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.

Introducing cloud-based data science


In data science, we talk about regression, classification, and prediction. This type of computing needs huge resources to perform data science tasks.

Data science-based cloud is one solution to address resource issues. You can optimize resources to perform classification and prediction. A high availability feature is usually offered by cloud providers.

Companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, and Google have already implemented data science servers. We can use R or Python to write programs for data science. They will take care of pre- and post-processing on our sensor data.

An example of a cloud-based machine-learning dashboard can be seen in the following screenshot. This is a Microsoft Azure machine-learning dashboard:
