MAKE interviewed our own Brian Ziarnick at SXSW 2014 about the new Texas Instruments Connected LaunchPad.

For over 40 years, the international Consumer Electronics Show (CES), held in Las Vegas has served as one of the world’s largest gatherings for innovators to showcase the latest breakthrough technologies.

Is Minn.'s next big thing the Internet of Things? - Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal

Last Wednesday, a reporter from the Minneapoils / St. Paul Business Journal made a stop by the Exosite office to learn more about the growing excitement behind "Internet of Things" technology and the role Exosite is playing in this area.

Exosite and Verizon will highlight the Remote Asset Monitor solution in Las Vegas at the M2M Evolution Conference and Expo. The event is focused around how M2M technologies and the ‘Internet of Things” can be utilized to improve business processes, minimize risk, spark innovation and find new ways to drive revenue. Members across the M2M eco system will discuss their roles in development of new technologies and specific M2M applications will be showcased that have proven market impact in various industries.

For the second consecutive year, Exosite had the opportunity to present at Sensors Expo & Conference, the leading sensors event in North America. The event is focused on sensors and has emerged as one of the largest and most important gatherings of engineers and scientist involved in the development and deployment of sensors systems.

The Exosite team is excited to be a part of the Verizon nationwide Connected Technology Tour (CTT). Exosite is presenting in the Breakout Session entitled "Constructing an M2M Solution" and exhibiting in the Solutions Expo. The CTT launches today and features a series of interactive seminars showcasing the compelling benefits of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) solutions.

Exosite had the privilege of hosting the first Internet of Things Twin Cities / Minnesota Meetup (IoTTwinCiteisMN) last week. A group of around 20 people, some from M2M industry, some who are simply just interested attended. Mark Benson gave a presentation called 'Introduction to the M2M Ecosystem: Emerging Trends' and we were lucky enough to have Drew Johnson here, a co-organizer for the IoTSiliconValley meetup. We want to thank the team from Aeris Communications for providing food and organizing this meetup group.

This summer we have been working with Synapse Wireless and Arrow Electronics to bring M2M kits to the market that are a great starting point for developers and product companies that have a need for local wireless devices (2.4 GHz or 900 MHz) communicating through a gateway to a cloud data/device platform and have a web UI attached to it. (Yes, that's a mouthful.) We've always found the Synapse RF engines and SNAP operating system / application framework to be really useful and easy to pick-up, so we were excited to do this combined effort and take some of our work on the RF Engines and E10 gateway and get it out there for developers.

We ended the Arrow M2M roadshow at the end of March and just realized we completely forgot to post about it.  The roadshow was very successful and we met a lot of engineers and organizations looking to enable their products using different M2M technologies (cellular, local wireless, ethernet, wifi, the cloud, data and device platforms, etc).  We also had a great time with the other companies at the roadshow.

One of the lasts shows was here in Minneapolis, which turned out to be a great event and there was easily a few hundred people in attendance.  We look forward to participating in the future.

Our one and only Erik Rorvick found himself on the Peggy Smedley Show this week on the subject of making M2M solutions simpler, talking about ways to make accessing and analyzing data as easy as possible.  Erik, our Business Developer Manager, had a great chat with Peggy on her radio show, which is known for being the voice of M2M and Connected Devices.  The show is a weekly radio show (12:00 pm CT Tuesdays) that helps listeners not only understand connected devices but also how to make these devices a part of their everyday lives.

Redpine’s ultra-low-power 802.11n Wi-Fi connectivity on Renesas MCUs coupled with cloudbased services from Exosite form easy-to-deploy M2M solutions.

Boston, MA, Feb 27, 2012 – Redpine Signals, Inc., a leading developer of ultra-low-power, high-performance multi-standard wireless chipsets and modules, and Exosite, a provider of cloud-connectivity solutions for embedded applications, today announced a cloud-connected solution enabled on Renesas RX62N and RX63N microcontrollers. Showcased exclusively at the Arrow Electronics M2M Seminar Series, the partnership solution demonstrates Wi-Fi enabled, cloud-based M2M applications on several Renesas development kits .

Today's consumers have the expectation of always-on connectivity & access to data – now the embedded market is embarking on a quest for similar connectivity.  Exosite has teamed with Renesas to enable Renesas products with our cloud-based data platform, embedded API libraries and web dashboards.

Exosite and Renesas will present their solution at  Arrow Electronics M2M Seminar Series and demonstrate how to use the "cloud" as a peripheral for embedded products.

We are excited to be participating in Arrowfest 2011 this year at our local Minneapolis branch. If you are in the Minneapolis area, please feel free to stop down and visit. There is always great food and drinks besides getting to chat with so many companies in one place. The best thing, it's in a tent!
