Connecting Devices to the Cloud on Open Source Hardware and Software Colin Miller – Microsoft Chris Walker – Secret Labs LLC Connected Devices – The Internet of Things The connection of the physical world with the virtual world. eg - Thames water (replacing Victorian Cast Iron water mains with new plastic pipes and instrumenting all of it.) Don’t wait for the sink hole, send a crew before the failure. Eliminate waste in many parts of all of our infrastructure systems. Not just new applications but new business models Perspective - 1.5B Internet connected PCs - <1B Internet connected phones - By 2020 – 50B Internet connected Devices “But the bandwagon is not just rolling for the benefit of technology companies and ambitious politicians. It has gained momentum because there is a real need for such systems. In many countries the physical infrastructure is ageing, health-care costs are exploding and money is tight. Using resources more intelligently can make taxpayers’ money go further. Monitoring patients remotely can be much cheaper and safer than keeping them in hospital. A bridge equipped with the right sensors can tell engineers when it needs to be serviced. “ The Economist Imagine Cup 2011 winning team – Team Hermes Example Industrial Scenarios Fleet Tracking Power Usage Labor Allocation Power generation Predictive Maintenance Inventory Management The Internet of Things ‘Stack’ Public Cloud Private Cloud Device Management Smart devices – Dumb devices Privacy Gateway devices Security Data Analytics Why managed code on Devices It’s not the ‘embedded’ development environment we are used to Changes to the embedded development landscape - Before mostly no OS or proprietary OS - Lower cost/power of 32 bit processors - Connected applications more complex and require a stack - Moving to standard OS options Productivity Uniformity - A single programming model and tool chain throughout connected solutions The NETMF Open Source Project Smallest .NET implementation Targets small 32 bit processors (ARM 7-9, Cortex M(x), Analog Devices Blackfin, Renesas SH2) Currently used in consumer products, industrial automation, energy management, health/eldercare, and lots of new categories.
