Internet of Sports (or How to win GOLD medals in the next Olympics)

Christer Norström, SICS

Winter sports science is growing with the ever-increasing focus on achieving the best results possible. To maximize performance and stay at the top in cross country skiing, research in bio mechanics, physiology, and skiing techniques is required, as well as in equipment such as skis, poles and waxes. In this talk we will present a concept for using sensor technology in the field for improving technique, training methodology and tactical skills in cross country skiing. The concept is built on sampling of inertia sensors, advanced data analysis and visualization. The goal of the project is GOLD medals in the next Olympics in Sochi. The project is a collaboration between Nationellt Vintersportcentrum in Östersund and SICS

Eclipse M2M: Open Source building blocks for the Internet of Things

Benjamin Cabé, Sierra Wireless

The Eclipse M2M Industry Working Group (http://m2m.eclipse.org) is an open-source initiative delivering a set of building blocks for creating IoT solutions. This talk will walk you through the different projects and technologies this group is developing (from embedded application framework, to communication protocols, including development tools) and a live demo will show you how you can very quickly combine the components we provide with Open-Source Hardware platforms (Arduino & Raspberry Pi) to build a complete solution. Join us if you want to learn more about the Lua programming language, the MQTT protocol, and all the cool technologies that we use :)

BeagleBoard, RasberryPi, HTML5 and Java

Gerrit Grunwald, Canoo Engineering AG

Usually Java developers do not create code for embedded devices because there was no good Java support on these devices. Oracle figured out that there is a huge market for embedded devices and decided to support Java and JavaFX on hardware like the very popular Raspberry Pi and the BeagleBoard xM. With Java technology available on these platforms it's very interesting to see what you can do with this. This session will give you a short overview on the available technologies and will explain the interaction between different technologies and where they make sense. The uses case will be a temperature monitoring application where a Raspberry Pi running on Java7 embedded is measuring the temperature and sends the measured data to other devices. One of these devices is a BeagleBoard xM running Java7 incl. JavaFX for ARM which is visualizing the measured data from the Raspberry Pi on a touch screen. Also involved in the use case will be a desktop application running JavaFX to visualize the data and at least a mobile device visualizing the measured data using HTML5 Canvas.

Secure NFC services with Java Card and a new approach to physical access control

Carlo Pompili, Telcred

After several false starts, NFC (Near Field Communications) is finally starting to appear in mobile phones. But having an NFC phone does not by itself mean that it can be used for secure services, such as payments or access control. In this presentation, the difference between NFC and secure NFC will be explained and also how the latter relates to Java Card. An alternative use of Java Card as an embedded cryptographic co-processor will also be introduced through the example of Telcred?s innovative model for offline physical access control.
