Original Press Release:
EZURiO Introduces a Universal Wireless Development Kit
A unique, inexpensive Wireless Development Kit provides the flexibility of Bluetooth, 802.11 and GPRS development for embedded designers.
Wooburn Green Feb 12, 2007 - To coincide with 3GSM in Barcelona and the Embedded World Show in Nuremburg, EZURiO Ltd today announced the availability of their new Wireless Development Kit for embedded developers which is unique in supporting Bluetooth, 802.11 and GSM/GPRS. It provides a simple design environment that can dramatically reduce the development time of wirelessly enabled products.
The Wireless Development Kit is available with EZURiO's pre-qualified Bluetooth and 802.11 Wireless LAN modules. Both modules contain embedded protocol stacks, removing the need for complex programming on a host processor.
Key Features of the Wireless Development Kit include:
Bluetooth
Complete, qualified Bluetooth stack
Support for version 2.0
Upgradeable for Bluetooth Version 2.1 when available
Simple AT style interface
Audio codec evaluation boards available
802.11b/g
Enhanced drivers for low power operation
Robust TCP/IP stack
Integrated Web Server
Embedded Interpreter (UWScript) for rapid development
Both modules include multiple general purpose I/O lines and ADC converters, allowing fully autonomous M2M applications to be developed without additional hardware.
For cellular applications, the Wireless Development Kit also supports Siemens' MC55 range of GSM/GPRS modules, which are pin compatible with EZURiO's wireless LAN module. This permits designers to develop products which can support either short range or wide area wireless connectivity, with incredibly fast time to market.
A terminal emulator program is supplied with the Wireless Development Kit to facilitate programming of Bluetooth, 802.11 and GPRS modules. "Developers have traditionally had to sit down and assimilate vast amounts of specific information when they moved to a new wireless standard" said Chris Shannon, CEO of EZURiO. "With our new Wireless Development Kit, embedded protocol stacks, intelligent APIs and pin compatible footprints, we've insulated them from all of that complexity. These tools will let them concentrate on their product design and treat wireless connectivity as a simple building block."
EZURiO's wireless modules are already extensively used in a wide variety of products, ranging from Bluetooth advertising systems in Cinemas to medical defibrillators and ePOS terminals.
