Source: ZDNet A unique moment in history has begun as IoT and the fourth industrial revolution combine to evolve and shift the landscape of manufacturing. The ongoing digital transformation of manufacturing is having such a dramatic impact that it’s been dubbed the ‘fourth industrial revolution’. This revolution has just begun, but it is already changing…

Inspired by the open source initiative and to offer low-cost solution with non-constrained R&D flexibility, the TIPoT platform is developed based on free open source software, with the following notable features:

Low-cost hardware platform.
A variety of sensing and display accessories (current examples include light, temperature & humidity, sensing and LCD display).
Free, feature-rich Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
Free, feature-rich network protocol analyzer.
Open source operating system, Contiki (www.contiki-os.org), offers extensive design, research and development flexibility.
Arduino shield pinout compatible.
Software suite includes typical sensing, monitoring, and control application examples, as well as an end-to- end application framework, all using TCP/IPv6 protocol over IEEE 802.15.4.
Significantly lowers the cost for test/experimental R&D and/or prototyping on TCP/IPv6 over wireless sensor network.

Fitness, medical and healthcare industry
- design and development of tele-health monitoring devices, applications and services; and other wearable or portable monitoring and safety devices and relevant applications.
Sensing and control applications/services
- including smart home/office/building, industrial process control and monitoring, agricultural and environmental monitoring, robotics sensing and control, and so on.
Appliances and consumer electronics products
- using our technology as embedded smart communication and control module.

Researchers at universities, colleges, government and industrial research institutions/labs
- for implementing prototypes, establishing large-scale testbeds for experimental research and performance evaluation of applications, protocols, algorithms, as well as complete products, related to IoT and other relevant technologies
R&D engineers, science/technology enthusiasts, inventors, IoT device vendors, application developers, and service providers.
- for the design of novel IoT devices, applications, services, and fast development of prototypes, final products and tools.
Education community
- e.g. academic institutions and colleges, high schools, for classroom teaching, professional training, course projects, experiments, science fairs, etc.
- Teaching and technical training in embedded system programming, embedded operating systems, wireless sensor networks, network protocols, and so on. (Lecture notes and lab materials coming soon…)
