The console is still based on the relatively low-end Rockchip RK3326 quad-core Cortex-A35 processor coupled with just 1GB RAM found in ODROID-Go Advance. It does the job for the emulators targetted by the platform, but for a wider range of emulators, a faster processor, and more memory would be nice to have. That s what the developers of KT R1 portable game console aim to achieve with a much more powerful Amlogic S922X hexa-core Cortex-A73/A55 processor and up to 4GB RAM. KT R1 preliminary specifications: SoC – Amlogic S922X hexa-core big.LITTLE processor with 4x Arm Cortex A73 cores @ up to 1.8 GHz, 2x Arm Cortex A53 cores @ 1.9 GHz, Arm Mali-G52MP4 GPU @ 846MHz; 12nm manufacturing process System Memory – 2GB or 4GB LPDDR4 RAM Storage – 16 to 128GB eMMC flash, microSD card slot Display 4-inch [ ]AdvertisementsPosted on December 24, 2020 by Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft) - No Comments on Actinius launches nRF9160 SoM and XBee module with NB-IoT, LTE Cat-M, and GPSActinius launches nRF9160 SoM and XBee module with NB-IoT, LTE Cat-M, and GPS Last year, Actinius launched Icarus IoT Board equipped with nRF9160 SiP providing GPS NB-IoT connectivity in Adafruit Feather form factor.

LoRaWAN is free, apart from the hardware costs, but for projects that need wider coverage and/or higher bitrate cellular connectivity is the way to go and we ve seen in the past that Hologram offers a free developer SIM card for global IoT projects plus some low-cost cellular IoT plans, as well as 1CNE plans to offer a 10-year plan for 10 Euros. Blues Wireless has taken a different approach as they combine hardware and cellular connectivity with their Notecard LTE-IoT modems (LTE Cat 1/Cat M or NB-IoT) shipping for 10 years of connectivity for up to 500MB data. Notecard has four variants with the following key features and specifications: MCU Arm Cortex-M4 MCU with 2MB flash Cellular connectivity NOTE-NBGL-500 Narrowband Cat-M/NB-IoT/GPRS (Global) via  Quectel BG95-M3 modem NOTE-NBNA-500 Narrowband Cat-M/NB-IoT (North America) via Quectel BG95-M1 modem NOTE-WBEX-500 LTE Cat-1 (Global) via Quectel [ ]AdvertisementsPosted on December 23, 2020December 23, 2020 by Abhishek Jadhav - No Comments on Use AutoTVM and uTVM to optimize ML workloads on embedded devices microcontrollersUse AutoTVM and uTVM to optimize ML workloads on embedded devices microcontrollers We are seeing a massive increase in resource-constraints for embedded devices due to a lack of mature software stacks. With the increase in open-source hardware, the available software support takes a considerable amount of time to develop AI/ML/DL applications. Some of the challenges faced today are that bare-metal devices do not have on-device memory management, and they do not have LLVM support. They are also hard to debug because of rigid programming and cross-compilation interfaces. Due to this, optimizing and deploying machine learning workloads to bare-metal devices today is difficult . To tackle these challenges, there have been developments to support TVM, an open-source machine learning compiler framework for CPUs, GPUs, and machine learning accelerators, on these bare-metal devices, and Apache TVM is running an open-source foundation to make this easy. µTVM is a component of TVM that brings broad framework support, powerful compiler middleware, and flexible autotuning and compilation capabilities to embedded platforms . TVM that features a microcontroller backend, is [ ]Posted on December 23, 2020 by Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft) - 9 Comments on Glasgow Interface Explorer is an iCE40 FPGA based hardware debugging tool (crowdfunding)Glasgow Interface Explorer is an iCE40 FPGA based hardware debugging tool (crowdfunding) We ve seen some pretty interesting boards for hardware hackers and reverse engineers in recent months with the likes of Ollie and Tigard USB debug boards that allow interfacing various hardware interfaces and/or flashing firmware to different types of target boards.
