STMicroelectronics demonstrated its “smart-life” solutions at i-SEDEX 2014, at KINTEX, Korea, Oct. 14-16.
Visitors to ST’s booth at i-SEDEX experienced a range of advanced technologies and solutions targeting applications in six ‘smart-life’ segments: Smart Brain, Smart Sensing, Smart Power, Smart Lighting, Smart Motor Control, and Smart Meter.
The Smart Brain zone highlighted ST’s newest and most powerful STM32 microcontroller series, STM32 F7. A dedicated section at the booth showcased easy code generation using the STM32 CubeMX software platform, introduced earlier this year, that makes designing with STM32 microcontrollers easier, faster, and more accessible. Visitors also played Anki Drive racing game, in which miniature cars powered by the STM32F0 microcontrollers efficiently process the data transmitted on the track and respond in real time.
In Smart Sensing, ST showed how sensors play a key role in enabling various smart-life scenarios. As a longtime leader in sensors and Internet-of-Things (IoT) technologies, ST demonstrated tablet-based monitoring of environmental contexts using energy-harvesting sensor nodes that measure temperature and humidity, and transfer the data through sub-1GHz wireless communication. This solution brings new opportunities for smart-home, smart-building, and smart-agriculture applications.
Driving the booming wearable-technology trend, ST exhibited at i-SEDEX a wristwatch-style optical heart-rate monitoring demo. The demonstration showed a wrist-facing LED on the backside of the wearable device that flashes and uses a photodiode and microcontroller to measure light reflected from the wearer’s flowing blood to determine heart rate.
In Smart Lighting, ST demonstrated remote control of indoor and outdoor LED lighting through a network. In Smart Motor Control, ST displayed a multi-motor driver solution for applications that require high-precision motor control. ST’s 3D printer demo draws the design patterns based on the information transmitted from an NFC-enabled mobile device.
In Smart Meter, ST demonstrated its latest high-precision digital-metering IC. The device prevents billing losses by keeping the meter accuracy down to just a few milliamps.
