Acontis Announces EC-Motion EtherCAT Motion Library for QNX Neutrino RTOS

"-- QNX Partner News Release --

WEINGARTEN, February 12, 2013 Today, Acontis announced its new EC-Motion product is now available for the QNX platform and will be demonstrated for the first time at the embedded world conference 2013 from Feb. 26-28 in Nuremberg, Germany. The demo will showcase the BeagleBone, a credit-card-sized computer based on Sitara ARM AM335x Cortex-A8 processors from Texas Instruments, Incorporated TI, running the QNX Neutrino real-time operating system RTOS.

The demo shows a Yaskawa Sigma-5 EtherCAT drive running in cyclic synchronous velocity mode.

EC-Motion provides a simple C/C++ motion control library for EtherCAT drives.

This library supports all the single-axis movement commands that are specified within the PLCopen standard. There is no need for additional costly hardware.

Using this library, it is also possible to implement applications for multi-axis coordinated movements.

The drives can be operated in the cyclic synchronous position mode CSP or cyclic synchronous velocity mode CSV.Usually, the functions of the motion control library run cyclically, for example, once every millisecond. No additional tasks are created. As a result, the integration of the EC-Motion library into custom motion applications as well as into a PLC runtime environment is very simple.

Motion is based on Acontis industry-proven EC-Master EtherCAT Master stack, which is shipped with a high-speed Ethernet driver for the on-chip Ethernet controller of the Sitara ARM processor. Therefore, cycle times on the TIs Sitara ARM processors of up to 10 kHz can be achieved.

We are thrilled to see Acontis demonstrate their motion control library and EtherCAT stack on the QNX Neutrino RTOS, which has a long history in mission-critical industrial systems, said Linda Campbell, director of strategic alliances at QNX Software Systems. Their ability to deliver an EtherCAT solution on a low-cost platform like TIs Sitara AM335x processors can offer real value to industrial developers who want to maximize performance while minimizing system costs.

We are pleased to see Acontis and QNX Software Systems create a system solution that makes industrial automation easier and more affordable, said Srik Gurrapu, business manager for industrial solutions, at TI. This solution runs on a robust and scalable AM335x processor family that integrates multi-protocol industrial communications, and with tools such as Beaglebone and Industrial Communications Engine ICE, OEM customers in industrial automation can take advantage of easy-to-use system solutions while keeping costs down.

QNX Announces New In-Car Speech Recognition Framework to Understand a Speakers Intent

"New intent framework to bring power of ATT Watson^SM speech recognition engine to wider variety of in-car systems and applications

OTTAWA, January 7, 2013 QNX Software Systems Limited, a global leader in software platforms for in-car electronics, has announced a powerful new framework that will allow speech recognition systems in cars to understand a speakers intent. The framework extracts meaning from the drivers spoken words, enabling in-car systems to create calendar appointments, dictate email or text messages, set complex navigation destinations, and even perform general Internet searches.

The framework, which is a component of the QNX CAR application platform, allows in-car applications to access ATT WatsonSM speech recognition technology. ATT Watson is ATTs pioneering speech services platform, which enables the development of next-generation technologies that go beyond speech to power more advanced natural language understanding and automatic speech recognition, among other capabilities. The multimodal and multilingual speech engine runs on a cloud-based server to provide extremely high-quality recognition with low latency.

Determination of the intent behind the drivers speech starts on the server, where the ATT Watson speech engine begins to analyze words and fits them to known patterns. The results are then handed from the cloud to the car, where the in-vehicle intent engine from QNX Software Systems performs the remainder of the speech analysis to determine how to act.

Sharing the workload across client and server offers automotive manufacturers and end-users the best of both worlds, said Andy Gryc, automotive product marketing manager, QNX Software Systems. The server-side analysis, provided by ATT Watson, is optimized for complex scenarios, such as a navigation application in which the driver may verbalize destinations in hundreds of different ways. The QNX client-side analysis grants car makers greater flexibility, enabling them to adapt the ATT Watson results for a variety of in-car applications, regional aspects, or personal tastes.

