Virtual IoT | Eclipse Edje: A Java API for Microcontrollers
Slides available at: http://www.slideshare.net/MicroEJ/eclipse-edje-a-java-api-for-microcontrollers-66604372
The Eclipse Edje project defines a standard high-level Java API called Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for accessing hardware features delivered by microcontrollers (MCU) such as GPIO, DAC, ADC, PWM, etc. that can directly connect to native libraries, drivers, and board support packages provided by silicon vendors with their evaluation kits. MCUs are small low-cost low-power 32-bit processors designed to run software in resource-constrained environments: low memory (typically KB), flash (typically MB) and frequency (typically MHz).
In this webinar, we will give an update on this project, presenting the project philosophy, the intended scope and dependencies, and of course, what is available for anyone to download and evaluate the project content. We will also cover what are the next planned features and where we need some involvement of the community.
