Here is a video that shows the NFC feature integrated into our Android Lollipop 5.0.0 code base. It is running on our Nitrogen6x platform along with the NXP PN7120 development kit. The video shows that a NFC tag, programmed with Boundary's URL, is automatically read and starts the Browser accordingly. In order to read/write data from a NFC data, Android provides a fully documented API. If you seek an existing application to write tags, here are a couple of options: NXP TagWriter app StickyNotes sample code For more information, please visit http://boundarydevices.com/

As i.MX6 empowers the Surveillance applications, iWave has developed a system that brings together video streams from four cameras on four i.MX6 Pico ITX SBCs placed in four different locations through Ethernet. The fifth Pico ITX captures the video streams from the Ethernet and displays on a single HDMI monitor as indicated in the following block diagram. The system requires five i.MX6 Dual Pico-ITX boards connected with LAN. Each of four boards are connected with cameras which capture the video, encode and streams it as RTP packets.  The fifth board receives four streams of RTP packets and displays to four slots in HDMI. Operating system used is Yocto of Dora Version. MIPI or CSI cameras can be used for the video capture (tested with 5MP MIPI camera). All the four cameras share the screen equally and the display resolution of each camera is 854x480. For ease of demonstration we have used one Pico-ITX per camera, however for real life scenario and to keep down costs there is a possiblity that each i.MX6 Pico-ITX SBC can be connected to two cameras. Each pico-itx with i.MX6 quad/dual core can capture video from two cameras simultaneously. The same streaming procedure needs to be followed for this scenario too with it appropriate IP and Port number. For more details please reach to mktg@iwavesystems.com

The BSP can be used to build Windows Embedded Compact 7 and Compact 2013 kernels. Some highlights: Support for UL & ULL Display clone CE Updater (update firmware from within CE) Multi-touch Super fast and reliable USB RNDIS and USB Serial for KITL Simplified use of hive-based registry (no need to pre-format disks anymore) Completely verified clock tree code Gigabit Ethernet (on selected boards and with limitations due to NDIS) Easy switch USB function Copy/update firmware from SD to eMMC Keep track of reason of last reset (power-on reset, software reset, watchdog reset, etc) Many improvements to our BSP catalog to make working with our BSP even easier And many more improvements, fixes and new features! Further details in the release notes. Our promise We will keep improving our iMX6 BSP, adding new features and we will be supporting our customers for many years to come, at the very least until the end of Microsoft's extended support end date of 10 October 2023. Even though the GuruCE i.MX6 BSP is already the best performing, 100% OAL stable and most feature-rich i.MX6 BSP on the market today, there are always things to improve or fix and new features to implement. Here's our wishlist: Bring hardware accelerated H.264 video codecs to WEC2013 (not just WEC7) Improve Gigabit network performance Animated GIF bootsplash support Create a solid solution for multi-display touch As always; if you have anything you want us to add to the list or you want us to prioritize an item on the list: contact us and we'll make it happen. Don't forget to check our Testimonials page to see what some of our customers have to say about the GuruCE i.MX6 BSP. Don't believe the hype? Try it yourself! We've got free downloadable evaluation kernels for the Element14 RIoTboard, the Boundary Devices SABRE-Lite, Nitrogen6X and Nitrogen6_VM, the Device Solutions Opal6 (all variants), the Digi ConnectCore6, the NXP SDP (DualLite & Quad), the SDB-QP(QuadPlus), the NXP MCIMX6ULL EVK (ULL), the Toradex Colibri and the Variscite VAR-SOM_MX6 (Dual/Quad) Starter Kit.
