Incredibly small computer - INTEL EDISON




Intel presented a miniature computer Edison, who was able fit on a platform the size of a memory card format SD. It’s hard to accept as true, but electronics monster success this aim completely and need thank for this proprietary technology of 22 nm. This permitted fit on the platform modules Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and controlled by the computer operating system. Computer Intel Edison proposed not for casual users, but primarily for engineers, though they may find the matching programs in the app store, which was created specifically for the platform. 




We must understand that we face only a prototype device, which in its last version can take any pattern – SD- card has been selected to show the dimensions of the computer. Additionally, Intel does not omit the use of other operating systems. 
As an demonstration of such an idea Intel illustrated a computer, embedded in clothing young child, who is following the current status. The second is the same computer – in cup of the mother. Depending on the baby’s health a cup shows " cheerful " green or " miserable " red smiley . Furthermore, Edison may be integrated into a milk container, which by pointer from the child computer may start heating the beverage to a desired temperature.




In alignment to create a powerful community of developers, and thus ensure the attractiveness of computer Edison, Intel has pledged to pay the best engineers and most intriguing tasks conceived on the platform. In particular, it was announced the challenge (Make it Wearable), dedicated to the creation of variable systems based on Edison, prize fund under this call for $ 1.3 million. And in a broad sell Intel Edison arrive in mid-year.
