a platform for local data filtering and decision making. This is context aware computing. In near future, the cost of processing data will be less than the cost of moving data across a network and less than the cost of data storage. It makes sense to distribute the intelligence and process/filer data close to the data source. In this session, one of the first public demo’s of LS1021A, NXP will demonstrate an ready-to-use IoT gateway platform together with sensor and cloud connectivity. Value Propositions    Coupling IoT to SDN and Big Data. LS10121A IoT Gateway   Customer-premise IoT Gateways – Industrial, Enterprise, Home, Street-side     Distributed/Local Intelligence for real-time decision making and management (context aware computing)                                                                     High-availability, Trust Enabled networking, highly power efficient      NXP Recommends: Product Link LS1021A-IoT Gateway Reference Design LS1021A-IoT Gateway Reference Design | NXP
