Following the Processor to Cloud Webinar we hosted with Sprint and TMC is the IoT Prototyping Workshop in Hollywood Florida.

In the fast evolving world of the “Internet of things” solutions need to be responsive, innovative, and nimble. We invite developers and engineers, and project managers to learn how to use the mbed.org a cloud based compiler to program ARM® Cortex™-M3 microprocessors and cellular connectivity to quickly create new "connected prototypes".

What Attendees will learn:

  • Rapid prototyping using a cloud based compiler
  • Crowd sourcing libraries to add drivers from common sensors and peripherals
  • Cellular communication

Who should attend:

  • Programmers that know machine languages and want to make their devices connected
  • Product Managers and Engineers looking to shorten time to market for product and services
  • Business Development Managers focusing on IoT
  • Incubator and Start up business interested in the IoT Space
  • Educational institutions
