This document summarizes a presentation about Microsoft's Windows Developer Program for IoT. The program aims to bring Windows to small IoT devices by allowing developers to use familiar Windows and .NET tools to develop for resource-constrained embedded devices. It leverages the Windows platform and hardware ecosystem to make IoT development easier. The presentation demonstrates connecting sensors to a Raspberry Pi 2 running Windows 10 through the developer program.

4. What is the Internet of Things?
The network of physical objects
that contain embedded
technology to communicate and
interact with their internal states
or the external environment.
Source: Gartner
The term was created by Kevin Ashton in 1999
to describe a technology for the unique
identification of objects within a "network“.

5. What is the Internet of Things?
IoT is not just about collecting data, it’s about
how you can use these data to gain value
“An Embedded Device connected to the Internet is
NOT an Internet Of Things Device !!!”
An “IoT Device” does not exists !
You have IoT when you have Things (Devices) and
Internet, a Solution that Integrates Devices and
Internet-Based Services is an IoT Product

6. IoT is at an inflection point
Components

inexpensive
Connectivity
is pervasive
Development

13. Windows Developer Program for
IoT
This is the first in a series of
Internet of Things (IoT) programs
for the creation of connected
devices. This program is tailor-
made for both makers and
Windows developers entering
into the IoT space.
Designed for developers
Leverage the Windows platform
and its diverse hardware
ecosystem. Utilize familiar Win32
programming using best in-class
development and debugging
tools.
Windows platform with
Visual Studio
The accessibility of Arduino
combined with the connectivity of
Windows. Quickly iterate and
expand on hardware and software
designs using existing shields and
sketches

14. Microsoft & Makers: Intel Galileo
Microcontroller Intel® Quark™ SoC X1000 with 16 KB
CACHE and 512 KB SRAM, 400 MHz
RAM 256 MB
Connectors 20 GPIO, 6 PWM, 2 UART, I2C, SPI,
Mini-PCI Express, RJ45 Ethernet, USB
host and client
Storage Micro SD slot (up to 32GB)
Compatibility Compatible with most arduino shields
You can download and install Windows*
for Intel Galileo, both gen 1 and gen 2.

15. We’re excited to announce that
we are expanding our Windows
Developer Program for IoT by
delivering a version of Windows
10 that supports Raspberry Pi 2.
This release of Windows 10 will
be free for the Maker community
through the Windows Developer
Program for IoT.
