Intel shows off IoT chip at developers’ forum

The world’s largest computer chips maker Intel seems well set on its path of new business. Focusing on virtual reality, machine learning and Internet of Things (IoT), Intel announced several projects during its ongoing three-day Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco this week.

One of them was Joule, the all-in-one chip modules for the IoT. Company Chief Executive Officer Brian Krzanich showed off the new module during a keynote speech at the Forum. The module is a follow-up to Edison, the prior IoT module introduced in 2014.

The Joule technology is a tiny computer on a small module. It can fit in a wide variety of products, from robotics to augmented reality glasses. According to Brian, Joule will allow the seamless transition from prototype to scale. Joule is available in two models — 570x and 550x.
