 Hi, I'm Tim Boyd and we're at Embedded World 2020 at the Toradex booth and we're demonstrating the IMX-6 on our Apollos module with our customers product IPEC and a system crawler. You can have your your pipeline inspection system which has our Apollos IMX-6 right down here. You can inspect the pipeline in case you have any problems. So, yeah, but for now we're having it like have them race a little bit with each other. So it's actually pretty cool because we can have this really four-wheel system compete with each other. Not really the intended way, but I think it makes it really really cool. Hi, Joe Barks. Nice to meet you. So this is an example of what our customers are doing with our system on modules. This is a robot which is used in laboratories and here you see basically it uses our module. They make their customer board with their power designs and drivers to actually control. It's built inside here in the back of this unit to control this robotic arm. And this is used for DNA tests, blood tests and laboratories and the robot basically picks one of these vessels. In this case, it's just a simple shakes it, you know, to basically mix up what's inside the class. But in real life in real life these robots could be four meters long and have 70 different or more stations of chemical processing and lab samples, right? And it changes the tool here and it communicates to the some basically to change the tool and repeats several lab tasks. So this is the one that's inside. Yes. And at Tornex you're perfect to do all these kinds of special projects. Yes, so the thing is I can show you the wall where we show all the different modules we basically have. You just follow me. So so here here you basically see our families, the Apollos family, you see the Colibri family, and that's families you have since multiple years and they pin compatible with each other. And that's our new family, the Verdun family, which is using a newer processor. The iMix 8M has a new interface layout, but I tell you Simon, he will tell you more about basically our products. Hi, I'm Simon and I would like to introduce Verdun family of computer modules. So Verdun is a new family. It's focusing on ease of use, being compatibility and a nice out-of-the-box experience. It is building on the success of Colibri and Apollos form factors and it is the result of 15 years of experience in developing system of modules. We also have some already some solutions from our partners. These products and the carrier boards which you see here are all based on Verdun as a family. It's an interesting and funny fact that development of some of these products happened in less than two weeks. So here I'm having the Verdun iMix 8M mini system on module in my hand. It has USB 2.0 OTG and host. It has a number of high-speed interfaces too, and this is really the first module in the world in family of products. It is based on NXB's iMix 8M mini SOC and it is offering a lot of convenience features for new customers. It really supports short time to market and it is in the low to medium power range to offer a nice solution for anyone interested. So this is the very important next gen? Exactly. So this is a successor of our very successful Colibri family. It is building on next generation technologies, high-speed interfaces, but it's very important. We always want to have it easy to use and ready to work out of the box. So all the stuff you learned by doing this and this you chose the best, your customers said what they wanted and you put the best up over here? Exactly. So the development of Verdun is also based on extensive customer and market research. We had a number of service and when we settled for the interfaces we are choosing for Verdun, we really optimized the interface layout and also the pin-out to make sure that the needs of our customers are really reflected in this new family of products. All right. So it's a big launch here at Abended World. Yes, and we are happy to be here, happy to have Verdun here and happy to have all the carrier boards and our partners here. And now we are walking to Brandon. Hello. So I'm Brandon Shibley, CTO of Toradex and here we have Torizon here at Embedded World. Torizon for Toradex is a easy to use industrial Linux platform. So it's, you know, we're providing a binary Linux distribution. It's built with the Octo project, but we're providing it in a form that it's ready to be used by our customers for Toradex products. So the idea is our customers can take Torizon Core, deploy it on their system and build their application in a container without having to rebuild the entire Linux stack from source code. So you can see some of the guiding principles here of Torizon, things like ease of use, time to market, the ability to provide updates to devices in the field via an over-the-air update client, and we're also providing variants of Torizon Core patch for real-time performance. So if you look around the booth here, we have demos about Torizon showing getting started with Torizon Core, how to develop an application with Torizon Core, how to use containers with embedded Linux, which is fundamental to working with Torizon Core. Also over here, we're showing the over-the-air update service. This is a service that we've launched on Toradex Labs. So it's still an experimental product from Toradex, but it's an OTA service, cloud-based. You can see the the web front end here that we're demoing. So you can manage devices and push updates to a fleet of devices. And so that's the demo here. So this is four different systems running with Toradex hardware running Torizon Core, and we can push an update. And so if you do... Let's see here. If you want to initiate an update, you select an update package, and it will initialize an update. So what it's communicated with the devices here, they will pull down the latest version of the software, and then when everything is complete, it'll initiate a reboot. But we can also cut power to any of these devices during the process to highlight, you know, the resiliency