I would argue it makes it marginally more secure - you probably aren't
getting MITM'd by a script kiddie at the coffee shop, which immediately my
first thought every time I see the red warning in Chrome.

Does the project have a paypal address for donations? I can send you $10 if
that's what the money would go towards.

Best,

No. The new cacert.org - signed cert is not in the root trust store of most
browsers - http://wiki.cacert.org/InclusionStatus
I think you'll need to purchase one unfortunately.

Re: [riot-devel] NFC & Atmel AT86RF232B

2015-03-18 Thread Craig Younkins
I think the at86rf231 driver works with the 212B or will otherwise require
minimal changes. I have not tested it but anticipate using it. In the linux
kernel they are both supported in the same file.

Re: [riot-devel] Benchmarks

2015-03-17 Thread Craig Younkins
Hi Simon,

Throughput will be highly dependent upon the RF environment and what
transceiver you are using. The M0+ most likely has enough power to do it
under ideal conditions, but retransmissions due to collisions will limit
the effective bandwidth.

You can use 900 mhz and 2.4 ghz transceivers with 15.4. ~900 is
significantly less crowded but lower theoretical bandwidth. The Atmel 212B
is 900 Mhz and specs 1000 kbps as the max air data rate.

Which transceiver are you using?

[riot-devel] Looking for RIOT consultants/contractors

2015-03-11 Thread Craig Younkins
Hello RIOTers,

I work for a small business that does remote temperature monitoring for
food safety (https://freshtemp.com) and we're strongly considering RIOT for
the next version of our system.

I wrote a small microkernel that is used in some of our other products and
so am familiar with OS and embedded programming on Atmel AVRs, but I am not
familiar with RIOT.

We're looking for a contractor or consultant that can answer my many
questions about RIOT and assist us in getting up to TCP/UDP-level
communication with the stack described below. We are looking for someone
fairly familiar with RIOT already, and we expect to use 15 hours to 50
hours of this person's time. The time will depend on what amount of RIOT
modifications are necessary for our platform, and what problems we run into.

Our stack:
   - Sensors
  * Undecided MCU but probably ARM Cortex M0 or M0+
  * ATZB-RF-212B-0-CN RF module operating on 900 MHz using
the AT86RF212B transceiver
  * Requires high-ish accuracy timekeeping with external crystal
  * Requires access to ADC for temperature measurement
  * Battery powered and thus power sensitive - need to be able to use
low power states of MCU

   - Gateway
  * Linux SOM (probably Variscite) with Cortex A9
  * ATZB-RF-212B-0-CN RF module operating on 900 MHz using
the AT86RF212B transceiver

   - Wireless
  * Star topology
  * 6lowpan on 802.15.4 on 900 MHz, chosen because of compatibility
with linux. If another layer on top of 15.4 would result in better power
numbers, that would be valuable info to have
  * Hopefully able to utilize 15.4's Guaranteed Time Slices (GTS) to
reduce power consumption

Experience with the linux side of this communication system would be very
nice, but not necessary.

So are you interested in getting paid to work on RIOT? Send me an email at
craig [at] freshtemp.com off list and provide some credentials and why we
should work with you.

Thank you!
