Designing IoT systems with a DIY approach, in collaboration with AWS - Launch of the joint open-source project "Degu" by six companies.
Atmark Techno, Seeed, Corestaff, NXP Japan, Taiyo Yuden, and Nordic Semiconductor jointly launched the sensor technology project "Degu" on March 15, 2019, which allows for the design of mesh network-compatible IoT systems with a DIY approach.
The lack of standard technologies for device design and cloud connectivity in IoT systems has become a barrier to launching new IoT businesses. The Degu project aims to enable even inexperienced engineers to design IoT systems with a DIY mindset by providing development information such as circuit diagrams and basic software necessary for designing the mesh network-compatible IoT device "Degu Sensor" as open source on GitHub.
The Degu Sensor is compatible with AWS IoT Core. By uploading pre-processed data on the Degu Sensor, sensing data can be immediately utilized in various services such as machine learning, deep learning, and BI on AWS.
A starter kit will be available from April 10. Additionally, a custom order service for mass production is planned, allowing for a consistent realization of Degu specifications from PoC (proof of concept) to productization.
