IoT DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM
Fast development and time to market at predictable scaling costs
are critical for success in the IoT market. To enable Android Things hardware
platforms to meet these goals TechNexion has worked with Google and selected a
development platform based on the i.MX7 applications processor family from NXP
Semiconductors. PICO-PI-IMX7 is a highly integrated multi-market applications
system with advanced features designed to enable secure and portable
applications within the Internet of Things. The platform has been qualified and
tested by Google to run Android Things at optimal performance.
BRINGING DEVICE PRODUCTION TO EVERYONE
Android Things lets you build professional, mass-market products
on a trusted platform, without previous knowledge of embedded system design. It
delivers security at the scale you need it via Google-managed updates and
verified boot. Android Things reduces the large upfront development costs and
risks inherent in getting your idea off the ground. When you are ready to ship
large quantities of devices, your costs scale linearly. In addition, on-going
engineering and testing costs are reduced by updates.
TARGET APPLICATIONS
TechNexion PICO-PI-IMX7 platform can be applied in a wide range
of applications ranging from locks, to door controls, to fire alarm
thermostats, to appliances, to lights, to plugs, to moisture and temperature
sensors, and applications with high level of complexity.
GETTING STARTED
TechNexion is one of Google’s hardware partners selected to
deliver Android Things development platform to facilitate fast prototyping and
product development at predictable scaling costs. To enable this fast
development and time to market TechNexion’s platform consisting of PICO-PI
baseboard PICO-IMX7 system on module based on the NXP i.MX7 applications processor
family has been qualified and tested by Google. The PICO-PI-IMX7 was chosen for
its exceptional processing and low-power performance; both critical for IoT end
products. We also offer PICO-PI-IMX7-STARTKIT developer kit, that provides all
the hardware that customer needs to speed up prototyping and time to
production.
