Smart Internet of Things Projects

By: Agus Kurniawan

Overview of this book

Internet of Things (IoT) is a groundbreaking technology that involves connecting numerous physical devices to the Internet and controlling them. Creating basic IoT projects is common, but imagine building smart IoT projects that can extract data from physical devices, thereby making decisions by themselves. Our book overcomes the challenge of analyzing data from physical devices and accomplishes all that your imagination can dream up by teaching you how to build smart IoT projects. Basic statistics and various applied algorithms in data science and machine learning are introduced to accelerate your knowledge of how to integrate a decision system into a physical device. This book contains IoT projects such as building a smart temperature controller, creating your own vision machine project, building an autonomous mobile robot car, controlling IoT projects through voice commands, building IoT applications utilizing cloud technology and data science, and many more. We will also leverage a small yet powerful IoT chip, Raspberry Pi with Arduino, in order to integrate a smart decision-making system in the IoT projects.

Deploying OpenCV on Raspberry Pi


In this section, we will deploy the OpenCV library on Raspberry Pi. I use Raspbian Jessie for testing. We're going to install OpenCV from source code in Raspberry Pi board.ss

Let's start to build the OpenCV library from source code on Raspberry Pi. Firstly, we install development libraries. Type these commands on the Raspberry Pi terminal:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential git cmake pkg-config libgtk2.0-dev
$ sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev python3-dev

We also need to install the required matrix, image and video libraries. You can type these commands:

$ sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev libtiff5-dev libjasper-dev libpng12-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libv4l-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libxvidcore-dev libx264-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev gfortran

The next step is to download the OpenCV source code via Git. You can type these commands:

$ mkdir opencv
$ cd opencv
$ git clone...
