It made a clear demarcation between the 8/16-bit world at the time and what seemed like overly complex 32-bit architectures. Not to step on too many toes, but with the 8/16-bits of the time, you could “just sit down and code” while it was actually a bit more painful to do so pre-Cortex-M3. AVR32 was another favorite of the early 2000s. A few years later, we saw the birth of the Cortex-M0 and, quickly thereafter, the Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M0+. The last two CPUs arguably being pretty damn good for what they were intended for; embedded applications where energy efficiency, code density, and ease of use are the most sought-after features. Lineup topped with the brutal Cortex-M7 behemoth of a CPU.<h2>The Cortex Conundrum</h2>With most any market and performance profile covered - what came next seemed like a solar eclipse and a 180-degree turn of direction. The introduction of TrustZone into the embedded world. The seemingly unstoppable Cortex-M bonfire ran out of premium fuel, and in came the “security” ready Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33. Anyone that has ever touched the topic of CPUs and security knows that it is better to make that part of the initial plan of a device - not an afterthought. It is pretty near impossible to just retrofit a Cortex-M23/M33 device into an existing device. It is not a simple swap. And based on the speed at which secure enclaves, secure islands etc., popped up, it became pretty clear what embedded in reality wanted was safe and secure storage of encryption keys and use of these. Being able to run trusted and not trusted code in an embedded device is a bit of an elusive idea, to say the least. So as a consumer of embedded devices, you find yourself left with the ONLY option to fix your product’s security by classifying code as secure and not, it begs the question if product security was really well understood at all.<h2>The Dawn of RISC-V</h2>Now being well primed on ARM’s deliverables and a basic understanding of there being many better venues to solve device security than the CPU itself - in the CPU diary, we are now at 2015. Lo and behold, the RISC-V Foundation is created and the definition of the RISC-V architecture is being put in very fertile soil; strong industry players come aboard as backers, and CPU extensions for various application profiles are being defined. Slowly sprouting, it is clear that this is a great platform for embedded devices - and what’s there not to like? &nbsp;Its appeal stems from an open instruction set architecture (ISA), the complete absence of fees or royalties, a versatile range of profiles for a perfect match, stellar performance alongside efficient code density, and the straightforward process of integrating bespoke instructions.<h2>Why RISC-V Shines</h2>And especially for what ONiO is doing, it was a match made in heaven. We have always believed embedded machines were all about; energy efficiency, code density and ease of use. But also being able to tweak the RTL implementation to our own liking, adding instructions to set us apart in applications we know well has tremendous value. If we as a collective pause for a second and reflect upon what a microcontroller is really up against:<div class="raw-html-embed"><ul class="ul--navi">
 <li>
 1
 
 Full custom ASICs that can be completely fixed function and super optimized for a single purpose. Can be very cheap and low power.
 
 </li>
 <li>
 2
 
 FPGA/CPLD: ASICs without the cost of a tapeout. But high cost per device and high power consumption.
 
 </li>
 <li>
 3
 
 Microcontroller: Great tradeoff between, resources available, computational power, flexibility, applicability, physical size and cost.
 
 </li>
<li>
 4
 
 Micro computer/Industrial PC/PLC: Best performance, best flexibility, physically large and costly. Power hungry.
 
 </li>
 </ul> </div>It is clear that a great embedded CPU for a microcontroller has not one key feature to rule. It has a wide list of things to master well enough - it does not have to be perfect in all. But if the designer of the CPU can implement it, customize it, add and subtract from it to solve a specific application; there is tremendous potential and value in RISC-V.<h2>Tailored for ONiO</h2>And that is why we have chosen RISC-V as our CPU of choice at ONiO. We could have made a whitepaper about how well we stack up against an ARM Cortex-M4 with our RV32IMC implementation - but it defeats the purpose - and let’s face it there will always be pros and cons and multiple views on the topic of code editors and choice of CPUs (Pun intended). But being left with the option:<div class="raw-html-embed">

