Introduction
Flyports are programmable and open source system on module based on Microchip PIC processors with different kind of connectivity to Internet: Wi-Fi, Ethernet and GPRS. Flyport modules are an easy way to control and connect systems over Internet and are pin to pin compatible to let you desing a unique expansion board. You can create your applications running on Flyport, just C/C++ expertize is needed. The IDE is free and on module is preloaded a serial bootloader.
The following services run contemporaneously onboard:
Customizable embedded webserver
TCP/UDP client/server
FTP Client
email Client
Flyport modules architecture
Microcontroller PIC24Fj256 (256K Flash, 16K Ram, 16 Mips)
Transceiver (Wi-Fi, Ethernet, GPRS)
LDO (5V->3.3V)
Flash Memory (16Mbits)
Connector J1 (26 ways) is present in each Flyport module
Connector J2 (26 ways) is present only on Flyport Ethernet and GPRS
Flyport has also the Firmware upgrade over Internet feature: the .hex file can be saved into a FTP server to upgrade modules on the field.
External libraries may be used for external hardware (such as sensors/actuators) or to send/receove data on the Cloud.
DEVELOPERS
openPicus free IDE lets you reduce development time from 4-6 months to just few days. The complex communication stack works in the background managed by freeRTOS and you can easily control its events. Just C/C++ programming skills are needed to start programming Flyport.
