About the Author

Peter Waher is the cofounder of Clayster, a company with its origin in Scandinavia but now operates in four continents. Clayster is dedicated to the development of Internet of Things applications and provides an IoT platform for rapid application development. Currently, Peter lives and works in Chile where he is the CEO of Clayster Laboratorios Chile S.A., a subsidiary of Clayster that provides development expertise to partner companies and promotes the Internet of Things technology to research institutions. Originally a mathematician, commercial pilot, and computer games developer, he has worked for 20 years with computers and device communication, including low-level development in assembler for resource-constrained devices to high-level system design and architecture. He's currently participating in various standardization efforts within IEEE, UPnP, and XSF, working on designing standards for Internet of Things. His work on smart applications for Internet of Things and the development of the IP-TV application "Energy Saving through Smart Applications" won the Urban Living Labs global showcase award in the Cultural and Societal Participation and Collaboration Tools category.

Key Features

Design and implement state-of-the-art solutions for Internet of Things using different communication protocols, patterns, Windows 10, and Raspberry Pi 3Build complex projects using motions detection, controllers, sensors and Raspberry Pi 3A hands-on guide with complete source code, that provides interoperable solutions for sensors, actuators, controllers, cameras, and protocol brides

Book Description

The book will be divided into three major parts. The first part will present Internet of Things Fundamentals. It will introduce the concept of protocols and technologies used in Internet of Things, their strengths and weaknesses and preferred use. It will introduce the first two projects, describing how to create sensors and actuators, and what things needs to be considered. The second part will discuss applications in Internet of Things. It will focus on security and interoperability, introduce more advanced technologies and the concept of an Internet of Things application platform. It will discuss user interfaces, management topics, data persistence, end user integrity and security, privacy, decentralized networks, etc. The application platform will simplify and automate many of the tasks and concepts introduced in Part I. The third part will discuss mobile application development for secure interaction with things on the Internet. In this part, it will be clear how standards can be used to eliminate much of the concerns that had to be solved by each implementation traditionally.
