Erlang and Elixir on IoT devices using AtomVM

Boost your IoT project with functional languages
UD2.218A
Davide Bettio
This talk will present AtomVM, a tiny portable virtual machine that allows Elixir and Erlang code to run on microcontrollers with less than 500KB of RAM such as the ESP32 or several STM32.
Erlang and Elixir are really good at handling network packets, running concurrent processes, dealing with faults, writing testable software and enabling rapid development. All this features are relevant for any language or framework that aims to IoT devices, therefore Erlang and Elixir might be good choice for IoT devices. However the BEAM, which is the standard Erlang and Elixir VM, cannot fit on those devices. AtomVM aims to overcome this limitation, by implementing a tiny virtual machine from scratch. This talk aims to present AtomVM and to show how a functional language such as Elixir might boost development of IoT projects.

Some constrained embedded systems cannot use batteries, those are called transiently-powered embedded systems. They can be equipped with a non volatile RAM (NVRAM) and a super capacitor for gathering energy when available. Developing in such an environment is not straight. During this talk, we will expose our work on a constrained real time OS tolerant with power loss on a MSP430 based platform. This platform is a MSP430FR5994 Launchpad equipped with FRAM and a super capacitor.

Technical barrier to target low cost micro controllers can be too high for many developers already used to high level API. But did you know that those devices can support many operating systems like NuttX inspired by POSIX (same for Linux), but it goes even behind than C APIs, even JavaScript runtimes like IoT.js can be supported too. IoT.js can also support JS community modules such as Generic-sensor-lite to support sensors and actuators or webthing-iotjs to enable REST API for embedded ...

While Machine Learning is usually deployed in the cloud, lightweight versions of these algorithms that fit for constrained IoT systems such as microcontrollers are appearing. Using Machine Learning « at-the-edge » has indeed several advantages such as the reduction of network latency, it provides better privacy, and are working offline. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how to deploy Deep Learning algorithms on IoT devices thanks to TensorFlow Lite. We will see how to use it to design ...

We propose a combined visual and text-based programming environment based on the actor model suitable for novice to expert programmers. This model encompasses simple communicating entities which easily scale from utilizing threads inside the computer to massive distributed computer systems. Our proposal is very suitable for IOT scenarios, creative coding practices and rapid prototyping. The prototype utilizes zeromq transports and embeds python for easy creation of actors.

We will have to talk about Tarantool Cartridge: it's framework for creating distributed applications. The application will be based on Tarantool – blazing fast in-memory database and Lua application server in one. Instances interconnect with each other by SWIM protocol – UDP Gossip protocol. We believe that our platform can bring brand new opportunities for the IoT world: we have the aggregated solution for many potential cases in IoT.
