[TriEmbed] Fwd: Re: Arduino - open HW Raleigh startup -Feedback Request

Hi Michael,
Unfortunately, I missed the last TriEmbed meeting.  I understand you are working on a KickStarter project for Chariot.  When do you plan to go live?
Sincerely,Kevin Schilf

Good critique, thanks Glen.

I should probably know this, and I certainly should have looked it up rather than just remaining ignorant, but for the record, in your KickStarter, be sure to define 6LoWPAN. I can trade TLA's with the best of them but I never got to IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks until this note.

Hi Martin,Your first question: are you asking why we went with an 8 bit over a 32bit ARM?Regarding Xbee:Many “standard” and proprietary protocols use the media-access controller (MAC) and the physical circuits (PHY) associated with IEEE 802.15.4 radios. Those protocols use their own arrangements of bits and bytes to transfer information between nodes, but none of them use the Internet Protocol (IP). So they cannot directly communicate with Internet-based devices and Web servers/browsers. The IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN) standard offers an alternative because it employs the IPv6 protocol and can operate equally well over wireless and wired connections.At Qualia, we see an untapped area of creativity and innovation in reusable data web apps by combining IPv6/CoAP at the edge. CoAP is interoperable with HTTP but designed specifically for tiny tesource constrained devices. Thus, any device running IP, no matter how small, can provide data for application development. This presents an entire new paradigm of application development. 
We've created and will release at the time of our crowdfunding launch tutorials that makes 6LoWPAN much easier to work with.

It would help if you could clarify why 6LoWPAN is better for an 8 bit micro to access the world.
Is this cheaper or easier than a bunch of Xbee or other IEEE 802.15.4 enabled Arduino devices talking to an internet enabled arduino like a YUN?
My guess is it will all depend on how easy to use the libraries are, unless it is a lot cheaper.
Cheers,
