Demo abstract: A multithreaded arduino system for embedded computing

Abstract

Arduino [1] is an open source platform that offers a clear and simple environment for physical computing. It is now widely used in modern robotics and Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, due in part to its low-cost, ease of programming, and rapid prototyping capabilities. Sensors and actuators can easily be connected to the analog and digital I/O pins of an Arduino device, which features an on-board microcontroller programmed using the Arduino API. We present Qduino, a system developed for Arduino compatible boards. It is built upon our Quest realtime operating system kernel [4] and new Arduino-compatible boards.
