In recent years, with the development of IoT fields such as infrastructure, agriculture and automobiles, the realization of IoT services, applications, and components have emerged in large numbers, and companies have made every effort to advance the business for this market. On the other hand, when When evaluating IoT, its corresponding development requires deep software, hardware and other specialized knowledge and a large amount of development time. Moreover, due to the differences in the environment for installation of components and the development environment, it is difficult to make an assessment easily.
ROHM Group contributes to the solution of these issues by contributing to the development of prototyping and design for various manufacturers and IoT devices. It focuses on open platforms that can be easily evaluated, and is committed to developing and selling 'Lazurite Series' open platform tools.
'SensorShield-EVK-003' is a new ROHM sensor evaluation kit that supports the open platform and has been highly praised. This product will be installed in the ROHM group's eight kinds of sensor products are installed on the PCB board and connected with the open platform With the expansion board integrated as a kit, it is easy to build a sensor environment by connecting and embedding software with Arduino Uno etc., which is widely used around the world. With the simple evaluation of the sensor product, easy introduction, the development time of IoT devices can be greatly reduced. , And can help the market further development.
In addition to the 'SensorShield-EVK-003' kit, the sensor evaluation board and expansion board are also sold separately at the request of a wide range of users. These products have been available at AMEYA360, Right IC, Digi-key, Mouser, etc. from May 2018 onwards. The sales platform begins to sell. In addition, various documents, software needed for sensing work using this kit can also be downloaded from ROHM official website.
In the future, ROHM will continue to develop sensor devices that promote social safety and comfort in the increasingly popular IoT field.
