Internet of things
Internet ON things
The center is the Cloud
Things are less important than services
10 years battery powered IoT applications are an illusion until the battery tech evolves
Most of IoT applications will be always ON
The Cloud enables a new life for objects and hardware
Objects and Smart Objects
IoT is not just sensors network
IoT needs designers, software engineers and UX experts to become a reality
The business model will be all around services
Examples of Smart objects based on Flyport
Evian Smart Drop: the first system to order online without a PC/smartphone!
Objects and Smart Objects
The challenge?
Design a new customer experience!
My grandmother understood (and now wants) = it works!
Umbrella holder: the less technologic object in your house
Objects and Smart Objects
The challenge?
think out of the box to Solve people’s needs
It can be smart? Yes it can check the weather forecasts for you!
Flyport : IoT ready platform
3 versions (Wi-Fi, GPRS, Ethernet) + common pinoutSame processor = easy app porting
Flexibility = pinout can be changed by software
Open source (HW:CC-BY-3.0 SW:LGPL-3.0)

Flyport : IoT ready platform
Wi-Fi, GPRS are not low power technologies
How Flyport fits IoT applications?
Low power modes!
Hibernate: transceiver OFF -> mA
Sleep: transceiver + microcontroller OFF ->uA!
Last but not least….Wireless low power technologies need a gateway to the Internet….that needs power!
Flyport : IoT ready platform
Our best solution to demoIoT is Grove Nest (carrier board for Flyport)
Low cost prototypes
80 different sensors/actuators starting at 3€!
Unified hardware connection
Ready to go libraries
Flyport : Internet services
HTTP server (webserver!)
Libraries for IoT Cloud services are available!
HTTP client
TCP client/server
UDP/FTP clientEmail
SMSFirmware upgrade over Internet
Create your application: free IDE
openPicus is a software framework
Stack is running on the microcontorller (freeRTOS manages everything)
APIs = cut your development time from 6 months to few days!
Free IDE+serial bootloader = ZERO investment
Create your application: free IDE
Standard C programming
openPicus started in Rome in March 2010 by Claudio Carnevali (CEO) and Gabriele Allegria (CTO)
IDEA: Connect the real world to the cloud by a 2$ microcontroller and onboard connectivity to Internet
Hardware design was discussed on our Blog. Sharing as company culture.
Our best productsare co-designed with our community
