Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Intel’s Edison at CES 2014”.
Okay, so this is inter Anacin. This is basically a for Intel PC in the size of an SD card. So what do we have on it? This is my fight plus Bluetooth, Low Energy. This is memory sitting on top of a two core processor SOC. This is flash storage and on the back side, you have all kinds of i/o pins.
The top pins can do SDIO master display or SPI. Depending on software programming, those pins on the bottom ooh GPIO UART, I CI 2’s PWM the usual suspects. The two cores one of the course is for the one of four version: automatics and the other core – will run a real-time operating system, much lower power consumption. So the idea is really to plug this thing into a wide variety of devices like baby monitors, 2 cups, baby bottle warmers toy cars.
Anything you name it. This is meant to be plugged into those things and turn these things into an app. So you can write applications for I’m Thomas, the public, I’ve refreshed devices and I’m here with Intel and the new Edison ship. So what’s really cool about this? Is it’s essentially one of Intel’s new core chips, a dual-core processor running Linux, and this is all embedded onto a single SD card with both built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy.
So it’s a very low power trip as well, which means we can pretty much put it into any. So we have a couple different products here back we have a bottle warmer, we have a lung and we have our MIMO monitor and so we’re actually able to insert one of the Edison chips directly into the terminal which enable us to both increase its computation power By a lot and also reduce the cost pretty significantly so the Edison chip itself can it’s got built-in Wi-Fi, so you can SSH directly into it and kind of program it from there or you can kind of just slide it into any normal SD card readers and Then load up some software and do kind of whatever you want. It’S a very flexible system and pretty similar to a Raspberry Pi, just a much much smaller package.
