Android, Linux, QNX, Symbian and Windows in M2M applications

By Harald Naumann - Last updated: Monday, September 6, 2010 - Save & Share - 2 Comments

I already started several projects on embedded Linux (GE863-Pro3 or UC864-G + BeagleBoard). One is for example a metering project for a customer in India. Development and manufacturing  is provided by a business partner of mine in Germany.

The next higher level is based on BeagleBoard http://www.beagleboard.org. The BeagleBoard is an open source single board PC. In cooperation with the Symbian Developer Community antrax Datentechnik has developed an extension interface with UMTS module. The Beagleboard is supporting Symbian, Linux, Android, QNX and Windows XX. The adapter board with UC864-G plus Beagleboard can be used by the embedded Linux community easily.

At www.beagleboard.org you will find 180+ open source projects.

Further projects on GE863-Pro3:
- Camera: Made by http://www.antrax.de
- Tracking device:  Made by http://www.antrax.de
- RTU based on GE863-Pro3
- Application of a student working with antrax Datentechnik GmbH
- Application were I signed an NDA based on GE863-Pro3

antrax Datentechnik is a business partner of mine. We are jointly consulting development projects for over 10 years. I assume that there’s not so many companies with so detailed knowledge about GE863-Pro3 and UC864-G. Along with the extension interface integrating UC864-G and/or GC864-QUAD to the BeagleBoard nearly any M2M application can be possible.

[...] Today I would like to show and to talk about a new embedded Linux based application for wireless M2M. The PCB is already in use in several projects. Based on its enclosure it can be used as a final product for end users. It supports a lot of interfaces like SD card / MMC card,  GPIO Pins , AD / DA converter,  UARTs,  USB Device, USB Host, I2C, SPI and JTAG. At the GPIOs you will find PMW (Pulse Wide Modulation), counters and other intelligent channels.  At the picture you can see, that on USB is a 4GB memory stick in use. This stick can be replaced to any other USB device. By using of some kind of radio on USB you will get a GPRS to Wireless Sensor Network bridge. If this application with it 200 MIPS is not powerful enough, then just follow the link and find a M2M module on Android, Linux, Windows, Symbian and QNX [...]

[...] Santa, it has to be an Android powered smart phone, because I plan some own apps and do not like to burn to much money for licences. The other reason is that I have already an Android powered wireless M2M evaluation kit listed at: http://www.gsm-modem.de/M2M/m2m-faq/android-linux-qnx-symbian-and-windows-in-m2m-applications/ [...]
