IoT Projects with Bluetooth Low Energy
Sobre aquest llibre
If you're an application developer, a hardware enthusiast, or just curious about the Internet of Things and how to convert it into hands-on projects, then this book is for you. Having some knowledge of writing mobile applications will be advantageous.
What You Will LearnLearn about the architecture and IoT uses of BLE, and in which domains it is being used the mostSet up and learn about various development platforms (Android, iOS, Firebase, Raspberry Pi, Beacons, and GitHub)Create an Explorer App (Android/iOS) to diagnose a Fitness TrackerDesign a Beacon with the Raspberry Pi and write an app to detect the BeaconWrite a mobile app to periodically poll the BLE tracking sensorCompose an app to read data periodically from temperature and humidity sensorsExplore more applications of BLE with IoTDesign projects for both Android and iOS mobile platformsIn DetailBluetooth Low Energy, or Bluetooth Smart, is Wireless Personal Area networking aimed at smart devices and IoT applications. BLE has been increasingly adopted by application developers and IoT enthusiasts to establish connections between smart devices.
This book initially covers all the required aspects of BLE, before you start working on IoT projects. In the initial stages of the book, you will learn about the basic aspects of Bluetooth Low Energy—such as discovering devices, services, and characteristics—that will be helpful for advanced-level projects. This book will guide you through building hands-on projects using BLE and IoT. These projects include tracking health data, using a mobile App, and making this data available for health practitioners; Indoor navigation; creating beacons using the Raspberry Pi; and warehouse weather Monitoring. This book also covers aspects of Bluetooth 5 (the latest release) and its effect on each of these projects.
By the end of this book, you will have hands-on experience of using Bluetooth Low Energy to integrate with smart devices and IoT projects.
Style and ApproachA practical guide that will help you promote yourself into an expert by building and exploring practical applications of Bluetooth Low Energy.
