u-blox has announced ARM mbed OS 5 support for the ODIN-W2 wireless IoT gateway module and the NINA-B1 Bluetooth low energy module.
The ARM mbed OS 5 incorporates a real-time operating system (RTOS) in the core of the operating system. This open environment provides all the features needed to rapidly deploy and develop connected IoT products based on an ARM Cortex-M microcontroller, including security, connectivity, and drivers for sensors and I/O devices.
At this year’s ARM TechCon event held in October, u-blox showcased the new power of NINA-B1 and ODIN-W2 in a sensor-to-gateway-to-cloud scenario. In the live demonstration, the ODIN-W2 read sensor data via Bluetooth low energy technology from NINA-B1-equipped sensors, and simultaneously streamed it via Wi-Fi to an IBM cloud server, allowing for real-time data visualisation and analysis.
The already certified ODIN-W2, NINA-B1 and wireless stacks are ideal for typical embedded applications which require a small footprint implementation with responsive, high-performance hardware and an open CPU architecture. Usage scenarios include IoT, medical and industrial applications which use multiple sensors and/or smart gateways linked by Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The ARM mbed development environment, with its extensive tools and libraries, gives embedded application designers and developers full access to each u-blox module’s ARM Cortex-M4 based microcontroller. This allows them to avoid the need for an external host CPU.
