Description:

A practical project-based guide to help you build and control your IoT projectsKey FeaturesLeverage the full potential of IoT with the combination of Raspberry Pi 3 and PythonBuild complex Python-based applications with IoTWork on various IoT projects and understand the basics of electronicsBook DescriptionThe Internet of Things (IOT) has managed to attract the attention of researchers and tech enthusiasts, since it powerfully combines classical networks with instruments and devices.In Internet of Things Programming Projects, we unleash the power of Raspberry Pi and Python to create engaging projects. In the first part of the book, you’ll be introduced to the Raspberry Pi, learn how to set it up, and then jump right into Python programming. Then, you’ll dive into real-world computing by creating a“Hello World” app using flash LEDs.As you make your way through the chapters, you’ll go back to an age when analog needle meters ruled the world of data display. You’ll learn to retrieve weather data from a web service and display it on an analog needle meter, and build a home security system using the Raspberry Pi. The next project has a modern twist, where we employ the Raspberry Pi to send a signal to a web service that will send you a text when someone is at the door. In the final project, you take what you've learned from the previous two projects and create an IoT robot car that you can use to monitor what your pets are up to when you are away.By the end of this book, you will be well versed in almost every possible way to make your IoT projects stand out.What you will learnInstall and set up a Raspberry Pi for IoT developmentLearn how to use a servo motor as an analog needle meter to read dataBuild a home security dashboard using an infrared motion detectorCommunicate with a web service that sends you a message when the doorbell ringsReceive data and display it with an actuator connected to the Raspberry PiBuild an IoT robot car that is controlled through the internetWho this book is forInternet of Things Programming Projects is for Python developers and programmers who are interested in building their own IoT applications and IoT-based projects. It is also targeted at IoT programmers and developers who are looking to build exciting projects with Python. Explore the capabilities of the NVIDIA Jetson Nano, an IoT device designed to perform computations like a computer desktop. This book will show you how to build your first project and optimize your devices, programs, and daily activities with the AI computation abilities of the Jetson Nano. This board consists of CPU Quad-core ARM A57 @ 1.43 GHz and GPU 128-core Maxwell. With this hardware specification, the board can run multiple neural networks in parallel for complex AI applications. With the integrated sensor and actuators, this board enables stronger IoT solutions and provides more advanced capabilities.Discover how develop complex IoT projects with the Jetson Nano today.What You’ll LearnSet up NVIDIA Jetson Nano deviceBuild applications like image classification, object detection, segmentation, and speech processingUse the Jetson Nano to process daily computer activities such as browsing the internet, checking emails, or playing music and videosImplement machine learning computations into your projectsWho This Book Is ForMakers, developers, students, and professional of all levels who are new to the NVIDIA Jetson Nano technology.
