This is an introduction to IoT.<\/p>\n
You cannot avoid IoT. It is spreading everywhere in all parts of life. Manufacturing, smart cities, transportation, retail, healthcare, energy, public safety, and agriculture according to the slide. But it\u2019s in real life too \u2026 fridges, TVs, ambient devices, etc. IoT is one of the methods of Digital Transformation.<\/p>\n
IoT is not new and it is complex, but Microsoft is trying to make it easier. Integrate the technology into the device (intelligent edge), and use the power of cloud to gather data, filter\/process it, and make use of it (intelligent cloud).<\/p>\n
MS has been in the embedded business for over 20 years. Lots of competition: Linux, Wind, Ubuntu, AndroidTGhings, raspberry, redhat, ARMmbed, Riot, Tizen. Windows is mature. It can get to market faster, has security built in, is deisgned for the intelligent edge.<\/p>\n
Jimmy Chen takes over.<\/p>\n
Building IoT devices isn\u2019t that easy. \u201cBuilding a device is as easy as building an app\u201d \u2013 not really, but that is the aspiration. Build on Windows, using familiar tools (Visual Studio) and managing it using familiar tools. Things like speech, touch, and ink are embedded.<\/p>\n
Visual Studio: C#, HTML\/JS\/ C++ and more. One Dev Center for pulling back device information. Legacy applications can work on most editions of Windows.<\/p>\n
Using Windows IoT embedded, then drivers\/firmware are easier. You use the system features and APIs to use the hardware, and use background services for long running tasks. Specialized hardware still requires drivers, but this isn\u2019t that common.<\/p>\n
Windows 10 IoT innovations:<\/p>\n
App Servicing for IoT:<\/p>\n
We see a video from a service called Xogo: an app that can turn any Windows 10 device into a digital sign: www.xogo.io<\/a><\/p>\n Two kinds of connections: connect to the cloud and connecting to the legacy devices that you already have. Windows 10 IoT has all the APIs for connecting to the cloud built in. Every IoT device connects to the same URL in Azure. You have to configure which IoT Hub you need to connect to. Device is manufactured with an ID from the Azure IoT Hub Device Provisioning Service. The device is shipped to the customer and connects to the UIiT Hub Device Provisioning Service. That knows which Azure IoT hub to register the device to. Assymetric keys are sent to the device, which then uses that information to connect directly to the IoT Hub.<\/p>\n Intelligence at the edge:<\/p>\n Vision, speech, and sensor perception open up powerful industry scenarios using:<\/p>\n You need cloud to scale to more than just a few devices. App servicing and telemetry via the Windows Store.<\/p>\n Building a trusted device\/solution starts with the device:<\/p>\n Threat resistance:<\/p>\n Data protection in-motion:<\/p>\n Cloud Security<\/p>\n Response:<\/p>\n This is all about managing the device. Enterprise scale is 100,000 devices apparently \u2013 typical MDM might be fine. When you go into millions of devices, you need to use the Azure IoT management solution: IoT Hub.<\/p>\n You can easily:<\/p>\n You can build all the security, management, AI, etc yourself on another platform, but Windows 10 IoT and Azure have all that ready to use.<\/p>\n FarmBeats is a MS Research project to reduce the cost of farming and to make it smarter. Uses sensors, helium balloons with vision sensors, and drones. Comms based on the unused TV spectrum. They use a heatmap of the farm to plan crop management, using Azure Machine Learning.<\/p>\n Opportunities to build smarts into all kinds of systems are possible. Businesses can consume and\u00a0use<\/em> data with AI-based intelligence, or can optimise existing dumb systems to improve production, reduce times, decrease waste, optimize human effort, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Speakers: Adi Hariharan (Group Marketing Manager Windows IoT) and Jimmy Chen (Senior Consultant PDS Sales \u2013 IoT) This is an introduction to IoT.
