IoT prototyping kit aims to decrease time-to-market
To enable developers to rapidly prototype ideas and concepts for IoT devices and applications, Broadcom has introduced a development kit. The Wireless Internet Connectivity for Embedded Devices (WICED) Sense kit is an all-in-one IoT prototyping kit that includes the company's Bluetooth Smart chip, five MEMS and a software stack that is Bluetooth 4.1 compatible.
With the development kit, even non-technical designers can take advantage of Broadcom's Bluetooth technology and low-power MEMS sensors to build custom applications. To start experimenting with sensor technology, users can simply unbox the WICED Sense kit, download the WICED Sense application and pair the two devices using Bluetooth Smart. Uses range from a single sensor technology to sophisticated programs gathering and analysing data from multiple sensors.
"With hundreds of new ideas for applications and devices for the Internet of Things being hatched daily, it is critical that developers can quickly test their concepts and bring them to market ahead of the competition," said Brian Bedrosian, Broadcom Senior Director, Embedded Wireless, Wireless Connectivity. "Broadcom's WICED Sense development kit provides an easy-to-use, low-cost and complete testing package for OEMs and start-ups alike to continue pushing the limits on technology innovation."
The Broadcom WICED Sense Kit is available now for $19.99.
