Enhance user experience by leveraging IoT smart wireless modules that utilize Android™ and Linux.
Smart modules enable developers to create IoT devices more like consumer gadgets. Our IoT smart modules simplify architecture with integrated functionalities, expanding solution capabilities fast. The option to use Android or Linux offers limitless opportunities. Android facilitates smooth and flexible development of applications, providing developers with an accessible and streamlined process. It also connects them to the largest software ecosystem available, enhancing opportunities for innovative solutions. Linux allows to leverage a well-established Operating System in IoT, offering extensive software options and a deep accumulated expertise for robust and legacy-compatible solutions.
We don’t view smart modules as commodity components. These modules are innovation enablers because of how seamless we have made connectivity, software and hardware integration. Our SE250B4 smart module development kit is a quick-setup tool featuring our smart module (powered by Qualcomm® QCM2290 and Android and Linux).
Diverse markets are adopting IoT devices with Android. Our smart modules offer multistandard wireless connectivity and peripherals to support multiple architectures and applications.
Thermostats and home panels move from module-plus-microcontroller units to integrated solutions.
Vending machines and point-of-sale registers that include touch screens are a good fit for smart modules.
The rearview and low-resolution dash and body camera vertical is expanding to include telematics.
Smart modules will enable enhanced PDAs, scanners and bar code readers with screens, and IoT solutions for first responders.
What Is a Smart Module?
Smart modules are connected edge intelligence enablers. They allow device manufacturers to create IoT devices (e.g., home thermostats and vending machines) with touch-scroll-swipe consumer multimedia experiences.
They integrate with ease to offer high-speed computing performance, including graphical processing and peripheral management. They can deliver wireless connectivity through multiple technologies.
As with consumer devices, developers must navigate hardware and software intersections to utilize Android and meet customers’ expectations.
The right IoT solution — and partner — can simplify development in this complex environment. They can ensure the final product elevates user experience with comprehensive multimedia functions while lowering data rates.
