KEOLABS announced that its IoTize embedded connectivity technology is nominated for a 2016 embedded AWARD in the Hardware category. IoTize is a turn-key connectivity solution that allows companies to add RF interfaces such as NFC and Bluetooth to their products without redesigning the product’s firmware.

The solution leverages on-chip debugging/programming resources to allow retrofit of existing product designs for the IoT in just days. The solution also renders the connectivity channel (NFC, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc.) transparent to a product’s embedded firmware. This means evolving connectivity from Bluetooth to Wi-Fi, for example, is as easy as connecting a new IoTize module to the product – no product firmware changes are required.

The embedded AWARD pays tribute to outstanding innovations in embedded technologies. The awards are attributed annually by a jury of industry experts in conjunction with the embedded world exhibition in Nuremberg, Germany.

“This nomination is a significant honor for a small but innovative organisation like KEOLABS,” stated Michael Leplatois, President, KEOLABS. “Having a KEOLABS’ innovation face off with technologies coming from industry leaders like ARM, is a great sign of encouragement from the industry.”

The IoTize project was introduced at KEOLABS in 2014. Since its inception, it has become a collaborative research project lead by KEOLABS with the participation of STMicroelectronics, Gemalto, the Laboratoire Informatique de Grenoble (LIG) and the ISEN engineering school in Toulon. The collaborative project will culminate in 2018 with the addition complete, scalable infrastructure for cloud-to-core security in the IoT.

At embedded world 2016, KEOLABS (Stand 4-103) will feature demonstrations of IoTize modules featuring NFC, Bluetooth Low Energy and Wi-Fi interfaces. Modules on demonstration with also feature use of Modbus and Serial (S3P) interfaces to the target product in addition to implementations using the debug/programming (SWD) interface. Visitors may also benefit from live demonstrations of how to IoTize systems using the new IoTize Development Kit – a complete tool installation for IoTize module configuration and creation of sample smartphone applications.
