Using Greybus for IoT - Benefits and Challenges

Explore the potential of Greybus for Internet of Things (IoT) applications in this informative 32-minute talk by Alexandre Bailon from BayLibre. Gain insights into the Greybus protocol, originally designed for Project ARA's modular smartphone concept, and learn how it has been adapted to work with TCP/IP for broader IoT use. Discover the protocol's ability to remotely control module buses like I2C and SPI, and understand its benefits and limitations in IoT implementations. Delve into topics such as module discovery, Unipro, device support, GPIO functionality, security considerations, and software aspects. Benefit from Bailon's expertise as a co-founder of BayLibre and former Texas Instruments developer, bringing valuable experience in embedded Linux and kernel development to this exploration of Greybus in IoT contexts.
