Osprey visual IOT platform
Since IOT is still in its early stage, researchers must establish standards between procedures and data for Osprey system diagram of connected equipment. The best approach is to start with a series of standards for industrial design components. Osprey uses the best components, such as quark and Ferri EMMC ® And sm750 embedded graphics card to establish an ideal small and low-power computer display platform. The built-in 4-port USB hub and audio provide powerful functions and interfaces.
Nowadays, gesture based GUI is quite common. Osprey can form an ideal visual IOT product development platform through visualization and touch interaction. Interactive touch display is an effective method for users to communicate with IOT devices. Osprey is an open platform that supports Linux and QT graphics library. Its support for x86 isa means support for a large number of software from operating system to application.
Osprey function description
Intel quark X1000 is a 32-bit Pentium SOC and has a good foundation in the existing x86 software. Quark includes a wide range of I / OS, such as Ethernet, USB hosts and devices, serial ports, SPI, SDIO and GPIO ports. PCI-E port is used to connect sm750 GPU, while SDIO interface is connected to Ferri EMMC ®。 Like Intel's Galileo system, Osprey also makes use of its compatibility with the Arduino shield card connector to support the familiar Arduino integrated development environment. The shield I / O card supports wireless (Wi Fi, Bluetooth, ZigBee), sensors, relays, motor control, networks and other devices. The Arduino shield ecosystem uses cards compatible with the existing Arduino uno R3 pin layout (Arduino 1.0 pin assignment).
Ferri-eMMC ® Integrating mature controller technology, NAND flash and components into an industry standard 100 ball BGA and 1.0mm pitch package can provide more flexible PCB design and low-cost production in equipment conforming to JEDEC 4.5 protocol.
Functions include:
Advanced ECC management, including error correction, bad block management and health monitoring, can provide robust data integrity and protection.
Datarefresh and early retirement can ensure data reliability and increase advanced protection against unstable power supply or sudden power failure.
Advanced loss balanced allocation scheme / erase cycle across all NAND flash memory devices, combined with low write amplification factor, maximizes memory service life.
It can be achieved in commercial grade (- 25 ° C to 85 ° C) and industrial grade temperature (- 40 ° C to 85 ° C).
2GB to 32GB capacity configuration is available.

Osprey open platform – visual IOT application
Entry level human machine interface (HMI) is an ideal application of Osprey open mode platform. IOT devices need a man-machine interface to access the system architecture, and small and low-power visual touch system is the perfect combination of local user interface control. You can create an application by connecting a touch display to Osprey. The touch screen can be connected to the built-in USB hub or through a serial port. USB hubs are used for other devices, including scanners, printers, or card readers. Entry level signage products use components designed for industrial applications to reduce power consumption and occupy a small area. Industrial HMI, test equipment, POS and medical panel equipment are very suitable for product applications based on Osprey platform.
Industrial and consumer IOT – different requirements
Consumer IOT applications (such as touch screens in smart devices and smart displays) require low power consumption, small size and low development cost. They can connect to the Internet, control network devices, access e-mail, play music and video, and connect to cloud and social network applications without another computer or computing device. Simple visual user interface has a wide range of applications. Osprey provides a visual IOT platform for product application design and development. Imagine the home appliance control panel used as a digital photo frame to display digital photos, including today's smart phones and tablet devices, which can control the volume. The monitor can enter sleep mode when there is no one around, and can wake up through dynamic sensing function when someone enters the area.
In the production environment, Osprey can provide a display for the operator interface and a second display driven video through the detection camera on the assembly line. The captured video can be scaled and displayed in the window of the operator panel (with HMI control), while the high-resolution version can drive the second display for higher definition. Sensor and diagnostic data (local and over the network) can be viewed through two displays to provide operators with more real-time information, thereby improving efficiency and productivity. These are just some of the many product ideas Osprey can realize.
summary
