Trip report: Embedded World
Mar. 2nd, 2013 03:27 pmIt was hectic week with Embedded World, but very interesting. Now packing for a trip to Phoenix, San Jose and Portland.
In December I received a request to help with a demo at Mobile World Congress. Embedded World is more important for me than MWC, so I had to invent some excuse to go to Nuremberg rather than to Barcelona. The best excuse would be owning a demo at our booth at EW, so I got a relevant demo. And after I organised and set up the demo I received a request to speak about Yocto Linux at EW... If I knew this earlier I would not have bothered with a demo - being a speaker is much better than standing 3 days at the booth, plus setup, plus shipping. But I did not want to disappoint partners, so finally I had to do both, plus to help a colleague from Taiwan with a Yocto Linux demo.
Next to my work place at the booth there was a robot solving the Rubik's cube.
The demo was actually not about a robotic arm but about Springville ethernet NIC. A device that have some features relevant for fieldbuses e.g. Profinet they demonstrated.
