The kit is a complete, off-the-shelf single board computer (SBC) built on the ConnectCore for NXP’s i.MXUltraLite applications processor and designed specifically for rapid development and prototyping of a secure gateway platform for intelligent connected devices.

When Apple launched the first iPhone back in 2007, controlling industrial machinery and large plants via a touch-screen was unthinkable – in the meantime this has become a matter of course though. It is therefore plain to see, even without virtual reality glasses, that augmented reality, which is becoming more and more common in the private sector, will also become the standard in the professional sector.

The advanced ST25DV dynamic-tag ICs are the latest addition to the ST25 NFC/RFID product family that come with a rich featured contactless RF interface and I2C bus. The dual-interface enables untethered interaction between an NFC-capable smartphone or an RFID reader and the host microcontroller located inside near-by equipment, such as smart meters, IoT devices, professional, or consumer products.

A new sensor node board that delivers the low power operation and connectivity required for Internet of Things (IoT), smart sensing and cloud applications has been developed by Avnet Silica. The distributor has combined processing, sensing and connectivity from STMicroelectronics with the ARM mbed IoT Device Platform, which provides a complete solution including an advanced OS to run hardware, device management in the cloud and advanced security.

Battery charging without cables can add convenience, durability and safety to a number of different applications.For example, smartphone charging on the go, such as in public places, or home charging stations that don’t require that search for the correct charging cable.

Three new products in the successful open source BeagleBone range are being shipped by Premier Farnell. They are BeagleBone Black Wireless, the element14 Wireless Connectivity Cape and the element14 4.3in. Display Cape. The BeagleBone Black Wireless now has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities built in, removing the need for design or hardware workarounds.

The latest LQM18JN series of chip inductors from Murata have been developed for near field communication (NFC) applications. The devices can overcome the inherent problems associated with previous NFC designs to offer a better, more consistent performance.
