This talk describes some of the motivations behind building a common module platform at Golioth, the challenges of unconstrained designs, and how to build modular systems that take advantage of Zephyr RTOS capabilities.
The Golioth OTA service can handle more than just Over-the-Air firmware upgrade. This example application demonstrates multiple-artifact releases, where a picture to be shown on the screen of an IoT device is updated using OTA.
Golioth is open sourcing the PCBs in their hardware platform ("Aludel"). This includes a main processing and communication board ("Elixir") and an ePaper, touch enabled PCB front panel board ("Ostentus")
Golioth makes it easy to cache your IoT sensor data and upload it in a batch process. This guide details how this works from both the device and the cloud side, including many details on dealing with timestamps and destination routing.
Embedded systems, like any software system, benefits from modularizing software components, especially as they approach production. In this talk at the Embedded Open Source Summit 2024, Golioth Firmware Lead Sam Friedman talks about how to create "microservices" for microcontrollers.
Golioth already works on the nRF9151 SIP and associated Dev Kit from Nordic Semiconductor. Utilize the Golioth Firmware SDK with nRF Connect SDK to connect your cellular device to an advanced IoT cloud immediately.
Sandra Capri, CTO of Ambient Sensors, writes about building a Bluetooth Mesh demo where a cellular-based Thingy91 unit acts as a bridge to the Golioth Cloud.
Guest author Jerónimo Agulló goes over the basics of GNSS and how the NMEA0183 set of messages standardizes communication between geolocation modules and microcontrollers. Then he shows how a new system in Zephyr makes it easier than ever to set up communication.
