It sounds almost like a tale: Every Year again all the Experts of the Embedded Market meet in a little old Town in the Forrest of Bavaria. They are coming from all nations in flying machines to see the latest inovation and talk to each other in a language filled with Buzz words only few might understand if they not belong to this totally Engineering group.... Also this Year Embedded World took place like always in end of February. I have been on a few times on Embedded Worlds now, but it is always great to go again. Every year there is something new to spot and I also enjoy to meet old friends and silicon vendors to discuss about the latest evolution/revolution. This Year I attended the Show for TechNexion and we showed our latest Products based on NXP's ARM chips, like our tiny PICO Modules which are also available with NXP i.MX6UL now and the ideal choice for multimedia applications or where not much space is available. With i.MX6 and i.MX7 options it ofers a nice scalability. Not to forget the fitting baseboard which makes us the HW provider of choice for NXP and Google for the Brillo OS Of Course we also showed our EDM Modules, the work horse of the industry. Reliable. Rugged. Open Source Standard. With 82mm x 60mm it's a small formfactor with a great scalability from Single to DualLite or Quad core. And of course also available with i.MX7 New have been our TEK-Series, a Series of ruggedized, fan-less, cable-less BoxPC's with a Modular approach so Customer can choose the right configuration from off-the-shelf components Also new have been our TEP-Seriees, which is a Series of HMI's ranging from 7" to 10" and 15", also based on the same modular, cable-free- fan-less approach like the TEK-Series.

e-con Systems designed & implemented a reliable Machine to Machine (M2M) solution for mobile phone tower monitoring based on eSOMiMX6, an NXP-Freescale iMX6 SOM. Read further to know the challenges faced and how the team executed the system. M2M Solution for Cellphone Tower Monitoring​ Customer Requirement: System to monitor several parameters such as, temperature, smoke, power source, door open, diesel level etc. in the cell phone tower and remotely monitor them through cloud. The system should monitor and raise alarm when the values exceeded the threshold limit; it should send a text message to the authorities. Challenges: The main challenge in designing the system started with the electrical & electronics and high noise with ESD & EMI signals. It was very important to design the system in such a way that it could interact with the sensors and at the same time, should not be affected by radiated or conducted electromagnetic disturbance. The system cable faced high ESD & EFT injections & the temperature had to be maintained under 25° to power up the system. Approach: e-con Systems designed an architecture based on eSOMiMX6 system on modules that is highly reliable. The system was proposed to extract the information about the tower & communicate the same with cloud. Amazon cloud based web services was used on the cloud side to monitor various parameters & to send the alerts. Base board implemented with eSOMiMX6 interacted with all sensors, collected the information and same would be transmitted via a GPRS unit or Ethernet or wireless unit. Depending on the availability, system selected one path & EMI/EMC/ESD events protected the path of information collection. Power saving modes was designed keeping in mind product power consumption & the total power used when running in diesel generator. The product was tested in-house with simulated tower environment for 2 weeks (24/7) continuously. All issues were identified and addressed. e-con Systems worked with the customers at all levels to get the necessary certification approval. Conclusion: Customer is now successfully selling the robust product in the market. The tower monitoring business is now highly profitable as breakdowns were brought down to nearly zero

iWave's PICO-ITX board embedded with i.MX6 Quad core processor loaded with Yocto-Dora 1.5.3 now is capable of capturin g and streaming full HD (1080p) video from an on-board camera. Not only it can stream 1080p full HD video to a destined host machine, it is also capable of streaming two 1080p (2 streams) simultaneously at 24fps. In some of the use case scenario, user may want to stream two streams of different resolutions like 1080p and 720p simultaneously. Where high resolution on faster network and low resolution on low bandwidth network, in such use case scenario it is possible to stream multiple streams at various resolutions. The differentiating feature in this system is, it can encode and stream multiple streams simultaneously at maximum 1080p resolution or lesser.  The maximum streaming achieved on all i.MX system earlier was VGA. The possible application of this system could be surveillance and streaming server at full HD resolution. Dual Video Streaming using i.MX6 Dual Pico-ITX Single Board Computer Imagine a system which has two independent displays and can run different content from the embedded computer at the same time. iWave has developed this system with i.MX 6 processor based PICO-ITX platform running Yocto-Dora(1.5) is now equipped with such feature. The system can decode and play two different HD (1080p@24fps) videos at the time using two LVDS displays. For further information or enquiries please write to mktg@iwavesystems.com

iWave has now enabled the new Hotspot feature in Android ICS 4.0.4 on iMX6 Qseven board. Internet Sharing is one of the most popular concepts in wireless communication today. A device having Data Pack can share its internet connectivity with other devices, this feature is known as 'Hotspot'. By enabling Hotspot in i.MX6 Q7 evaluation board we can use the board an Access Point. Once the Device is enabled with Hotspot, all other devices (we'll call it as client devices) within the minimum coverage range will get Network SSID in their Available wireless network's list. Once connected, client devices will be provided with the internet access. Android allows tethering only if the device is provided with mobile data pack or through Ethernet. So, the Board is connected to internet using Ethernet. As security is the major consideration in wireless communication, Hotspot feature is provided with following security modes. WPA2-PSK is more secure -                      (i)Open, (ii)WPA-PSK and (iii)WPA2-PSK Implementation of Non Standard Android feature – Simultaneous Wi-Fi Station-Hotspot modes: Basic android architecture does not support simultaneous operation of Station mode and Hotspot. Now iWave is providing support for simultaneous working of Station and Hotspot, which allows sharing the available Wi-Fi connectivity, with its client devices. This feature supports, Device(iWave iMX6 Qseven development board) works as a Wi-Fi Access Point(Standard android feature) Device works as a Wi-Fi Client (Standard android feature) Device works simultaneously as a Wi-Fi AP and a client(Non-standard android feature) A Wi-Fi mobile or tablet connects to Device's Access Point(AP) Device (As a client) connects to a public AP Device bridges the two connections and enables the Wi-Fi mobile to connect to the public AP Board acts as an Access Point by enabling Hotspot feature. Then the board will act as client by switching on Wi-Fi feature and connecting to an Access Point which is connected to internet. Pros and cons: Pros: Internet connectivity sharing is possible. Hotspot is provided with Open, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK security modes. Network range is up to 10m. Device can act as station and as SoftAP simultaneous. Cons: Number of client devices supported is limited to 10. For further information or enquiries please write to mktg@iwavesystems.com or visit www.iwavesystems.com
