Webinar: Build your own Embedded Carrier Board, easily!
In this webinar, we show you how easy it is to design your own embedded carrier board for Toradex's computer on modules. We begin by showing the differences between the Toradex computer on module families with a focus on the new Verdin computer on module family.
We will guide you through the wide range of reference schematics and design guides provided by Toradex.
The Toradex Pinout Designer is a powerful tool for configuring the pin muxing of Colibri, Apalis, and Verdin modules. The tool allows comparing the interface of different modules. In this webinar, we are introducing the new cloud-based version and walk you through the different features.
We are going to provide insights on selecting the right components for a design with long-term availability. Finally, we reveal how Toradex does schematic reviews on the base of a netlist base. This has proven to be a key factor in getting the first version right.
Key takeaways:
- Mastering the selection of the best suitable Toradex computer on module for your next project
- Get to know the Toradex reference designs
- Understand the functions of the Pinout Designer
- Get a front-row seat to Toradex hardware developers revealing how they do component selection and schematic reviews

Webinar: Python in One Hour
Python has become enormously popular as a programming language because it's so quick-and-easy to use. People often remark that a Python program looks like pseudo-code, an English language description of what the code is meant to do. Python is widely used for scripting tool flows, for software test, and for automating small tasks, as well as for web programming and scientific computing. It has even been used for electronic system modeling and digital hardware verification.
This webinar will get you started with Python. You can expect to learn about:
- The basics of the Python language
- What makes Python different from other programming languages
- The richness of the Python libraries and add-on packages

Webinar: Jumpstart cloud-connected computer vision and ML designs
Deep Learning and artificial intelligence (AI) advancements enable manufacturers to leverage many new vision-based capabilities to control quality, manage supply and demand, classify and sort, and ground-truth validation for factory and process automation. AWS, Toradex, and NXP are collaborating to simplify the development of computer vision and machine learning solutions for IoT devices at the edge, even when the cloud connectivity is not available. This webinar demonstrates the Toradex Apalis AI Vision Starter Kit with NXP i.MX 8QuadMax Application Processor. This kit allows you to quickly recognize different kinds of objects leveraging AWS SageMaker Neo and AWS IoT Greengrass. The same platform can then be quickly retrained to recognize any object, even if it is in motion.
The AI Vision Starter Kit includes a camera and a Toradex System on Module that identifies and classifies objects, such as on an assembly line. This kit uses industrial-grade hardware and software that can be the starting point for your next project. The optimized machine learning model runs on the local device, with cloud connectivity for remote maintenance, business tool access, and over-the-air (OTA) updating. We use the Linux-based Torizon platform and AWS IoT Greengrass to connect to the cloud via MQTT.
Key Takeaways:
- Jumpstart your vision-enabled, connected device development
- Learn about the newest hardware and software architecture for Industry 4.0 devices
- Experience how the Toradex Apalis System on Modules simplify development with NXP i.MX 8QuadMax processors
- Leverage AWS SageMaker Neo to optimize a Deep Neural Network that runs at the edge

Bringing the Power of CUDA to Small Devices - Presented by Toradex
In recent years, CUDA® and powerful GPUs have given Desktop PCs, Servers and Super Computers new capabilities. Starting with the NVIDIA® Tegra K1 and X1 it is now possible to bring this capability to embedded devices like Drones, Underwater Robotics, Cars, Mobile Medical Devices, Smart Cameras and even Cube Satellites and many more. The complete design of an embedded system – including the NVIDIA SoC, DDR RAM, power supply & BSP adaptations – is quite complex. Although it is not a big hurdle for those who build hundreds-of-thousands of devices with substantial resources & expertise, it can be prohibitive to design such a complex system for a smaller volume product on a limited development budget. A solution is Computer on Modules (CoM) – also called System on Modules (SoM). A CoM encapsulates the complexity of the computing system onto a module, significantly lowering the complexity of a specialized design for a real product.
In this talk, we will discuss current SoM solutions like the NVIDIA Jetson TX1 module or the Toradex Apalis TK1. You will learn about the architecture of such a system. We will demonstrate a typical development process and you will get a feel for the skill set and resources required to transform a maker board prototype into a real product. In the end, we will look at some applications where such systems are deployed, including drones, robots, cinema cameras and even a 24-module TK1 micro cluster.

Windows 10 IoT Core: From the Embedded Device to the Cloud and Back
Today’s powerful and dedicated devices are successfully replacing PCs. They offer more dependable, inexpensive and less power-consuming solutions. To deal with current requirements about rich user interfaces, connectivity, and security, embedded developers require tools that will be more productive, while offering reliable and scalable solutions. Windows 10 IoT can run on resource-constrained devices, providing a good share of the features that Windows 10 provides on PCs, smartphone and tablets. This will let existing PC and mobile developers migrate their existing solutions easily and apply their knowledge to the embedded domain. Using Visual Studio, developers can use the same development environment from the device to the cloud, and use popular languages (like C# and javascript), tools and technologies to develop end-to-end Internet of Things solutions.

Heterogeneous/Asymmetric Multi-core Architectures - Colibri VF61
Freescale VF6xx SoC possesses a heterogeneous/asymmetrical multi-core architecture. The 2 cores – ARM Cortex-A5 and ARM Cortex-M4 – will at the same time run completely different operating systems. This SoC architecture is absolute for applications with numerous real time and mixed-criticality needs during which the ARM Cortex-A5 runs a standard OS like Linux supporting UI and high output needs whereas the ARM Cortex-M4 runs a RTOS for real-time tasks.
