IoT
One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec
At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.
Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.
Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

Starter Kit for X-board with Ultralow-Power XScale PXA255 Processor
New Kit for Development of Miniature Computers
Deggendorf, Germany, Juli 2nd, 2004 - Kontron has put together a new evaluation kit for developers of fanless miniature computers, which is based on the business card-sized Computer-On-Module X-board. The board is equipped with an ARM-compatible 200MHz or 400MHz XScale PXA255 processor and has a power consumption of just 1.5 W. The starter kit contains everything needed to begin an evaluation: an ATX-compatible power supply for 115 V or 230 V, a 5.7" color QVGA TFT display with background lighting and a JILI display adaptor. In addition, the evaluation baseboard for X-board has the following interfaces: 2x USB Host, 1x USB Client, 1x LAN, 4x serial UART slots, 2x PCI slots and 1x MiniPCI socket for expansion cards, AC97 Sound and 1x socket for vibration-proof CompactFlash cards. 64 MByte of DRAM and 32 MByte of Flash memory are already integrated into X-board. In addition to the kit a null-modem cable (crossed cable to link two computers via RS232 interface) is delivered to connect the developer´s computer with the starter kit. Windows® CE is pre-installed, and the Linux board support package is included on CD-ROM. Additional board support packages are available on request.
Systems based on X-board are employed when space is tight or when small displays that are both functional and attractive are needed: in airplane cockpits, elevators, living spaces and (mobile) devices for daily use - as well as in countless varieties of machines and industrial equipment. Its extremely long battery life makes it ideal for use in mobile applications, and its advantageous combination of high performance and energy-saving design leaves conventional x86 processors way behind.
A special feature of X-board is that USB is available as both device and host. Thus, this solution is suitable for conventional connection of USB peripherals, for Plug & Play recognition for remote maintenance or for embedding of X-board in complex USB peripherals.
