From CM5-Based mostly HMI Improvement to Complete Software program Integration, a Partnership targeted on Driving Industrial IoT Innovation.
SECO S.p.A. (“SECO”) and Raspberry Pi Holdings plc (“Raspberry Pi”) are happy to announce a strategic industrial settlement aimed toward increasing their enterprise alternatives by way of collaboration on {hardware} and software program improvement.
This partnership combines SECO’s experience in IoT applied sciences with Raspberry Pi’s versatile computing options, permitting each corporations to handle the rising calls for of business functions by way of revolutionary, custom-made merchandise.
SECO will leverage its {hardware} design experience to deliver a ten.1-inch Human-Machine Interface (HMI) resolution to market, primarily based on Raspberry Pi’s fifth-generation Compute Module (CM5) and supporting Raspberry Pi OS to simplify integration. SECO and Raspberry Pi will collaborate on {hardware} improvement to supply custom-made options tailor-made to industrial shoppers’ particular wants.
As well as, SECO’s Clea IoT software program suite will probably be built-in into the Raspberry Pi OS, making it obtainable on RPI merchandise portfolio. This integration will leverage Raspberry Pi’s {hardware} and software program choices to supply a seamless resolution for system administration, knowledge orchestration, and AI/ML functions, thereby enhancing worth for industrial customers. Moreover, Raspberry Pi Join, a safe and user-friendly service enabling distant entry to Raspberry Pi gadgets through an online browser utilizing WebRTC know-how, will probably be included into SECO’s software program stack. This can make Raspberry Pi Join a part of Clea’s industrial providing on Raspberry Pi gadgets, empowering customers to entry their system’s desktop from wherever. This integration simplifies administration and interplay, notably in industrial functions, and aligns with the deal with integrating Clea into the Raspberry Pi product portfolio and making RPI Join obtainable on the Clea retailer. Moreover, topic to SECO growing a Clea package deal, RPI commits to incorporating Clea into RPI’s repository or the same technical various.
The partnership will proceed to discover alternatives in cutting-edge areas, together with picture recognition, edge AI, and using future Raspberry Pi microcontrollers to create revolutionary options. SECO has gained a protracted historical past and know-how in varied industries similar to vitality administration, sensible constructing, healthcare, espresso and merchandising and industrial automation, and appears ahead to manifesting, sharing and dealing on alternatives in these sectors with Raspberry Pi because of this partnership. Each SECO and Raspberry Pi are dedicated to working collectively to drive progress, effectivity, and innovation within the embedded and industrial markets.
“This partnership represents a great opportunity for SECO to leverage Raspberry Pi’s widely adopted hardware technology and combine the strengths of both companies in software development,” mentioned Massimo Mauri, CEO of SECO.
“We are confident that our combined expertise will drive business growth and innovation in the industrial IoT space, delivering significant value to our stakeholders.”
Eben Upton CEO of Raspberry Pi mentioned “The IPO has opened up a number of partnering discussions with leading industrial OEMS and we are very pleased that one of our first agreements is with SECO. The combination of our combined hardware and software knowhow can deliver customized solutions for end clients that enable new user high performance applications at cost effective price points.”
