This is the fourth and final blog in a series on the ARM® Wall of Boards at Embedded World 2016.
Today we’ll cover the boards representing some exciting emerging trends in the electronics and embedded domain. The first of these is an extremely intriguing…
While open source hardware has dramatically reduced the time and cost associated with product development, there are still a few speed bumps that Makers and designers must endure en route to taking their idea from prototype to mass production. Looking…
More times than not, developers are faced with two bad options: either deliver a substandard product quickly, or reinvent the wheel and miss the market altogether. Luckily, one Santa Barbara-based startup has come up with a solution, not just a band-aid…
After migrating from an Arduino to a Raspberry Pi, Maker Jonathan Peace discovered that there were still some things that he just couldn’t do with a barebones Unix platform. In search of a way to help alleviate this problem, Ardhat was born
Billed…
When it comes to saving files nowadays, we have several options ranging from good ol’ flash drives and discs to cloud storage. However, let’s face it. How many pocket-sized USB devices have you lost in the past, leaving you no choice but to go buy another…
Anyone who has ever attended an electronic dance concert or a nightclub knows that music and vibrant lights go together like a rama lamma lamma ka dinga da dinga dong. Well, a Bay Area-based startup is now converging these two into a slick set of earbuds…
As we learned during Kickstarter Week modern development boards are amazing tools that have put the power of the microprocessor into the hands of hobbyists and entrepreneurs everywhere. These development boards are capable of handling multiple inputs…
The fun never stops during ARM Kickstarter week and our latest interview is with Humberto Evans, the creator of Pantelligent. This is a great story of determination and an interesting business "pivot". I met Humberto a few years ago when he launched…
Connect the unconnected and that's exactly what three cat-loving Ph.D. students at the University of Illinois did with their robotic cat toy that reacts to your cat - yup, and they're claiming (I trust them, since this is their passion) Mousr…
Its ARM Kickstarter week and I must admit that as we dig into all things Kickstarter I am amazed by how much is happening, for those who have long and non-volatile memories, it’s like a Heathkit or Altair being born every week:
[Heathkit, left, Altair…
For ARM Kickstarter Week I interviewed Kaido Kert about his brand new Kickstarter project called Blossom. I was personally interested in this project because I have a couple of highly dysfunctional sprinkler controllers at my house that have been nothing…
I think it’s very fitting that we start ARM Kickstarter Week with a teardown of the Pebble watch. To me the Pebble was a breakthrough hardware product on Kickstarter and it broke new ground in two ways; first it showed there was a real market for…
For our first interview during Kickstarter Week we decided to start at the beginning of hardware design and look at the development board choices for aspiring Kickstarters. This is a good news scenario compared to just a few years ago because not only…
Laura Kassovic has a vision for designing game changing wearables so if you are in the market or about to be then listen up. Laura is CEO of MbientLab and has her first Kickstarter under her belt; the MetaWear Bluetooth development platform:
Laura…
Experts from ARM share insights and differing viewpoints on the big issues facing wearable developers of software applications.
Software developers must address many domains to successfully design the latest wearable applications – from signal conditioning…
In the spirit of some of the more well-known ARM-based development boards and their popular communities, I was curious what other innovative ideas are out there being crowdsourced. Just a bit of research quickly revealed eight ARM-based embedded projects…
