Posted by Joe Alderson Earlier this year, Arm announced the open beta of Keil Studio Cloud, our new browser-based IDE. It’s free to use, comes with a powerful, modern editor and as the name suggests, supports the wider Arm CMSIS microcontroller ecosystem, as well as Mbed OS. Keil Studio Cloud builds on technology that we have developed for Mbed Studio and the Mbed Online Compiler, with the aim to provide an easy-to-use rapid prototyping environment that can be used for IoT, ML and general embedded development. You can access Keil Studio Cloud at studio.keil.arm.com using your Mbed account. Doc ..read more

Posted by Andy Powers Please join us, slightly later than planned, for the June edition of the Mbed Tech Forum at 5 pm BST (6 pm CET, 9 am Pacific) on June 23rd where Don and Andy will be joined by Joe Alderson, Rob Moran and Arek Zaluski from Arm’s Developer Services Group to talk about the newly launched Keil Studio IDE. The developer experience has always been at the centre of our work on Mbed, and the Mbed Online Compiler and mbed.com website have been fundamental to our approach. With that in mind, the team have been developing Keil Studio, a new cloud-based development environment that w ..read more

Posted by Donatien Garnier Join this Wednesday’s live Tech Forum to ask questions about upcoming features, hear about the latest Mbed OS developments, including the latest software release, and see how Mbed has been contributing to the Connected Home over IP (CHIP) project. The CHIP project, a Working Group within the Zigbee Alliance and supported by partners including Amazon, Ikea, Google, NXP and STMicroelectronics, aims to simplify development and reduce defragmentation of smart home products for manufacturers, and increase compatibility for consumers. The group has recently approved a secu ..read more

Posted by Andy Powers Earlier this year the Microsoft IoT Security research group discovered a series of memory allocation vulnerabilities in various IoT software including Mbed OS. Arm believes that security is fundamental to IoT and we work across the industry to promote security standards like the Platform Security Architecture. When we are notified of any security vulnerabilities, we take them very seriously and quickly concentrate efforts on providing fixes as swiftly as we can. In this instance, we issued a patch to our Mbed partners that allowed them to provide this to any customers who ..read more

Posted by Marcelo Salazar We released version 6.10 of Mbed OS this week and as part of the release we are pleased to introduce a new standard for the definition and usage of pin-names for Mbed Enabled boards. Following feedback from the developer community and our ecosystem partners, we wanted to make it easier for developers to reuse or create applications that port across Mbed boards to external components. By working with the Analog Devices and ST Microelectronics engineering teams, we’ve designed, implemented and deployed new standard pin names and connectors, improving your experience wit ..read more

Posted by Donatien Garnier Two years ago, Arduino adopted Mbed OS as their primary IoT OS. This enablement provided Arduino users with a larger standard library of high quality components including an RTOS, networking stacks and automatic power management. And for Mbed users, it brought the Arduino core as a library to Mbed OS giving developers the potential to access a huge set of Arduino peripheral drivers through a standard interface. By using Arduino platforms such as the Portenta and the Nano BLE 33, developers can benefit from the flexibility and reliability of Mbed OS coupled with the l ..read more

Posted by Donatien Garnier By Peter Ferguson, Director Healthcare Technologies at Arm For healthcare companies to keep up with the pace of patient needs and deliver innovative products while outperforming the highest regulatory challenges, they need the product development process to be as quick and easy as possible. At the same time, medical devices are becoming more complex, with many now having integrated wireless connectivity, enabling onward delivery of the medical data as well as facilitating software and configuration updates that support products to be securely deployed for many years ..read more

Posted by Donatien Garnier During this week’s Tech Forum, we will be joined by Charlie Wang, Cloud Solutions Architect from the Google Cloud team to show how Mbed OS and Google Cloud work together to accelerate IoT product development. We will discuss the challenges IoT developers are facing today and how the Google Cloud and Mbed OS integration can help developers can overcome these challenges. If you missed it, in September 2020, we released OS 6.3, which included the capabilities to connect to any public cloud, including Google Cloud. The materials delivered in the release included an examp ..read more

Posted by Donatien Garnier Happy New Year everyone! We’re excited to be back with our second session of the Mbed OS Tech Forum – a monthly live stream for you to connect with Mbed OS maintainers and developers, ask questions, share feedback and projects, plus hear about the Mbed OS roadmap. During this week’s live stream, we will be joined by George Beckstein, Embedded Software Engineer at Embedded Planet and Garrett LoVerde, IoT architect and long-term Mbed OS contributor. We will discuss what it has taken for these developers to go from inspiration to prototype and production quickly using M ..read more
