Chapter 5. Solar Panel Voltage Logging with NearBus Cloud Connector and Xively

Do you want to synchronize your Arduino board memory with cloud memory? Then this is the solution for memory mapping between Arduino and cloud. The memory mapping is done by mirroring or replicating a small part of Arduino's memory into the cloud's memory. So, reading or writing on the cloud's memory will have the same effect as reading or writing directly into the Arduino's memory.

The objective of this project is to log the voltage values generated by a solar cell against the time.

In this chapter, you will learn:

  • About NearBus Cloud connector

  • How to wire a solar cell with Arduino, and the use of the voltage divider

  • How to install and use NearAgent with Arduino

  • How to configure Xively with Arduino Ethernet

  • How to combine NearBus with Xively

  • How to display real time voltage logging with Xively

  • How to write a simple HTML web page to display real time voltage logging that can be run on your mobile phone