For many of us, the most natural way to communicate is with our voice. By working with QNX and opening access to our rich set of speech technologies developed at our labs, were making it possible for more people to use the power of their voice to stay safely connected in their vehicles, said Mazin Gilbert, assistant vice president of technical research, ATT Labs. Delivering this type of next-generation virtual assistant applications for the connected car is especially important as we look at how technology can help drivers keep their eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.

The intent system from QNX Software Systems is dynamically pluggable, which allows the recognized vocabulary to change depending on what applications are active, and to support new apps that are downloaded to the car.

Enabling natural, intuitive, user experiences is fundamental to our vision of the connected vehicle, and providing our automotive customers with the tools to create those experiences is fundamental to our product strategy, said Linda Campbell, director of strategic alliances, QNX Software Systems. By providing a framework that enables our customers to take greater advantage of ATTs phenomenal speech engine, the new intent system should help accelerate the adoption of speech recognition across a broad range of vehicles.

The QNX CAR application platform from QNX Software Systems is a comprehensive, pre-integrated software stack designed to help automotive companies reduce the time and effort of building highly sophisticated and connected infotainment systems.

QNX Software Systems has licensed its software technology for millions of in-vehicle systems worldwide, including digital instrument clusters, hands-free systems, multimedia head units, connectivity modules, and 3D navigation systems.

Developed at ATT Labs, ATT Watson has been powering advanced speech services in the marketplace for years. The technology reflects more than one million hours of research and development in speech technologies that has led to more than 600 U.S. patents and patent applications.

Availability

The intent system will be offered as a component of the QNX CAR application platform in 2013. Release 2.0 of the platform will be available to the automotive community this month. Separate licensing from ATT will be required to use ATT Watson components.

Panel participation at ATT Developer Summit

Today, at the ATT Developer Summit, Andrew Poliak, director of automotive business development at QNX Software Systems, will participate in the panel Navigating the Connected Vehicle Vision. The session will be held from 3:00 to 3:45 pm, at the Palms Casino Resort.

New HTML5 SDK from QNX Bridges the Gap Between App Developers and Automakers

"Mobile developers can now create automotive apps based on standard web technologies like CSS3, HTML5, and JavaScript

DETROIT, SAE Convergence 2012 booth 815, October 16, 2012 Mobile app developers see car infotainment as a potentially lucrative new market, and automakers want to leverage the talents of the mobile community but until now, the two sides have had little way of working together. Today, QNX Software Systems Limited announced a new solution designed to tear down these barriers and to enable new partnerships between the mobile and automotive worlds: the HTML5 SDK for the QNX CAR 2 application platform.

The new HTML5 SDK is an extension of the open source BlackBerry WebWorks framework, specially optimized for automotive environments. It allows developers to write, test, and package feature-rich automotive apps based on HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and other open standards. Just as important, it provides the missing glue between high-level apps and the car, through specialized APIs that provide access to automotive devices and hardware. These APIs include JavaScript classes that can access the HVAC, GPS, multimedia, and other services offered by the QNX CAR 2 application platform.

To accelerate development, the HTML5 SDK provides an emulator that lets developers quickly see how their apps would look and function in a car. Developers can use the emulator to perform JavaScript debugging, HTML DOM inspection, automated testing, and screen-resolution emulation, all from the convenience of a web browser. Simply put, mobile app developers can test their programs without access to an actual car or infotainment system. Better yet, they can make changes to their apps and view the results without having to recompile. They simply have to edit their source code and press refresh in the browser. The simulator is based on the open source BlackBerry Ripple emulator, used by thousands of mobile developers.

QNX Software Systems also plans to create a virtual marketplace that will allow developers to make their QNX CAR 2 applications available to automakers. The marketplace will provide common ground for app developers and automakers to work together, and will allow automakers to preview the applications that best fit their brands and satisfy their customers. The marketplace is expected to go live when the HTML5 SDK is released.

