In the dynamic world of smartwatch technology, innovation is paramount, but profitability can be challenging. This guide outlines key strategies for success, focusing on understanding consumer needs, leveraging advanced technology, and ensuring proper design decisions.
IoT device designs that are overspecified with powerful electronic components and high-energy-consuming operating systems significantly add to carbon emissions. With a mandate to reach zero carbon footprint and with a prediction that the number of connected devices are likely to hit 30 billion by 2030, manufacturers are increasingly seeking out and adopting sustainable designs that reduce the environmental footprint of their products.
ESG (environmental, social, and governance) and digital transformation are megatrends that go hand in hand. Almost all tech giants now have sustainability pledges and plans embedded into their innovation process to align with stakeholder, investor, and consumer expectations.
Following its success in the cloud and IT world, the adoption of containers is gaining momentum in the embedded world due to the real business and technical value they deliver. They can effectively address some of the most pressing challenges faced by the embedded industry, such as the costly and time-consuming outdated development methods, and the cumbersome process of porting software components to other projects.
An embedded web server is a small, lightweight web server designed to be integrated into other software or hardware systems with limited resources. When it comes to IoT devices, choosing an embedded web server is a decision that can greatly impact performance and costs. These small web servers are essential for providing a web-based interface for monitoring and controlling devices, but there are several challenges to their development that must be addressed.
Picture yourself as an embedded developer, challenged with the task of building a GUI for an embedded systems, for example sportwatch that needs to display a wealth of information, from health and fitness stats to text messages and social media updates. But how can you create a user-friendly interface that’s both responsive and power-efficient, given the device’s limited resources and processing power?
JavaScript is increasingly being recognized as a versatile language for embedded systems development. Its high-level abstractions simplify coding, making it an excellent choice for rapid prototyping and testing.
We always talk about prototyping a website or a mobile application. Have you ever heard of prototyping IoT and embedded products?
With its small footprint, portability, modularity, and built-in reliability, Java has become a game-changer for embedded systems. Solutions like MicroEJ VEE bring Java’s benefits to resource-constrained devices, making it possible to develop powerful, efficient, and future-proof applications.
