Built by Makers for Makers
Lophilo
The platform is focused on real-time I/O processing applications such as Multimedia processing, Robotics (sensors and actuators), Machine Vision, Signal processing (Software Radio) and Internet-connected devices
ARM and FPGA
Run Linux on a powerful combo of industrial strength ARM CPU with tight integration to an I/O coprocessor. Use the compact and upgradable XEM card in your own designs.
Sophisticated System
Covers both your real-time I/O processing needs and your client/server web application needs in one package that combines an Altera Cyclone IV FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) and an Atmel AT91SAM9M10 MPU (main processing unit).
Foundation board
Plug in Lophilo or custom shields, connect to your breadboards with jumper wires, to your PC through USB or audio equipment.
Foundation board (backside)
The foundation board offers protection against up to 2000V discharges (human model). An additional connector for expansion is also available on the backside.
Up to two application shields
Add or make your own applications shields that conveniently fit on top of the board. Communication bus with self-identifying ROM (i2c), user-selectable I/O voltage all connected to the FPGA.
Prototyping board
Create your own experimental shield with both through-hole or surface mount components.
Spidershield
Connect sensors using Grove-compatible connectors and cables to sensors (analog and digital) and actuators.
Industry standard low-level interface
Optional JTAG connectors for Lophilo developers are available
Protect your Lophilo
Acrylic covers top and bottom included!
A new platform for Internet connected devices
Built for and by makers
From personal projects to commercial applications: we want to help makers turn their idea into product. We offer a featureful and flexible system enabling you to build a business by creating your own software/hardware product bridging the digital and real-world.
For all skill levels
Lophilo is designed to help people of all skill levels—designer or developer, electronics engineer or early beginner. Use it as a complete kit or for a mass production product.
Connect to everything
Connect to your phone, actuators, sensors, network, USB devices, computer - even wirelessly. General purpose 60Mhz input sampling rate suitable for even the most demanding application!
I/O Processing Grid
Hardware platform using programmable digital logic as the glue between the CPU and the inputs and outputs ports enabling hardware-accelerated innovations such as audio/video codecs implemented in hardware.
One Language to Rule Them All
Javascript - client and server-side, user interface and robots high-level logic. The world most widely deployed programming language now available in your embedded system. Built-in modern software development with all the tools: unit testing, source management, online debugging.
Embedded experience
Benefit from the long-time experience of a world-class embedded system designer with rare expertise with ARM CPUs and FPGA reprogrammable logic. Beautiful and reliable design.
Shields
Up to 2 shields for your own specialized need with plug-and-play capabilities through an innovative shield self-identifying system. Just buy the right shield for what you need in terms of functionality.
Custom foundation boards
Innovative XEM card smaller than a business card lets you embed directly into your own custom solution.
Plenty of I/O
Pre-configured matrix of inputs and outputs processing capabilities. 52 Usable Digital I/O pins, plus reserved i2c autoconfiguration pins. I/O can be independently configured to any voltage between 1.6V and 5.5V by setting the reference level.
HTML5
Built to support HTML5 user interface
