Wireless Design • The electric imp card includes a WiFi radio suppor5ng 802.11b/g/n, and has an integrated antenna. We have dealt with building, tuning and approving a class-‐leading radio solu5on. 2. Embedded Network Firmware • The electric imp card soqware includes a standards compliant IP stack and TLS security to ensure easy and secure connec5ons to our service. The card will also auto-‐update its opera5ng soqware from our servers when necessary. 3. Network Configura0on • Our patent-‐pending BlinkUp op5cal configura5on scheme ensures easy network configura5on, and supports WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryp5on schemes as well as WPS setup. 4. Device SoSware • Vendors develop their applica5on-‐dependent soqware on our website using a web-‐based IDE. A web-‐ based console shows how many devices are online and allows soqware updates to be instantly pushed to customers via our service. 5. Internet Service • We operate a secure, reliable, distributed internet service which serves all the imps in the world. The vendor doesn’t need to operate any servers of their own. 6. Smartphone Applica0ons • If customers want a to have a dedicated app, it can connect to our server via our open API, and can use the BlinkUp op5cal configura5on scheme via our libraries. 7. Integra0on With Other Devices and Services • Our service provides email, SMS and TwiCer gateways, and also allows devices from mul5ple vendors to operator together harmoniously. electric imp is already becoming a market leader Since launching in May 2012, electric imp has been recognized as an innova5on leader providing disrup5ve technology. “Apple can learn something from companies like Electric Imp.” electric imp selected as the #1 disrup5ve technology start-‐up of 2012 “This Is How You Will Connect Everything in Your Home to the Internet” “We’re going nuts over this one.” 10 confiden5al – not for distribu5on