<ul class="ul--navi">
 <li>
 1
 
 To make our own RTL implementation
 
 </li>
 <li>
 2
 
 With instructions tuned for our applications
 
 </li>
 <li>
 3
 
 At no cost
 
 </li>
<li>
 4
 
 Instantiated as many times we want
 
 </li>
<li>
 5
 
 With a free validation environment
 
 </li>
 </ul> </div>Made our choice being beyond Coremark/MHz, Dhrystone score or implementation size, supported standard cell library etc. - but rather based on freedom. By choosing RISC-V we gained the freedom to have energy efficiency, code density, ease of use, tweak the RTL implementation and instructions. And not to forget – the freedom to solve embedded security where it should.

At ONiO, we had to make a choice very early in the company’s history - do we go for the safe option of using a CPU core delivered by ARM, or do we make a bit more rebellious choice? Admittedly and retrospectively, the choice was heavily tainted from being users of ARM products for a long while.

Two seemingly unrelated technologies, each with their own impressive qualities, suddenly find themselves thrown together in a serendipitous twist of fate. And as they mingle, they discover that they can accomplish far more together than they ever could apart. This isn't the premise of a sappy romantic comedy—it's the story of how ambient energy and the Internet of Things (IoT) are joining forces to create a greener, more energy-efficient world.

