Cross-Platform Smart Home Demos Running on NXP MCUs powered MicroEJ and Linux i.MX 93

Experience seamless application portability between NXP microcontrollers and Linux-based microprocessors through MicroEJ’s latest demos shown at CES 2025. Building on the NXP Platform Accelerator introduced at CES 2024, this demo set illustrates how embedded applications can effortlessly scale across devices—from low-power MCUs to high-performance MPUs—using MicroEJ’s software container technology.

 

 

Our first demo showcases a smart thermostat running on two different NXP hardware platforms: the RW612 microcontroller powered by MICROEJ VEE, and the i.MX 93 application processor running Linux. With the same codebase, the app provides temperature monitoring, cloud communication, and remote configuration via a web interface—proving true portability between MCU and Linux environments.

The second demo features VEE Energy, MicroEJ’s solution for smart metering and grid intelligence, integrated on the NXP MCX N947 microcontroller. It simulates real-time power consumption and sends data via MQTT to a live web dashboard. Completing the smart home showcase, a graphically rich washing machine app runs on the i.MX 93 with Linux, demonstrating scalable UI and optional features like lock modes.

These demos highlight the power of writing once and deploying anywhere—bridging the gap between NXP MCU platforms Powered by MicroEJ and Linux MPUs.
