STMicroelectronics (STM) exhibited it’s latest solutions at Mobile World Congress (MWC) Shanghai 2018 (27-29 June). Under the theme of “If it’s smart, we’re there,” ST showcased its products and solutions for IoT Connectivity & Cloud, Security & Industry, Sensor & Processing, and Smart Driving applications.
“If it’s smart, we’re there,” the company exhibited latest solutions at MWC Shanghai 2018.
While M2M networks connect machines in closed systems, IoT enhances the existing networks through an intelligent cloud. STM offers multiple wireless-connectivity options enabling customers to quickly and conveniently connect to the cloud. One of the demos was of a yogurt machine powered by the STM32F7 microcontroller. Together with a Wi-Fi and 4G module, the demo showcases the cloud and pay system. The visitor scanned the two-dimension code to complete the pay action, then the machine automatically dispensed the yogurt.
Visitors got to discover the Company’s broad offering through real-world application examples, as well as various end products and solutions from STM customers and ecosystem partners. These included GizWits Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, and Baidu Cloud wireless-connectivity demos showing how the STM32*-based applications connect to IoT cloud services offered by respective partners.
Some other demos include the AWS Voice and EDGE voice-control solution with voice interaction for Smart-Home and Smart-City applications, edge-computing functionality, and multiple IoT nodes; smart devices based on ST’s BlueNRG BLE SoCs; multiple wireless-charging solutions addressing different needs; and a S.P.A.R.C.link 60GHz short-range contactless low-power, high-bandwidth transceiver.
STM is taking the lead to empower device makers with state-of-the-art security for a minimum integration effort. They also displayed its latest NFC solutions for mobile payment, mobile transit ticketing, and mobile security applications; an eSIM solution for mobile phones, wearables, notebooks/tablets, and IoT; and a smart lock based on the ST95HF read-write reader.
In industrial applications, STM demonstrated its BlueNRG-MESH for Smart Building & Smart Industry.
STM demonstrated a number of applications based on ST’s motion MEMS and environmental sensors including a smart watch and a wrist band with 50-meter waterproof functions equipped with the LPS35HWTR pressure sensor; a drone using the LPS22HB pressure. Additionally, it showed its FlightSense Time-of-Flight sensors for proximity, ranging, user detection and obstacle avoidance.
In Smart Driving, STM showcased its broad portfolio of automotive products and demonstrate solutions for V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) communications for road safety and mobility user-experience enhancement, ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance System), Radar, and innovative Infotainment and Telematics Solutions.
