In Chapter 8, Displaying Information and Performing Actions, we worked with a digital temperature and humidity sensor combined with displays and a servo. Now, we want to take advantage of two cloud services to build a real time and interactive web-based dashboard that allows us to watch gauges with the following information in a web browser:
Ambient temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit (ºF)
Ambient temperature measured in degrees Celsius (ºC)
Ambient humidity level expressed in percentage (%)
First, we will take advantage of dweet.io
to publish the data retrieved from the sensors and make it available to different computers and devices all over the world. The dweet.io
data sharing utility allows us to easily publish data or messages and alerts from IoT devices and then use other devices to subscribe to this data. The dweet.io
data sharing utility defines itself as something similar to Twitter for social machines. You can read more about
