How Intel Technology Enables IoT (July 29, 2014):
The world is undergoing a dramatic transformation, rapidly transitioning from isolated systems to ubiquitous Internet-enabled “things” capable of generating data that can be analyzed to extract valuable information. Commonly referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT), this new reality will enrich everyday life, increase business productivity, improve efficiency, and more. Intel® technology is designed to help you get to market faster and allow users to scale solutions across a variety of platforms. Watch to learn more.

Intel® Gateway Solutions for IoT (June 3, 2014): [the “Moon Islandproduct portfolio]
Billions of things that affect virtually every aspect of our lives are becoming connected and sharing data in the Internet of Things (IoT). This connectivity is critical to generating the intelligence that can transform business, but how do you get valuable data off of legacy equipment securely, without replacing existing infrastructure? Intel® Gateway Solutions for the Internet of Things connect legacy and new systems, and enable seamless and secure data flow between edge devices and the cloud, unlocking the value of industrial data. Intel, along with McAfee and Wind River, provides pre-integrated, pre-validated hardware and software building blocks, with security, connectivity, and manageability features that speed to time to market and reduce deployment costs.

“Liffy Island” for H2’15 and “Seal Beach” for 2016 (source: Myce.com, Nov 19, 2014):

Commonality (only the major ones, for more details see the slides):

  • Single core, Single thread, @533MHz, 64KB L1 cache, up to 2GB DDR3 RAM
    (the existing Intel® Quark™ SoC X1000 [Clanton: Q4’13-Q2’14] is only @400MHz, 16KB L1 cache)

Intel Quark 'Liffy Island' SoCs for IoT -- Nov-2014

Intel Quark 'Seal Beach' SoCs for IoT -- Nov-2014

Specifics to “Seal Beach” (only the major ones, for more details see the slides above):

  • Windows OS Support + the ones emphasized by Intel on the slide below

Intel Quark 'Seal Beach' SoC differences from 'Liffy Island' SoC  -- Nov-2014

With Quark range of products now completed Intel provided the following design-in recommendations (retyped from an Intel slide with related Intel video inserts by myself):

  • Intel® Quark™ SoC X1000 – 2014 [Clanton: Q4’13-Q2’14– Fast Time to Market

Intel IoT Gateway solution - 2014

Intel® Gateway Solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT) (April 8, 2014):Targeting industrial, energy, and transportation markets in the Internet of Things (IoT), Intel intelligent gateway solutions connect legacy and new systems and enable seamless and secure data flow between edge devices and the cloud. In this video from Embedded World 2014, Craig Owen, a solution architect at Intel, demonstrates a model train system equipped with two Intel® Galileo boards based on the Intel® Quark™ SoC X1000 application processor that act as sensors for temperature, light, distance, and weight, and connect to the cloud.

Smart Cities USA: San Jose, CA (June 26, 2014)
Fast-growing, future-focused cities like San Jose, California are leading the way in harnessing the power of the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart technologies to help them manage sustainability challenges. San Jose deployed a platform using Intel® Gateway Solutions for the IoT with an Intel® Quark™ processor and third-party sensors to provide real-time data on air quality, with plans to also measure water quality, noise, traffic, temperature and other quality-of-life metrics. Improvements in these systems promise to transform everyday life in U.S. cities and around the world. The joint project was showcased as part of the White House SmartAmerica Challenge.

An Intelligent Gateway For Smart Energy (June 30, 2014):
Intel, Tatung and Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) are working together in Taiwan on an Internet of Things (IoT) application focused on smart energy savings for businesses. The newly developed intelligent gateway integrates an Intel® Quark™ SoC and combines the I/O board to provide a smart connection between energy management systems and other commercial building devices. Intel, Tatung and ECS have now completed first-step verification with excellent performance on a smart, energy-saving conference room. The next step will be to realize an entire smart building. Learn more about the Internet of Things: http://intel.ly/1qaTy6B.
