Description

This book explores the basic concepts and programming fundamentals related to the practical applications of Internet of Things (IoT) with real-time IoT application development. It provides basic understanding of IoT characteristics, architectures, applications and its security. All technical details related to the basics of electronics which includes charge, resistance, current and voltage, microcontrollers, pulse modulations, signals and its conversions, are explained. It also incorporates the programming fundamentals of embedded C using Arduino IDE which includes the basic syntax, data types and variables used in Arduino IDE, operators, conditional statements, loops and C library functions used for embedded C programming. This book also provides a brief description on the types of sensors and actuators along with the experimental summary of interfacing sensors with Arduino microcontrollers. Transferring sensor data over the internet to the cloud storage using ESP8266 NodeMCU is also explained with examples.
