Today, ARM launched the ARM mbed IoT Starter Kit – Ethernet Edition to channel data from internet-connected devices directly into IBM’s Bluemix cloud platform.
ARM states that the combination of a secure sensor environmentwith cloud-based analytics, mobile and application resources from IBM will allow fast prototyping of new smart products and unique value-added services. The first products developed using the kit are expected to enter the market in 2015.
“Securely embedding intelligence and connectivity into devices from the outset will create cloud-connected products that are far more capable than today,” says Krisztian Flautner, general manager for IoT business at ARM. “Smart cities, businesses and homes capable of sharing rich information about their surroundings will be critical in unlocking the potential of IoT. The ARM IoT Starter Kit will accelerate the availability of connected devices by making product and service prototyping faster and easier.”
The kit consists of an ARM mbed-enabled development board from Freescale, powered by an ARM Cortex-M4 based processor, together with a sensor IO application shield.
Future versions of the kit will run the new ARM mbed OS and use ARM mbed Device Server software to deliver a range of efficient security, communication and device management features.
ARM and IBM will continue to work together on interoperable, open, secure and scalable connectivity between devices and the cloud.
“The internet of things is about bringing the physical and digital worlds closer together, to allow businesses to better understand and interact with what is happening around them,” says Meg Divitto, vice-president for IoT, IBM. “In order to make this work for businesses, it needs to be simple to connect physical devices into the cloud, and to build applications and insights around them. IBM Bluemix and the new ARM mbed starter kit are designed to substantially enhance that effort.”