Ambient Energy and IoT: A Perfect Match for a Greener Tomorrow

Runar Finanger

Poor health surely makes for some of the worst possible human experience - nothing can quite affect the quality of our lives like disease can. Disease though is inevitable - not even the most painfully optimistic among us can refute that cruel dictum of nature - However, poor health shouldn’t be a perpetual reality in our lives. The food we eat, at any rate, shouldn’t be making us sick. So many of today’s prevalent health challenges, such as obesity and diabetes are due to the atrocious food choices we make. Hey, but those are our choices - we like our donuts and that’s fair enough - but, when it’s not our food choices but the way our food is sourced that’s killing us, we have a problem. Today however, due in most part to the disjointed nature of our globalised world, we are more cut off than ever from the sources of our food. For thousands of years we have been eating what we grow or raise in our vicinity. For practical reasons, that might not be possible for most of us today. However, as a technologically advanced civilisation, access to healthy food should surely rank extremely high on our list of priorities? After all, isn’t the availability of good food the primordial human problem? All our wars were pretty much fought, in essence, for more land - i.e access to nourishment. It is nothing short of a travesty then that even after all this progress and wealth creation, we can’t take for granted this essential, life-making requirement - in fact, more than ever before, contaminated food is killing a ridiculous number of people. Even in the developed world, we still lose an unacceptable number of people every year to this entirely avoidable cause. In addition to this egregious loss of life, foodborne illnesses also take a massive toll on the economy - healthcare costs, lost productivity and population loss cumulatively add up to billions of dollars of losses. So obviously, we have to stand up and do something about this - it is pretty much imperative that we find ways to ensure that.<h2>What is Blockchain?</h2>Before we get into how Blockchain can be used for asset tracking, let's first take a step back and understand what Blockchain is.Boiled down to its essence, a blockchain is a decentralized database. This means that there is no central authority that controls the data. Instead, the data is distributed across a network of computers (also known as nodes). Each node in the network has a copy of the data, and all the nodes must agree on any changes made to the data. This makes it very difficult for anyone to tamper with the data. Any blockchain-based construct (think bitcoin), no matter how complex, is based on this simple idea.&nbsp;Now that we have a basic understanding of Blockchain let's look at how it can be used for asset tracking.&nbsp;What is asset tracking though?Asset tracking is the process of tracking the movement of assets, such as products or raw materials, from one location to another. This information is essential for various reasons, including quality control and supply chain management. Traditionally, asset tracking has been done using paper records or barcodes. However, these methods are not very secure. They are also subject to human error. When vast amounts of data are involved, these errors add up in massive ways.&nbsp;Blockchain, on the other hand, &nbsp;is a very secure way to track assets. As we just saw, it’s pretty much tamper-proof. Each transaction is recorded in a block, and each block is chained to the previous block. This creates a tamper-proof record of all transactions.In addition, because Blockchain is a decentralized database, there is no single point of failure. This means that even if one node in the network goes down, the rest of the network can still function normally.<h2>The benefits of Blockchain asset tracking</h2>Asset tracking is a huge problem for any business - when it comes to the food business, the problem is even more severe - after all, the margin for error is very slim, almost non-existent when it comes to food - for obvious reasons as well - human lives are at stake.So what then?Enter blockchain asset tracking - blockchain is a distributed ledger technology that allows for transparent and secure tracking of assets. When it comes to food safety, blockchain asset tracking can be an invaluable tool for businesses and consumers alike.So how does blockchain help in food safety?Well, to put it simply, blockchain can be used to track items throughout the supply chain and identify contaminants at any stage. Blockchain asset tracking provides a number of benefits for both businesses and consumers. Now imagine you own a food establishment - say, a restaurant or even a chain of fast-food joints - here’s why you’ll want to look into using blockchain technology to track your supply chain -&nbsp;Blockchain can provide you with a complete record of where food items have been and when. i.e you can follow your ingredients and raw materials from the source all the way into your hands. This can go a long way in making sure you are able to perform exhaustive QC on your ingredients before serving them to your customers. This information can be used to quickly identify contamination issues and take rectifying measures at the earliest.That’s not all though - as a business owner, blockchain can help you save money by reducing the need for manual data entry and paper records, which are far from fool-proof anyway - pretty nifty huh? &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/onio/image/upload/v1654172107/onio-website/2022-04-30/onio_salmon_on_a_plate_b226ce5dd2.jpg"></figure>For consumers, Blockchain provides transparency and peace of mind. When you buy food that has been tracked using Blockchain, you can be sure that it has been produced safely and securely. You can also trace the produce back to its source, knowing exactly where it came from.<h2>How Blockchain is being used to track salmon</h2>Food contamination happens in a number of ways and more importantly, It can happen at any stage - from farming to manufacturing to packaging and distribution. That's why it's so important to have a system that can track food items throughout the supply chain and identify where contamination occurs. This way, any safety issues can be nipped in the bud and potential problems can be preemptively dealt with.Norwegian salmon is one of the most popular types of salmon globally. In fact, Norway shipped more than 1,393,781 <a href="https://salmonbusiness.com/three-countries-alone-have-imported-more-than-100000-tonnes-of-norwegian-salmon-this-year/">tonnes of Salmon in 2021</a>. Due to its popularity, there is massive worldwide demand for the product. Supply chains are often long - extending across continents. This being the case, it is crucial to ensure that Norwegian salmon is safe for human consumption, by the time it gets on your plate, say in New York City. Blockchain is playing a significant role in ensuring this.<h3>Fake Salmon</h3>The salmon industry is particularly vulnerable to fraud. Salmon is a high-value commodity, and there is often a temptation to cut corners to increase profits. This means, suppliers can often resort to the use of lower quality ingredients, false labeling, and other forms of fraud.Blockchain can help combat fraud in the salmon industry by providing a transparent and secure way to track assets. For example, blockchain-based tracking can verify the origin of salmon and ensure that it has been raised sustainably. In addition, Blockchain can track the movement of salmon throughout the supply chain, from farm to table. This would make it very difficult for fraudsters to tamper with the product.Fraud harms consumers and damages the reputation of the salmon industry. The Norwegian Seafood Association has started using blockchain asset tracking for Norwegian salmon to combat this problem.In 2021, the country exported over €8.1 billion worth of salmon. Given the importance of the salmon industry to the Norwegian economy, it's no surprise that the country is a pioneer in using Blockchain for food tracing.In 2016, the Norwegian Seafood Council launched a pilot program to track Norwegian salmon using blockchain technology. The project was developed in partnership with IBM and Microsoft, and it used the <a href="https://www.hyperledger.org/">Hyperledger Fabric</a> platform.The aim of the project was to create a system that would allow consumers to trace the journey of their salmon from farm to table.