u-blox selects ARM mbed Iot Device Platform for Iot wireless connectivity

u-blox has selected the ARM® mbed™ IoT Device Platform for customers creating host-less Internet of Things (IoT) wireless applications. By adopting the open ARM mbed environment and the u-blox ODIN-W2 module, designers can rapidly develop and deploy wireless IoT applications with ease. Initially aimed at u-blox’s ODIN-W2 multiradio module, the availability of the ARM mbed development environment, tools and libraries, allows embedded developers access to the wireless module’s ARM Cortex®-M4 based microcontroller. This means that an extremely broad range of sensor and actuator-based IoT designs can be implemented on a single compact certified wireless module. Without the need for an external host, MCU designers can not only save significant bill of materials cost, development resources and specialist wireless design capabilities, but also keep the board footprint to an absolute minimum. In addition, the module’s open standard approach ensures ease of IoT connectivity.