HTML5 has become a lingua franca, allowing app developers to target all the major mobile platforms. But until now, automakers have been unable to tap into this rich vein of apps, content, and developer talent. The HTML5 SDK for the QNX CAR 2 application platform changes all that, said Andy Gryc, automotive product marketing manager, QNX Software Systems. Now, mobile developers and automakers can begin engaging with one another in a meaningful way, through a common platform and through the same open standards that have done so much to accelerate the rapid development and rich user experiences of mobile platforms.

QNX Software Systems has licensed its software technology for use in millions of in-vehicle systems worldwide, including digital instrument clusters, hands-free systems, multimedia head units, connectivity modules, and 3D navigation systems. The QNX CAR 2 application platform is a pre-integrated software stack designed to reduce the time and effort of creating highly sophisticated and personalizeable in-car infotainment systems.

Availability

The QNX CAR 2 application platform is currently being evaluated by select automakers and tier one automotive suppliers for use in next-generation infotainment systems. QNX Software Systems plans to release the platform in December 2012, and plans to make the HTML5 SDK and virtual marketplace available to qualified developers in Q1 2013.

Freescale and partners launch reference platform to streamline development of programmable logic controllers

"Freescale, QNX Software Systems, ISaGRAF, and koenig-pa KPA collaborate to accelerate the development of industrial control systems

-- QNX Partner News Release --

BEIJING Freescale Technology Forum Aug. 14, 2012 Freescale Semiconductor NYSE: FSL has collaborated with industrial technology partners to develop an advanced programmable logic controller PLC reference platform based on Freescales dual-core QorIQ P1025 processor. The reference platform integrates well-established EtherCAT protocol software from KPA, PLC Firmware from ISaGRAF, and the QNX Neutrino real-time operating system RTOS to boost the functionality, reliability and performance of control applications communicating via the EtherCAT protocol.

PLCs automate critical systems that clean our drinking water, process food, create and distribute energy, synchronize transportation and manufacture a multitude of important products. We see PLC demand growing fastest in developing regions, said Alexandra Dopplinger, industrial segment director for Robotics and Automation at Freescale. This comprehensive new reference platform is based on the latest technology from industrial technology leaders and will speed and simplify creation of advanced PLC equipment.

A demonstration of the PLC solution is on display at the QNX booth during this weeks FTF China event in Beijing.

The PLC reference platform delivers millisecond response times for EtherCAT tasks, while using just one percent of one core in the dual-core QorIQ P1025 processor. This leaves ample performance headroom to run both the communications protocol and the control application in a single device. Customers may also choose to distribute processing functions across two cores, or isolate real-time control functions on one core while running maintenance and communications functions on the other core. And for more complex control algorithms, Freescales QorIQ P1 processor family offers pin-compatible single-core variants for cost reduction, and dual-core variants that scale up to 5,700 million instructions per second MIPS.

The ISaGRAF PLC Firmware allows developers to easily create feature-rich control systems based on industry-standard control languages such as IEC 61499 and IEC 61131-3. This allows easier migration of existing applications to new platforms based on QorIQ processors and the QNX Neutrino RTOS. ISaGRAF provides a complete control application development environment called the ISaGRAF 6 Workbench, which features plug-ins for features such as IEC 61131-3 compliant languages, an integrated HMI, and the KPA Studio for integrated EtherCAT slave management. ISaGRAFs modularity allows customers to create a customized Workbench, with only the functionality required for their control product.

The QNX Neutrino RTOS has a proven track record in programmable logic controllers, train-control systems, wind turbines, nuclear plants, building management systems, process automation systems and other mission-critical environments. It offers both adaptive CPU partitioning and multicore support and brings key qualities to automation and control systems, including process isolation, scheduling predictability, and self-healing mechanisms.