<h3>Trace your fish back to the farm</h3><a href="https://www.kvaroyarctic.com/">Kvarøy Arctic</a> is a significant supplier of Norwegian farmed salmon, which has recently joined the <a href="https://www.ibm.com/blockchain/solutions/food-trust">IBM Food Trust</a> to improve traceability and foster consumer confidence throughout its supply chain. They wanted to give corporate buyers, such as select Whole Foods Market shops in the United States and Canada, and eateries, access to a QR code that can show a provenance history for Arctic salmon and the feed it was raised on.<blockquote>Blockchain is the future for ending fraud in the seafood industry. It is a level of transparency that shows our dedication to being the best of the best. The technology tracks a level of detail that helps us reduce food waste so we can feed more people in the world.&nbsp;- Alf-Gøran Knutsen, CEO of Kvarøy Arctic</blockquote><figure class="image"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/onio/image/upload/v1654172792/onio-website/2022-04-30/salmon_ice_7a6ec969c0.jpg"></figure>Buyers interested in the farms will be able to download photos and videos, allowing them to see for themselves how Kvarøy Arctic handles animal care and conditions. In the future, the firm plans to release a consumer app that will provide information on the quality and sustainability of its seafood.This is just one example of how Blockchain is used to track food items and ensure safety. As the technology evolves, we can expect to see more and more companies using Blockchain to track their products and ensure stricter quality control.<h2>The QR code deception</h2>Our Norwegian salmon tale might sound like it's all roses and sunshine - but alas, nothing ever is. As is often the case with most things, there's a major but. QR codes are the most commonly used modality for food tracking. Even though blockchain technology is regarded as very trustworthy, the trustworthiness of QR codes themselves is hotly disputed. From a fraudster's standpoint, QR codes are just a piece of cake to work around - &nbsp;just a few additional cents in additional cost to photocopy the labels. QR stickers are completely reproducible, and the links to where they take you are readily available to everyone. Several online services allow you to generate your own code from whatever weblink you choose. As a result, a QR-based solution might even encourage counterfeiting and become more hazardous than not using one at all!<blockquote>The weakest link in the chain is not blockchain or any technology; the weakest link is the piece of sticky tape that puts the label on the package.&nbsp;- Craig Heraghty, agribusiness leader at PwC.</blockquote>So, what can be done? We need to think like fraudsters, always discovering the simplest methods to get around supply chain tracking, in spite of sophisticated and complex technology solutions.To address this, food retailers and blockchain firms will need to collaborate in order to devise solutions that prevent products from being tampered with before they reach store shelves.<h3>The Shining Knight - ONiO.zero</h3>The key is to combine the security of blockchain technology with the safety of a seal that combines both physical (hardware) and digital protection. That's precisely what is attainable with ONiO.zero.&nbsp;ONiO.zero is a wireless and batteryless microcontroller with built-in sensors for temperature and tampering. Each chip has a UUID stored in a non-fungible memory (Yes, it does actually have that). This UUID is used as part of the transmission to the ledger. It's easy enough to validate that with a list of current UUIDs. The issue now is that for the tech-savvy it still would be possible to replicate this solution. To prevent that from happening - some further steps were taken. You can read about that in our whitepaper: <a href="https://hubs.ly/Q01cHGn60">BLOCKCHAIN BASED ASSET TRACKING USING ONiO.zero</a>.<h2>ONiO fish &amp; chip - a simple demo</h2>We created an application for tracking frozen salmon at ONiO. A crate of fish was equipped with a sensor using the ONiO.zero platform and was moved between different locations (Norway, Germany, USA, and Japan). Each receiving location could examine the case using our Bluetooth-enabled ONiO gateway and save the data in the Blockchain. This was done in accordance with the following requirements:<div class="raw-html-embed"><div class="raw-html-embed"><ul class="ul--navi"> <li> 1 Data has not been tampered with or altered </li> <li> 2 It is accurate </li> <li> 3 A systematic way to fuse other data with your own to create new insights </li> <li> 4 An efficient scheme to distribute data - no single point of failure </li></ul> </div></div><div class="raw-html-embed"><div style="position:relative;padding-bottom: 56.25%;padding-top: 30px;height:0;overflow: hidden;">
 <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eVYYs8kk9xw" style="border: 0; position:absolute;top: 0;left: 0;width: 100%; height: 100%;"></iframe>
</div></div>&nbsp;The video above doesn't really show in-depth how it's done. Still, it's a simple visual demonstration of a solution that provides both physical and digital protection for your asset tracking using the ONiO.zero microcontroller.<figure class="image"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/onio/image/upload/v1654170871/onio-website/2022-04-30/onio_salmon_demo_screen_23d75e815a.jpg"><figcaption>Screen-dump showing CO2 footprint, the temperature during the scan, data of origin, and journey.</figcaption></figure><h2>Challenges faced by the food industry</h2>While blockchain asset tracking provides many benefits, there are some notable challenges that need to be addressed -One of the biggest challenges is scalability. The food supply chain is vast and complex, with millions of products being transported worldwide every day. It can be challenging to track all of these items using blockchain technology.Another challenge is data quality. For blockchain asset tracking to be effective, businesses need to input accurate and up-to-date data into the system. This can be a challenge, particularly for small businesses that may not have the resources or expertise to do this effectively.Finally, there is the issue of cost. Blockchain technology can be expensive to implement, and it may not be feasible for all businesses in the food industry.<h2>Summary</h2>Blockchain asset tracking is a very promising new vista that Iot technology is offering us. Yes, there are some challenges that stand in the way of immediate implementation on a large scale, but in spite of these challenges, blockchain asset tracking has the potential to transform the food industry. The value-adds it promises are pretty hard to ignore - cost savings, transparency, traceability and as a result, improved food safety and fewer lives lost to food contamination.&nbsp;<div class="raw-html-embed"><a href="https://hubs.ly/Q01cHGn60" class="resource resource--black"> Download the Whitepaper <svg width="21" height="21" viewBox="0 0 21 21" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="svg">

