Internet of Things

The term internet of things was coined only in 2008, but within the next 10 years (in 2018) there were already more than 7 billion IoT devices connected to the internet, and the number is set to increase exponentially. IoT has enabled multiple inter-connected devices to sense and transfer data wirelessly over the internet to provide vital data and control in areas like Home automation, Location tracking, Asset monitoring etc..

This section provides a wide variety of IoT Projects with complete resources including circuit diagram and code, allowing you to build and test your own IoT applications. It also discusses the recent IoT Technology Trends and keeps you updated with the latest IoT News.

As we know that IoT revolution has started from last few years, since then ESP series Wi-Fi modules become very popular among hobbyists and industries. It is a very small chip and can be embedded in small devices. Also, it is cost effective and anyone who knows the basics of Arduino programming can program it and use it in their projects to make it an IoT enabled device.…

STMicroelectronics announced extended support for Amazon FreeRTOS with new starter kits for the STM32, ST’s popular family of 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M microcontrollers. 

 

ST is leveraging AWS to boost designers’ efforts to create easily connectable Internet of Things (IoT) nodes with the combination of ST’s…

IoT is everywhere. Working hand in hand with technologies like blockchain and machine learning, it is changing everything, from the way we order groceries, to the way we maintain machines and equipment. The applications of IoT cuts across all fields and industries. From utility management and transportation to education and agriculture, helping businesses to deliver more…

Humidity, Temperature and Pressure are three basic parameters to build any Weather Station and to measure environmental conditions. We have previously built a Digital Thermometer web server using NodeMCU and this time we are extending it to Weather Station using ESP12E NodeMCU. In this project, we will measure Humidity, Temperature and Pressure parameters and…

Have you ever thought of getting your device’s location without using any GPS hardware? Sounds interesting!! Yes it is possible to get the location coordinates just using NodeMCU ESP board without any extra hardware. Here we will use ESP12E board to get live co-ordinates of our location. This becomes possible because of Google’s Geolocation API. So let’s see how this…

Mouser Electronics is now stocking the Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 (Intel NCS 2), the next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) inference development platform for creating smarter algorithms and prototyping computer vision products for the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing devices. Featuring enhanced hardware processing capabilities, the Intel NCS 2…

Home Automation has always been inspiring projects for most of us. Toggling an AC load from the comfort of our chairs or bed of any room without reaching for the switch in another room sounds cool doesn’t it!!. And now in the era of IoT, thanks to the ESP8266 module which made it easy to control anything from anywhere in the world.

In this…

Toshiba released the TC78H653FTG dual-H-bridge driver IC for DC brushed motors and stepper motors that delivers the low voltage (1.8V) and high current (4.0A) essential for low voltage equipment powered by dry-cell batteries, such as mobile devices, electronic products for the home and USB drives.

 

With the growing…

Mouser Electronics announces the newest issue of its Methods technology and solutions e-zine focusing Smarter Edge Computing for IoT. The third issue of volume two examines the evolution of traditional edge devices to smarter edge devices that are capable of processing and decision making — tasks that are currently done in the cloud.
