ARM unveils platforms to accelerate mass deployment of IoT devices

ARM has released the ARM mbed IoT Device Platform, a suite of products to accelerate secure IoT technology deployments at scale by businesses. The platform includes mbed Device Connector, a free service that businesses can use to connect and securely manage IoT devices. It also includes the enhanced mbed OS and mbed Reference Designs. It is claimed that the products will shorten hardware design time, giving innovators greater ability to focus on product differentiation.

Krisztian Flautner, general manager, IoT business, ARM said: “ARM mbed partners now have access to the fundamental building blocks to develop and securely deploy IoT devices at any scale. Since the launch of the mbed IoT Device Platform last year, we have focused our efforts on providing the mbed Partnership with the tools to scale deployments from a single cloud-connected sensor to a host of more intricate devices that enterprise-grade IoT solutions demand.”

Businesses deploying IoT applications need to address all aspects of connectivity, security and productivity. To accelerate this, ARM has also created two reference platforms as part of a roadmap of mbed Reference Designs that is says will help developers cut the time from prototype to final device design with the use of open-source resources.

The two reference platforms include the mbed Wearable Reference Design, a wrist-based connected device capable of delivering an interactive user-experience while achieving a battery life of around eight weeks; and the mbed Smart City Reference Design aimed at infrastructure monitoring and smart industrial applications using Sub-GHz 6LoWPAN & CoAP mesh network protocols for large numbers of devices.

The mbed Smart City Reference Design is said to support quick deployment, configuration and management of routers and end devices compatible with a variety of backhaul technologies in industrial applications that will reduce the bill of materials for end devices.

More than 55 partners have joined the mbed Partnership Programme in the past year. All of whom are investing resources to support the mbed IoT Device Platform, with around 250 dedicated engineers now involved.
