Helps developers bring ideas to life for Internet of Things.

This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on March 12, 2015 at 2:48 pm

MediaTek Labs announced availability of its Cloud Sandbox data platform to help developers bring their ideas to life for the Internet of Things (IoT).

This service, which is free to all registered MediaTek Labs members, offers storage of and access to data from wearable and IoT devices during prototyping.

“MediaTek recognizes the importance of a cloud-based IoT platform and playground to service developers and makers who are prototyping wearable or IoT devices“, said Marc Naddell, VP, MediaTek Labs. “With this complimentary offering from MediaTek Labs, IoT developers no longer need to set up and manage their own web server or source third-party cloud platform services. Instead they can focus on their IoT device prototyping and value proposition, accelerating the time from solution ideation to prototype and proof-of-concept“.

A challenge for developers in the early stages of device creation is not only the management of large amounts of data but a convenient and simple way to visualize the data and demo prototypes to collaborators.

Cloud Sandbox helps solve this with features including:

  • Data storage and visual charting

  • Data monitoring with notifications

  • Device remote control

  • Firmware upgrades over-the-air (FOTA)

  • RESTful API support, TCP socket connection

  • Web or mobile app based access

Cloud Sandbox (MCS) was on display at Mobile World Congress with three compelling demonstrations, including:

  • Wine brewer – A MediaTek LinkIt ONE development board implementation that won first prize in ITRI Mobilehero 2014 competition in Taiwan.

  • Weather station – A LinkIt ONE development board implementation that gathers and pushes real-time temperature, humidity and pressure data to MCS, and is able to have its fan controlled from MCS and the MCS companion mobile app.

  • MediaTek LinkIt Connect 7681 demo – A LinkIt Connect 7681 development board implementation and its companion mobile app to demonstrate real-time LED color control.

MediaTek Labs was launched in September 2014 and continues to provide developers, makers and service providers with SDKs, HDKs and documentation, as well as technical and business support.
