Internet of Things with Python

Book Description

Key Features

• Rapidly prototype even complex IoT applications with Python and put them to practical use
• Enhance your IoT skills with the most up-to-date applicability in the field of wearable tech, smart environments, and home automation
• Interact with hardware, sensors, and actuators and control your DIY IoT projects through Python

Book Description

Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the way devices/things interact with each other. And when you have IoT with Python on your side, you’ll be able to build interactive objects and design them.

This book lets you stay at the forefront of cutting-edge research on IoT. We’ll open up the possibilities using tools that enable you to interact with the world, such as Intel Galileo Gen 2, sensors, and other hardware. You will learn how to read, write, and convert digital values to generate analog output by programming Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) in Python. You will get familiar with the complex communication system included in the board, so you can interact with any shield, actuator, or sensor.

Later on, you will not only see how to work with data received from the sensors, but also perform actions by sending them to a specific shield. You’ll be able to connect your IoT device to the entire world, by integrating WiFi, Bluetooth, and Internet settings. With everything ready, you will see how to work in real time on your IoT device using the MQTT protocol in python.

By the end of the book, you will be able to develop IoT prototypes with Python, libraries, and tools.

What you will learn

• Prototype and develop IoT solutions from scratch with Python as the programming language
• Develop IoT projects with Intel Galileo Gen 2 board along with Python
• Work with the different components included in the boards using Python and the MRAA library
• Interact with sensors, actuators, and shields
• Work with UART and local storage
• Interact with any electronic device that supports the I2C bus
• Allow mobile devices to interact with the board
• Work with real-time IoT and cloud services
• Understand Big Data and IoT analytics

图书描述

物联网(IoT)正在彻底改变设备/事物之间的交互方式。当你有了物联网，有了Python，你就能够构建和设计交互对象了。

这本书让您置身于物联网前沿研究的前沿。我们将使用使您能够与世界互动的工具，如英特尔伽利略第二代、传感器和其他硬件，打开可能性。您将学习如何通过在Python中编程脉冲宽度调制(PWM)来读取、写入和转换数字值以生成模拟输出。您将熟悉电路板中包含的复杂通信系统，因此您可以与任何屏蔽、执行器或传感器进行交互。

稍后，您不仅将看到如何处理从传感器接收的数据，还将通过将它们发送到特定的屏蔽来执行操作。通过集成WiFi、蓝牙和互联网设置，您将能够将您的物联网设备连接到整个世界。一切准备就绪后，您将看到如何在您的物联网设备上使用PYTHON中的MQTT协议实时工作。

在本书的最后，您将能够使用Python、库和工具开发物联网原型。

你将学到什么

• 使用Python作为编程语言，从头开始开发物联网解决方案的原型
• 使用英特尔Galileo Gen 2主板和Python开发物联网项目
