ECE2015IOTPlayground

IoT Playground at Eclipsecon Europe 2015

The IoT Playground allows everyone to show what they are doing. Anyone can play! Companies can present their IoT-related hardware, software, tools, and gadgets, and individuals can show what they are designing, building, and using. Hands-on activities will help attendees learn, share, and show off a bit. So pack your latest IoT toy, and hang out at the Playground.

Submissions

Bitreactive

"Build Applications with the Eclipse IoT Java Stack, Block by Block" We want to show how we use Reactive Blocks to make IoT applications running on gateways based on EPL code. Visitors will see how they can take advantage of the Eclipse IoT Stack for Java to make new innovative solutions. We will bring a few demos:

• Selfie application (from Eclipsecont playground 2015)
• Connected Camera (from Embedded World 2015)
• Connected greenhouse( Hackathon with Sierra Wireless)
• The Raspberry Pi Eclipse IoT car
• Kura Configurable intruder detection (from M2M Summit 2015)
• Running lego trains.

Polarsys

I would like to apply for a slot at the IoT playground to present/improve the PolarSys rover demo. The idea of using PolarSys tools to create a nice Rover demo has been around for some time, but since few months, we start having interesting contributions:

• Artal, a PolarSys member is developing a use case for a Park Assist with the Rover (still to be documented)
• ETS Montréal, an engineering school in Canada is using the Rover demo to promote their lightweight approach for Systems Engineering standardized as ISO 29110

Our goal is to come with the demonstrator as it will exist in November, and to:

• show the demonstrator to the attendees
• show how we use the PolarSys tools to develop it
• improve the rover demo with the help of attendees and the other IoT experts

We will come with few Rover kits, new sensors to add to the Rover platform, and new ideas for improvements. In terms of improvements, we would love to add image recognition or voice recognition so that the Rover either goes to faces he recognizes, or the Rover can be directed by simple orders like forward, left, right, stop… Also, adding a camera and taking photos that are transmitted through MQTT to the remote controller could be a good addition.

Protos

The eTrice project would like to participate in the IoT playground at EclipseCon Europe. We would like to show how to create Automation Control Systems (or other embedded systems) using eTrice and connecting them via M2M protocols like MQTT. We would use a little toy machine (60x60 cm) to demonstrate tools and application.

Everything we show is open source, so was not sure if an application is necessary.

EclipseSource

We will demonstrate an example use case for the Eclipse Smart Home project. We will bring a complete lego house, equipped with working sensors and switches. All devices are connected to and controlled by a running instance of Eclipse Smart Home. We demonstrate working use cases such as light control, door locking, etc. Furthermore, we want to talk about our experiences and visions about using Eclipse Smart Home for home automation.

logi.cals

Smart IoT wine decanting machine

How does a gadget for quite heavy and valuable bottles of wine turn into a smart, fully automated decanting machine? By using the automation experts of logi.cals and their professional tools, and then adding some “M2M” and “IoT” features.

logi.RTS, the professional run-time system from logi.cals running on a Raspberry Pi, combined with MQTT provides the basis for communicating with Twitter, the social media platform. If a posting contains the word “Wine” and also the hashtag “@logidecanter”, the pouring process automatically starts. The required communication interfaces are integrated directly in logi.RTS which avoids the need for a middleware. The Eclipse-based engineering toolkit logi.CAD 3, enables IEC 61131-3 standard PLC programming on micro-controllers such as Arduino Nano or as in this case a Raspberry Pi, to multi-core industrial PCs.

OSGi

OSGi app developers are invited to participate in an IoT playground competition at the OSGi Community Event 2015, co-located with ECE 2015. The contest will demonstrate how OSGi was made for the Internet of Things as participants control a model LEGO® train track that runs multiple trains simultaneously at the event. The train and track playground will illustrate the OSGi advantage of being able to reliably share code from the cloud all the way down to actuators and sensors in an IoT environment.

An application manages the overall track from the cloud and provides a user interface to set assignments and show the system’s state. It communicates with edge devices that control the LEGO® trains: the switches, signals, RFID readers, and other elements. The cloud also manages all the software deployments in the system. Developers will be able to assign tasks to the trains and see how the trains navigate the tracks. An SDK for the playground will be available Oct. 1 at https://github.com/osgi/osgi.iot.contest.sdk. Follow @OSGiAlliance on Twitter for updates and reminders.

Arduino Designer The Arduino Designer[1] is born from our desire to give kids a tool to code the real world and from our aspiration to make Eclipse accessible to them. The idea was to develop a new software to allow kids to create small programs for Arduino[2]. The Arduino Designer is based on the Sirius[3] project which allows to create really easily graphical designer.
