Samsung представила платформу Artik для «Интернета вещей»
Рынок устройств, которые способны обмениваться данными через Интернет, или так называемый «Интернет вещей» сейчас начинает активно развиваться и Samsung представила аппаратную платформу собственной разработки Artik, которая как раз предназначена для таких целей, а конкурирующие решения уже есть у Intel и Qualcomm. На таких платформах можно будет создавать «умные» устройства, начиная с холодильников и телевизоров и заканчивая квадрокоптерами.
В семейство Ardik входят три платы Artik 1, Artik 5 и Artik 10 разной мощности и размеров и набор инструментов и сервисов для разработчиков. Artik 1 имеет габариты 12х12 мм, оснащена двухъядерным процессор (250 МГц + 80 МГц), 1 МБ on-chip + 4 МБ SPI Flash, беспроводным модулем Bluetooth 4.0 LE, акселерометром, гироскопом и магнитометром. Возможно подключение экрана с разрешением до WVGA (800х480).
Artik 5 имеет размеры 29х25 мм, оборудована двухъядерным ARM-процессором с частотой 1.0 ГГц, графическим ускорителем ARM Mali 400 MP2, 512 МБ оперативной памяти LPDDR3, 4 ГБ встроенной флеш-памяти, модулями Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth LE, Zigbee и Thread. Artik 10 — самая мощная плата, она имеет размеры 29х39 мм и имеет на борту восьмиядерный ARM-процессор (4хA15 с частотой 1.3 ГГц + 4хA7, 1.0 ГГц), графику ARM Mali T628 MP6, 2 ГБ оперативной памяти, 16 ГБ флеш-памяти, модули Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth LE, Zigbee и Thread.
Цены на платы будут в диапазоне от $10 до $100. Одна из самых популярных открытых платформ Arduino уже заявила о поддержке Artik. Все желающие разработчики могут подписаться на альфа-программу, которая стартует 31 мая.

IOT WORLD, SAN FRANCISCO, May 12, 2015 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced the Samsung ARTIKTM platform to allow faster, simpler development of new enterprise, industrial and consumer applications for the Internet of Things (IoT). ARTIK is an open platform that includes a best-in-class family of integrated production-ready modules, advanced software, development boards, drivers, tools, security features and cloud connectivity designed to help accelerate development of a new generation of better, smarter IoT devices, solutions and services.
“We are providing the industry’s most advanced, open and secure platform for developing IoT products”, said Young Sohn, president and chief strategy officer, Samsung Electronics. “By leveraging Samsung’s high-volume manufacturing, advanced silicon process and packaging technologies, and extensive ecosystem, ARTIK allows developers to rapidly turn great ideas into market leading IoT products and applications.”
The ARTIK Family
All members of the Samsung ARTIK family incorporate unique embedded hardware security technology, on-board memory and advanced processing power in an open platform. Security is also a key element of the advanced software integrated into the platform, along with the ability to connect to the Internet for cloud-based data analytics and enhanced services. As an open platform, Samsung ARTIK can be easily customized for more rapid deployment of IoT devices and the services that can be delivered using them.
The Samsung ARTIK platform comes in a variety of configurations to meet the specific requirements of a wide range of devices from wearables and home automation, to smart lighting and industrial applications. Initial members of the ARTIK family include:
- ARTIK 1, the smallest IoT module currently available in the industry at 12mm-by-12mm combines Bluetooth/BLE connectivity and a nine-axis sensor with best-in-class compute capabilities and power consumption. It is specifically designed for low-power, small form- factor IoT applications.
- ARTIK 5 delivers an outstanding balance of size, power and price-performance and is ideal for home hubs, drones and high-end wearables. It incorporates a 1GHz dual-core processor and on-board DRAM and flash memory.
-
ARTIK 10 delivers advanced capabilities and high-performance to IoT with an eight-core processor, full 1080p video decoding/encoding, 5.1 audio and 2GB DRAM along with 16GB flash memory. The Samsung ARTIK 10 includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth/BLE and ZigBee connectivity and is designed for use with home servers, media applications, and in industrial settings.
“Industry requirements for IoT devices vary in terms of battery life, computational horse power and form factor,” said Sohn. “With this family of ARTIK offerings, Samsung is directly addressing the needs of the widest range of customers, uses and applications.”
Additional Technical Highlights of the Samsung ARTIK Family
- Security and Privacy: The ARTIK platform offers a best-in-class, end-to-end security solution. At the hardware level, ARTIK contains am embedded secure element that goes beyond software-based encryption solutions alone. At the application level, ARTIK is equipped with a machine learning based anomaly detection system. This allows the user to identify abnormalities and unusual behavior in order to address possible hacking or intrusion activity.
- IoT Software Stack: Samsung’s ARTIK platform comes with an extensive IoT software stack and tools needed to accelerate product development. Developers can go directly to application framework development, instead of spending time building low-level software libraries.
- Local Storage and Computational Capability: ARTIK supports unique local storage and computational capabilities that in most current IoT environments are generally only addressable by large-scale cloud servers. Depending on user requirements, data can be managed locally or in the cloud in encrypted or unencrypted formats.
- Low-Power Architecture: The ARTIK platform offers best-in-class power consumption to enable longer battery life for battery operated IoT devices like wearables. The platform includes a tiered architecture that allows applications and tasks to run at the right power- optimized performance and memory utilization.
- Small Form Factor: All ARTIK modules offer the smallest form factor in their class. Certain ARTIK modules use Samsung’s next generation ePoP (embedded Package-on-Package) technology. Samsung Electromechanics, a global leader in component manufacturing, played a key role in developing advanced packaging technology for ARTIK.
- Connectivity: Depending on the configuration, the ARTIK family offers all major connectivity protocols including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth (including BLE) and ZigBee.
