KETCube – The Universal Prototyping IoT Platform

The IoT (Internet of Things) devices continue to penetrate into new areas of our daily lives as well as industry. The evolution of IoT devices comes with the necessity of operation in heterogeneous environments. This evolution brings new challenges in the areas of R&D and education. We identify important features beneficial for R&D engineers as well as for educationalists and students and we propose a novel open platform for rapid development of IoT nodes. This platform is easy to employ in the educational process at the same time.
