The Silicon Halton IoT Peer2Peer is focused on helping members collaborate, share, and learn how IoT is changing industry, and how they can benefit in taking their solutions / products to market.  Check out our past events.

This month’s discussion topic: Innovation vs Implementation: Rapid Prototyping with Software Tools 

Time and money are both critically limited when getting a new connected product to market. In the past, software was often developed from scratch, increasing demands on both limited resources. Modern software development projects can make use of many publicly available tools and resources that speed up initial development and can help with product maintenance as open-source tools strengthen over time. To properly take advantage of these tools and resources, design considerations must be made to properly integrate them into your product as well as manage intellectual property and licensing.

In this presentation, we will cover some of the available tools that we have found most useful, as well as some to avoid, along with some real-life use cases that have benefited from them.
