SensiML Teams with Infineon to Provide Complete AI/ML Solution for PSoC™ 6 MCUs and Wide Range of Sensors

SensiML | February 09, 2022

SensiML™ Corporation, a leading developer of AI tools for building intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) endpoints, today announced that it has teamed with Infineon Technologies to deliver a complete AI/Machine Learning (ML) solution for the Infineon PSoC™ 6 family of microcontrollers (MCUs) and the wide range of sensors they support. The collaboration combines SensiML's Analytics Toolkit AI development software with the Infineon ModusToolbox™ and ultra-low power dual-core PSoC 6 MCUs, offering developers a quick and easy way to record data from Infineon XENSIV™ sensors, create sophisticated AI/ML-based models, and implement them on PSoC 6 MCUs. Using this approach, designers with little to no data science expertise can add local intelligence to their IoT designs for smart home, industrial, fitness, and other applications.

SensiML and Infineon are marking the beginning of the collaboration with a "Build AI for the IoT Design Challenge" on Hackster.io. The contest will challenge innovators to use the SensiML Data Analytics Toolkit and Infineon ModusToolbox™ software along with Infineon's XENSIV sensors, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connectivity ICs, and PSoC 6 MCUs to capture and label sensor data, train AI/ML models, and deploy the resulting AI/ML solution on a PSoC 6 MCU to create intelligent endpoint applications. The goal of the challenge is to highlight how quick and easy it is for developers to use the complete end-to-end development platform provided by the two companies to implement local, low power, sophisticated AI-based IoT edge devices.

The SensiML Analytics Toolkit uses labeled datasets to quickly create efficient AI models and allows developers to use them to implement smart, high performance edge algorithms without the need for hand coding or data science expertise. This toolkit nicely complements the PSoC 6 family, which is based on an ultra-low power architecture ideal for battery-powered edge IoT applications. The PSoC 6 family features dual-core Arm® Cortex®-M4 and Cortex-M0+ processors, which enable design partitioning for simultaneous power/performance design optimization. The dual-core architecture also enables users to run their AI application generated by the SensiML tools on one processor, and their application code on the other processor.

"Infineon has a large and loyal following for their innovative and extensive sensors, MCUs, and associated development tools. SensiML complements that offering with AI/ML tools that make it easy for developers to add sophisticated AI functions in a small memory footprint with ultra-low power consumption. With AutoML support covering a broad array of sensor inputs, SensiML is an ideal solution for IoT edge processing across Infineon's XENSIV portfolio."

Chris Rogers, chief executive officer of SensiML

"SensiML offers a quick and easy path for our PSoC 6 MCU, connectivity and sensor customers to add low-power, local intelligence to their edge IoT applications," said Steve Tateosian, vice president of IoT Compute and Wireless Product and Business Line at Infineon. "Through our mutual collaboration, we can now offer a complete suite of software and hardware development tools and products, enabling developers and Hackathon participants to create next-generation smart endpoint IoT devices for a wide range of end uses."

1NCE Delivers Freedom From IoT Vendor Lock-In

businesswire | August 16, 2023

1NCE, an IoT software and connectivity company available in 158 countries, today announced the launch of Freedom to Switch – the company’s future-proof answer to the vendor lock-in issues that plague the IoT industry. 1NCE embraces open standards as a part of the company’s core principles. At no additional cost, the company’s new Freedom to Switch feature offers customers peace of mind to make future changes during the lifetime of their devices. The company’s new industrial SIM cards and chips include eUICC technology that ensures 1NCE customers are prepared for any eventuality. Customers can now add or switch to another connectivity provider without having to touch their device – avoiding the costly expense of truck roll and field service. “In IoT, scopes change and data insights evolve, so customers should always have the freedom to switch. 1NCE thinks it should be a fundamental right for customers to add or change a provider over the lifetime of an IoT project – even if that means leaving us,” said Ivo Rook, Chief Operating Officer at 1NCE. Also new for 1NCE customers is the ability to create test profiles, which help optimize the supply chain by testing connectivity during manufacturing. The test profile is a unique type of operator profile that’s designed specifically for end-of-line tests. Without changing the SIM, customers can use AT commands to switch from the 1NCE profile to the test profile, perform necessary tests with a network emulator, then switch back before shipping the device. This allows function tests even in regions where 1NCE is not available. The 1NCE Lifetime Flat subscription is industry-disruptive but simple: customers can deploy, connect, and manage IoT sensors across the world for as little as a dollar per year per device. Complimentary to all Lifetime Flat customers, 1NCE OS is enterprise-grade software that supports IoT projects of any scale, for new and existing projects alike. Using 1NCE OS for device and cloud integration, customers can accelerate time-to-market for IoT projects by months. It also features advanced remote access to device states and telemetry, device location without GPS and optimized payload transmission to increase battery life by up to 70 percent. Customers can get started with 1NCE at the company’s online shop and on the AWS Marketplace. Customer support is available in 14 languages. About 1NCE 1NCE is the only software and connectivity company delivering lifetime IoT for a global flat subscription. Our mission is to deliver true cross-border, future-proof IoT without uncertainty or hassle over the lifetime of a device. In 158 countries, 1NCE delivers connectivity like electricity ready for consumption – opening the world of IoT to innovators who will dramatically improve the environment, cities, healthcare, public safety, the supply chain and more.