Did you know that one in ten people get sick every year from eating contaminated food? In the United States, that amounts to about 48 million people. Of these 48 million, 128,000 are hospitalized, and about 3000 meet a fatal end. These numbers are staggering, and they underscore the importance of keeping our food supply safe and secure. As such, we live in perilous times where the quality of the food we eat is <a href="https://www.onio.com/article/our-huge-soil-problem-how-iot-help.html">dubious</a> at best. Thanks to modern technology, today we have a number of savvy ways to monitor and control the quality of what goes into us - One way is through blockchain asset tracking. In this article, we’ll look at how Blockchain is being used to track Norwegian salmon and ensure that they are as safe as can be when they end up on our plates.

Ambient energy harvesting is, without a doubt, the future of IoT technology. Just 10 years ago, the idea of powering tiny computers with energy drawn from thin air would have sounded nothing short of ridiculous. However, today, energy harvesting technologies have come a long way - we have multiple viable energy harvesting technologies in the market and they have caused quite the stir. In our bid to free IoT from the clutches of the battery and usher in a world of self-powered, battery-less IoT, we have achieved tremendous success in finding tenable and economically sensible models of harvesting ambient energy for use in microelectronics. In this article, we break down the basics of ambient energy harvesting and highlight their key advantages over battery-based solutions.