to power cuts. So you'll see that when they've downloaded the image, the new version of the image will have a different color splash screen. Also the application will show a different version number when it's been updated. So this process takes a little bit of time, but that's that's what the demo is showing. Did you have some new considerations with Virgen and the whole Torizon sphere? Yeah, it all plays into Toradex values, things like time to market, ease of use for our customers. So both are designed to allow our customers to develop a product quickly. So around Torizon Core, it's about providing a solution that's ready to be used out of the box. And same thing with Virgen. When you're developing a carrier board with Virgen, it should be simple to take our design guide and our reference designs and quickly build a custom carrier board. So, you know, Torizon Core uses some interesting technology like OS Tree, which is a way to revision control the file system of the of the device. And this is a mechanism that's used for, you know, managing changes to the file system and being able to push new versions to devices. So I think that is the basics here. Obviously containers obviously play a big role here. Like I said, customers building applications in containers are partners also providing solutions. The big launch is a big important event for Toradex to launch a new platform. Yeah, so we've had we previously had Apollos and Calibri. And so Virgen is building on the heritage of our previous product lines. And so with, you know, Virgen, we really are basing the design of this family off of 15 years of experience with Calibri Apollos. And now we have Virgen, which is a small form factor, some with an edge connector. This is a more dense edge connector than what's used on Calibri. It's 260 pins and it's designed also with thermal solutions in mind. So we have some thermal solutions available soon in the also launching with two carrier boards. So a full development board as well as a nice simple smaller board that's nice for evaluation and getting started with Virgen. A lot of bandwidth. Yeah, there's a high speed interfaces brought out here higher speed than we had on Calibri, for example, which was designed years ago. So Virgen, we now design with these newer, more modern high speed interfaces in mind. Things like PCI Express, USB three gigabit ethernet and CSI, DSI, things like that. So all right. So let's go. Yeah, let's let's bring you over here to. We're also showing solutions around Android and QNX. So I'll introduce you here to Leonardo. Hello, my name is Leonardo. I work for the technical marketing team at Toradex and I'm here presenting Android and QNX. So basically Android has been running on Toradex harder for a while. And here we have an Apollos Mx8 quad max hooked to the HDMI display that you can see right in front of you. And this Android is is an offering from one of our partners, Kinetics. And we have a policy in which it is open source so you can customize it by yourself. You have a third party customize it and it also has some nice features such as integrated over the Arab date from Kinetics and others. On the QNX side, we also have it running on Apollos Mx8 quad max and this is brand new. Basically, QNX has done the part to this hardware and it supports out of the box our 10 inch LVDS display with the touch screen. This application specifically does not have touch screen, but it is supported on the QNX BSP. And basically you can install it with two clicks from our Toradex easy installer feed, which is very convenient. And then you can later download the QNX BSP and QNX BSP and SDK and further customize it or have also a third party customize it. So here we add a very convenient way to test QNX and we save a lot of cost for the customer because the part is already done. So you need to customize it only further for your specific needs. So what's the main advantage or what's special about QNX? OK, QNX is a real-time operating system that looks very much like Linux. So you have a very similar directory structure. It is POSIX compliant, which means that you can easily port a Linux app to QNX. And besides being an RTOS, it is also certifiable for many safety applications. So you can have the ASL certification and others like for automotive and health. So usually customers, they tend to use QNX when they can't use Linux because of the reliability. So QNX is really a safety RTOS. If you have a patient hooked to a vital machine. With full GPU accelerated UIs. Yes, yes, it's running OpenGL ES application here. So it has the full graphics stack and it's accelerated. And now I'd like to introduce you to my co-worker Guilherme. So I'm Guilherme and we are showing here soft PLC implementation using Codesys. We have here one of our boards. It's actually built by one of the partners, a K-Hairboard, a HMI K-Hairboard. And we are running here the Colibri IMX 8X, which is based on i.MX 8X from NXP. And basically this device is connected on an EtherCAT industrial network to an IO slave. Yeah, and in this IO slave, it's digital IO inputs and outputs. And we are running Codesys runtime inside Toradex model. And here is the Codesys IDA, which basically it's connected to the model. And we can monitor all the behavior. If I change the switches, I have the behavior here. Or I can use this as an HMI and set the buzzer. Yeah, and the cool thing about this demo, it's built on the top of our Torizon platform. We are using Torizon Core and three different containers to implement the web interface, the Codesys runtime and the GraphQL server. So what's the main advantage of using Codesys? So Codesys is one, it's a market leader in soft PLC. So for use cases where you want that the end user is capable to program your device, Codesys is a good platform because offers a standard IEC 61131 programming languages and implements all that, which is widely spread by the industrial automation market. So you find a lot of developers capable to use this kind of tools. Okay, thanks for watching.
