10. MAIN BENEFITS • Resource stretching: grow your assets in the bottlenecks without additional funds • New incredible functionality thankfulness to unique resource combinations • Ease of use: focus on how the service is used, not how the devices are connected and configured • Technical complexity is hidden from consumers – things "just work" • Higher level of context awareness • Extreme flexibility, thankfulness to modularity • Developers not constrained by delays of standards being formalized • Low maintenance costs: peer is simple to maintain, • even if the kernel and device system is developed additional • Compact enabler (the peer) • Light interface to the device's system: just IP and messaging© Ixonos Plc
11. TECHNOLOGY: MAIN ELEMENTS • Most elements exist today, just separately • We can bring them collectively • Key technologies: • Virtualization: VirtualBox etc… • Clustering: LinuxPMI etc…. • Media and content distribution: RTSP etc … • Device discovery and management: Broadcast messages etc… • P2P technologies: Distributed hashes etc… • With different processor architectures (x86, ARM etc), no transfer of native code • Runtime Virtual Machines: Dalvik etc… • POC in user space → peer for x86 ≠ peer for ARM© Ixonos Plc
12. INTRODUCTION IN PHASES PHASE 1 PHASE 2 • Introduction can be done in two phases: RUNTIME user space 1. User space demo user space 2. Kernel implementation PEER • This enables verifying and kernel testing the system CAPABILITIES HW / SW kernel© Ixonos Plc
13. NUMBER OF USE CASES: ONE ZILLION • No predefinition for HOW and for WHAT the assets are used • Not limited to use-cases or functionality someone else has chose • Unlimited options • Maximized efficiency: each device performs the task it is most capable of doing, and communicates directly with others • A control device, such as a smart phone, is not burdened by handling all traffic • Can be expanded with remote capabilities from a "traditional" cloud – not a must. • Can be accessed remotely© Ixonos Plc
14. SAMPLE USE CASE 0. Discovery 5. 1. Dispatch "File Provider" 1. executable code / mini-app 2. 3. 2. Dispatch "Media Player" executable code / mini-app 3. Assign Source to Media Centre 4. 4. Connect 6. 5. "Play" 6. Read and play media© Ixonos Plc
15. PHONE MIC & CAMERA TO SKYPE CHAT ON TV Video chat on your TV by using the phone´s camera and mic© Ixonos Plc LinuxCon Europe Oct 2011 15
16. TV RECOGNIZES IF THE USER LEAVES THE ROOM The TV can use the phone mic and IR camera to recognise when a viewer leaves the room, and intermission.© Ixonos Plc
17. VOICE-COMMANDED TV REMOTE Control TV with your mobile phone by giving voice commands.© Ixonos Plc LinuxCon Europe Oct 2011 17
18. ADDITIONAL TV FEATURES Interoperability linking all the vendors would ensure that the extra TV features can become industry-standard expanding the interactive TV feature possibilities significantly.© Ixonos Plc LinuxCon Europe Oct 2011 18
19. THE FUTURE OF TV METRICS Instant tracking of TV show performance • How many people are in the room • How they react to the show (laugh/weep) • Are they just watching TV or using additional devices • The composed data can be matched to the identity of the cloud© Ixonos Plc
20. PLAYLIST BASED ON SHARED MUSIC Generate playlists for parties that best matches the collective musical taste of guests.© Ixonos Plc LinuxCon Europe Oct 2011 20
21. PROTECTING THE ONES YOU LOVE Notifications about people's whereabouts, for example your kids' when they are playing outside, based on their phone GPS location (or WiFi/Bluetooth range), are viewable on your TV screen.© Ixonos Plc
22. REMOTE MANAGEMENT OF HOME When unknown is at home, it goes to energy-save mode. When you are 2kms away, your home starts to prepare itself by reinstating normal room temperature. Before you enter, the lights turn on for you. Antti is 2 kms away – prepare the house.© Ixonos Plc
23. REMOTE ACCESS TO HomeEcho "MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME" Link your HomeEcho (personal settings/files) to Hotel© Ixonos Plc LinuxCon Europe Oct 2011 23
24. HOME CLOUD EXTENDED WITH REMOTE CLOUD HomeEcho Remote cloud services Office applications Bought remote services Storage space Games/Media Payment Streams processor© Ixonos Plc
25. WHAT NEEDS TO BE BUILT? • Linux clustering in an embedded environment • clustering projects are focused on workstations and servers • Integration to existing IDEs (Eclipse etc…) and SDKs (Android SDK etc…) • to enable SW development in these environments • API and later components • An open-source project surrounded by Linux ecosystem, to renovate the solution and distribute its contents? 1. The runtime-based node 2. The build in the kernel 3. Porting efforts to different Linux distributions Challenges: • Consumer electronics market is fragmented • If implemented on only half of the devices, consumers become disappointed with the "additional half" • Security of communications and execution privileges PORTABILITY IS A KEY DRIVER!© Ixonos Plc
26. ECOSYSTEM • Impact on the development ecosystem • Taking Linux to a new level: not only using Linux everywhere and connecting it with everything, but doing things beyond the thoughts • Impact on commercial developers • Business opportunities for making new use cases and programming HomeEcho mini-apps • Sell mini-apps to electronics companies • Sell mini-apps to consumers via app stores • Impact on electronics companies (home electronics, smartphones) • Differentiating devices with HomeEcho • Mini-apps optimized for your devices, include enhanced functionality • Value-add services enabled by HomeEcho© Ixonos Plc

Ixonos' Antti Aumo, VP, Comprehensive Marketing, introduces an intriguing concept where multiple devices in the home environment make an instant private cloud thus providing extended functionality to all the devices participating in the cloud. The role of the smart phone changes from a passive consumer of services and assets to an intelligent service provider thus enabling radically new services and a new level of user experience to the consumers. Open first at the LinuxCon Europe in 2011, Prague, Czech Republic, on 27 October 2011.
