Embedded E-cast
Summary: An E-cast is a live, single or multiple sponsor event used to educate engineers, programmers, and other industry professionals about a particular product, service, or technology. Each podcast consists of a 45-minute presentation and 15-minute interactive Q&A session. E-casts are moderated by a member of the OpenSystems Media editorial staff or a industry recognized guest moderator. Our E-casts are moderated to keep the event interesting, informative, and technically relevant.

In the last century, transportation, medical, power, and industrial systems were built from individual devices, typically programmed one at a time. The Industrial IoT (IIoT) will change all that.
Travelling at high speed a car can create a noisy environment, making it hard to have a comfortable conversation with other occupants, especially between front and back seats. So, if the voice of the driver could be picked up by a microphone, amplified, and relayed to speakers in the back the dangerous need for the driver to twist around to shout to be heard would be eliminated.
The Internet of Your Things is not about ripping and replacing technologies in your enterprise. It's about leveraging what you have, adding on to your existing systems, using your existing things in new ways, and innovating and optimizing so everything works better together.
Certification of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and software to Design Assurance Level (DAL) A will be a game changer for the avionics industry. Thanks to developments such as OpenGL SC 2.
A growing population and expanding global activities continue to put Earth's resources under pressure, and today many businesses face social, economic, and legislative pressures to make our future not only better, but greener. The Internet of Things (IoT) is bridging the physical and digital worlds, with new solutions that bring significant environmental benefits for people, businesses, and the planet.
In the embedded space, developers need time to learn how to use, build, and run Linux on embedded platforms. And, it takes time, effort, and money to continuously maintain a Linux distribution with support, patches, and security vulnerability protection for your OS and application code.
Companies making virtually any kind of embedded systems are now faced with the daunting task of inter-connecting these devices into a larger communications system that provides intelligent guidance for the user and important analytics that measure efficiencies and capabilities of the resulting IoT system. Creating prototypes of the environment can be deceptively simple - engineering teams may be able to put together compelling proof-of-concept prototypes in a matter of days or weeks.
Connectivity can add great value to many embedded applications. An IoT Gateway is one of the easier ways to connect devices to the cloud without bearing the cost of a full Ethernet or Wi-Fi(r) interface with an accompanying protocol stack.
According to Gartner Research, the demand for connected devices will surge to one trillion by 2040. Research further indicated that there will be US $166 billion invested in the IoT industry by 2020.
Designers of embedded aerospace technology systems from flight controls to avionics displays to engine monitoring systems to in-flight entertainment systems face increasing pressures to reduce development time and in turn reduce labor and long-term life cycle costs all while enhancing performance. To overcome these challenges they often turn to innovative software tools and solutions that focus on simulation, open source tools, life cycle management, and building Internet of Things (IoT) platforms.
When choosing between an open source and commercial OS, what costs are you considering? Although a "free" open source OS may seem attractive at first, further examination reveals hidden costs, associated with development, maintenance, certification, and software team size and dynamic. .
For all its promise, the interconnected world has a dark side, with critical vulnerabilities like Heartbleed and Shellshock being reported more and more often. In this web seminar, well walk you through how we combat reported security exposures, highlight statistical trends from our monitoring data, and explain different aspects you should consider as you create your security strategy.
Designers developing industrial equipment are increasingly in need of simple interfaces that can tolerate harsh operating environments subject to noise, dirt and liquids which can interfere with the reliable operation of mechanical buttons. Capacitive touch technology offers a cost-effective alternative to mechanical buttons across industrial and commercial applications.
While connectivity and data are the currency of our age, capitalizing on them in the automotive sector comes with significant risk. Internal and external vehicle networks are more pervasive than ever before, broadening the attack surface of connected cars and placing an additional burden of safety and security on automakers and Tier 1s.
The scale of connected devices and data continues to present challenges. Data analytics and IoT are driving extensive transformation across industries including medical devices, agriculture, transportation, manufacturing, homes, and smart cities.