OEMs in industrial control applications are challenged by increasingly compressed time-to-market windows and the need to cost-effectively maintain and evolve these systems over long product lifecycles, said Bob Monkman, director of Business Development for QNX Software Systems. QNX Software Systems provides an ideal operating system platform for reliability and easier programming of industrial control systems. A pre-integrated reference design platform combining the QNX Neutrino RTOS with Freescale, KPA, and ISaGRAF solutions represents an extremely compelling offer to meet these challenges.

The KPA EtherCAT master and slave modules daisy-chain to eliminate switches and routers for reduced complexity and cost for factory automation, process control, industrial drives, motion control and safety devices. The KPA EtherCAT Master offers easy-to-use hard real-time performance, configuration and network activity monitoring capabilities. It is implemented in C for high performance, with scalable EtherCAT features such as cable redundancy, hot connect and multiple master. The KPA EtherCAT Studio tool is available to help developers easily configure and debug the EtherCAT network, with features such as data logging with triggering, timing analysis without external tools, project comparison and topology viewer.

The PLC reference design is based on Freescales QorIQ processors, which include single-, dual- and many-core options, with integrated support for communication protocols such as EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET and PROFIBUS. Freescale control and network processor solutions are engineered to meet the challenging safety, security and reliability requirements of manufacturing, processing and critical infrastructure facilities. Ruggedized Freescale processors are frequently selected for industrial control, sensing, networking and human-machine interface HMI applications in smart grid and smart metering, health care, factory automation and drives, motor control, home appliance, building control, point-of-sale and kiosk, aerospace and defense and industrial transportation markets.

The PLC reference platform is supported by powerful development tools from all four companies, including the KPA EtherCAT Studio, ISaGRAF 6 Workbench, QNX Momentics Tool Suite and Freescale CodeWarrior Development Suite.

Pricing and availability

The PLC Reference Platform is based on the Freescale Industrial Tower System, available for purchase directly from Freescale and distribution partners for 199 USD suggested resale price.The complete reference platform, including hardware, software and evaluation tools is available now, as described at www.freescale.com/goPLC.

To control when the infotainment system posts these updates, car occupants use simple voice commands.

To view live updates issued by the reference vehicle while it is at Telematics Detroit, from June 6 to 7, visit facebook.com/QNXSoftwareSystems.

Its time that car infotainment becomes social by design, but for that to happen, app developers and automotive manufacturers need tools to integrate social media easily, and in a way thats appropriate to the driving experience, said Andy Gryc, automotive product marketing manager, QNX Software Systems. We are planning to offer an automotive social media framework that will simplify this task for our customers and partners, and this demo is but an example of the many use cases that such a framework will enable.

QNX Software Systems created the reference vehicle to showcase the capabilities of the companys QNX CAR 2 application platform, a pre-integrated software stack designed to reduce the time and effort of creating highly sophisticated and personalizeable in-car infotainment systems. The platform, which won a Best of CES 2012 award, is now being evaluated by select automakers and tier one automotive suppliers.

QNX Brings Power of Personalization to In-Car Infotainment

"New reference vehicle based on Jeep Wrangler demonstrates how QNX CAR 2 application platform will help drivers and automakers personalize the driving experience

DETROIT, Telematics Detroit Conference, June 6, 2012 QNX Software Systems Limited, a global leader in software platforms for the in-car infotainment and telematics market, has taken the wraps off a new reference vehicle, a specially modified Jeep Wrangler Sahara, to showcase how its QNX CAR 2 application platform is poised to bring a new level of personalization to the automobile.

We created the reference vehicle for three reasons: to show how automakers can create a custom look-and-feel for multiple vehicle lines from a single, cost-effective code base; to show how drivers can easily re-skin the dashboard to suit their personal tastes and interests; and to show how application developers can create apps that adopt the vehicles look and feel, said Andy Gryc, automotive product marketing manager, QNX Software Systems.

To demonstrate the personalization capabilities of the QNX CAR 2 application platform, a pre-integrated software stack for building in-car infotainment systems, the reference vehicle includes a digital instrument cluster, an infotainment system, and a media player, all of which can be re-skinned through a simple tap on the touchscreen to display a different look and feel. The underlying code remains the same; only the user interface, created in HTML5, changes from one skin to another.

