The DragonBoard™ 410c, a low-cost development board built by
Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE: ARW) and based on the Qualcomm®
Snapdragon™ 410 processor—a product of Qualcomm Technologies,
Inc.—is ready to work with the Microsoft Azure “Internet of Things”
(IoT) Suite.
The recently launched Microsoft Azure Certified for IoT aims to
help customers save time and effort by testing and verifying that
connected devices work with the Azure IoT Suite and can quickly
connect to the cloud. Arrow is part of a select group of companies
joining Microsoft Azure Certified for Internet of Things.
“Arrow is actively guiding IoT innovation forward for our
customers, and this certification will help our customers save time
and effort,” said Jeff Reed, chief technology officer for Arrow’s
Systems Integration business. “The DragonBoard 410c by Arrow
Electronics is already driving innovation in embedded computing
products—I can’t wait to see the exciting new IoT products that
developers and makers will create now that the dev board is
certified compatible with Microsoft Azure IoT Suite.”
The DragonBoard 410c features the Snapdragon 410 processor and
is based on Linaro’s open-source 96Boards specifications. The
DragonBoard offers a Quad-core ARM® Cortex™ A53, advanced
processing power, WLAN, Bluetooth, and GPS—all packed into a
development board the size of a credit card.
The low-cost board is ideal for a wide variety of applications,
including prototyping, next-generation robotics, medical devices,
building automation, digital signage and gaming consoles—to name
just a few. Arrow can provide developers with the design
engineering support and supply chain connections to help them
transition their DragonBoard prototypes into commercial products.

Arrow and Microsoft previously collaborated on an end-to-end IoT
solution that transformed a modified race car—dubbed the Arrow
Semi-Autonomous Motorcar, or SAM car—at the Sonoma Grand prix
IndyCar race in August. The car is capable of collecting real-time
measurements and sensor data, including biometrics like heart rate,
as well as telemetry from the car’s driving system, and
environmental conditions like temperature and light. A 4G-LTE IoT
gateway running Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, streams the data from
the SAM car to the Arrow IoT Connect platform, which runs on the
trusted Microsoft Azure cloud platform. Applications, including an
easy-to-consume data dashboard—can access the data for a variety of
purposes, such as improving the SAM car’s performance, conducting
advanced analytics and developing next-generation video games.