Currently, automakers must design and build separate instrument clusters and infotainment systems to match the brand identity of each product line an expensive and often complex process. By allowing automakers to create a single code base that can be re-skinned across vehicles, the QNX CAR 2 application platform will not only help eliminate this complexity, but also help enable automakers to respond more quickly to shifting customer tastes and expectations. And by enabling user personalization, the platform will help consumers feel more at home in their cars and, ultimately, enhance brand loyalty.

QNX Software Systems new reference vehicle can also post updates to Facebook that list the song and artist the infotainment system is currently playing; users use simple voice commands to control when updates are posted. To view live updates issued by the Jeep during Telematics Detroit, visit facebook.com/QNXSoftwareSystems.

Other highlights of the new reference vehicle include:

auto-centric HTML5 framework for leveraging the mobile ecosystem
integration with a variety of popular smartphones
one-touch Bluetooth pairing with smartphones using NFC Near-Field Communications
Ultra HD hands-free communication
DLNA support for phone and home -based media
tablet-based rear-seat entertainment
a reconfigurable digital instrument cluster

The vehicle also integrates a variety of partner technologies, including hybrid navigation from TCS and Telenav, text-to-speech and natural speech recognition from Vlingo and ATT, streaming Internet radio from Pandora and TuneIn, integrated weather reporting from the Weather Network, parking search from Best Parking, FOTA Firmware Over-The-Air software updates from Red Bend Software, and integrated Bluetooth profiles from Sybase iAnywhere and Cybercom.

QNX Software Systems has licensed its software technology for use in millions of in-vehicle systems worldwide, including digital instrument clusters, hands-free systems, multimedia head units, connectivity modules, and navigation systems.

March 14, 2012 Bellevue, WA ITTIA announces the availability of ITTIA DB SQL data distribution features for the QNX Neutrino Realtime Operating System RTOS. These new features, which build upon the existing IITIA DB SQL product for QNX, empower embedded software developers to share and communicate data stored in ITTIA DB SQL on the QNX Neutrino RTOS with a back-end Microsoft SQL Server database. This allows applications to not only distribute data between devices based on the QNX Neutrino RTOS and Microsoft SQL Server, but also benefit from the replication environment necessary for high availability.

ITTIA DB SQL is a relational embedded database for special-purpose systems that require self-contained data management software. Similarly, QNX operating system technology is designed for embedded systems and powers many mission-critical applications. QNX application developers are now able to access data stored in a back-end Microsoft SQL Server, even with limited connectivity. ITTIA DB SQL provides data distribution capabilities between an application embedded with ITTIA DB running on the QNX Neutrino RTOS and other back-end systems built with SQL Server. This offering includes high availability, replication, and data synchronization between two different platforms: QNX and Windows.

In a typical ecosystem where data needs to be distributed, data is stored across multiple platforms, and each environment runs independently. For this reason, tools that bridge the gap between data stored in various devices or back-end relational database management systems RDBMS are critical to the success of future applications.

The combination of ITTIA DB SQL and the QNX Neutrino RTOS offers improved data distribution, maturity, and cost savings to embedded developers. The data distribution facility offered by ITTIA DB allows QNX developers to synchronize selected tables and rows in a back-end RDBMS, such as SQL Server, with various devices. This flexibility is intended to allow applications to reduce overhead, protect access to data, and prevent conflicts. Conflicts are automatically detected whenever a shared row is modified both in the back-end and on the device, and can be resolved either through simple rules or custom stored procedures.

QNX developers also benefit from ITTIA DB SQL distributed data features, which enable them to keep data available at all times. Increased availability ensures that failures are isolated and prevent a failure of the entire system. Distributed access provides individuals with greater freedom in where and when they can access the system, especially when devices are used. Database logging allows devices based on the QNX Neutrino RTOS to record transaction history and exchange data bi-directionally both between devices and with the back-end.
