IoT WORKSHOP

INTRODUCTION

The internet of things (IoT) is the internetworking of

physical devices, vehicles (also referred to as
"connected devices" and "smart devices"), buildings
and other itemsembedded with electronics, software,
sensors, actuators, and network connectivity that
enable these objects to collect and exchange data.
Introduction to Arduino
Arduino is an open-source project that created microcontroller-based kits for
building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control
physical devices.

These systems provide sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that
can interface to various expansion boards (termed shields) and other
circuits. The boards feature serial communication interfaces, including
Universal Serial Bus (USB) on some models, for loading programs from
personal computers.

The first Arduino was introduced in 2005, aiming to provide a low cost, easy
way for novices and professionals to create devices that interact with their
What is the Arduino?
 Our First Program

1.Download & install the Arduino environment (IDE)

2.Connect the board to your computer via the USB cable
3.Launch the Arduino IDE
4.Select your board and your serial port
5. Goto FILE->EXAMPLES->BASICS->BLINK
6.Upload the program
TERMINOLOGY
Basic Functions

pinMode(pin, mode)
->Sets pin to either INPUT or OUTPUT
digitalRead(pin)
->Reads HIGH or LOW from a pin
digitalWrite(pin, value)
->Writes HIGH or LOW to a pin
Interfacing with
Sensors
LDR

A photoresistor (or light-dependent resistor, LDR, or photocell) is a light-controlled

variable resistor.

The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increasing incident light intensity; in

other words, it exhibits photoconductivity.
LDR INTERFACING
Temperature Sensor LM35

The LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit temperature devices with an output
voltage linearly-proportional to the Centigrade temperature.

The LM35 device has an advantage over linear temperature sensors calibrated in
Kelvin, as the user is not required to subtract a large constant voltage from the
output to obtain convenient Centigrade scaling.
Interfacing with Temperature Sensor
Blynk

Blynk was designed for the Internet of Things. It can control hardware remotely, it can display sensor
data, it can store data, vizualize it and do many other cool things.
There are three major components in the platform:
Blynk App - allows to you create amazing interfaces for your projects using various widgets we
provide.
Blynk Server - responsible for all the communications between the smartphone and hardware.
You can use our Blynk Cloud or run your private Blynk server locally. Its open-source, could
easily handle thousands of devices and can even be launched on a Raspberry Pi.
Blynk Libraries - for all the popular hardware platforms - enable communication with the server
and process all the incoming and outcoming commands.
Blynk example without ethernet shield
1.OpenOpen Arduino Serial USB example and change Auth Token
// You could use a spare Hardware Serial on boards that have it (like Mega)
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial DebugSerial(2, 3); // RX, TX

#define BLYNK_PRINT DebugSerial

#include <BlynkSimpleStream.h>

// You should get Auth Token in the Blynk App.

// Go to the Project Settings (nut icon).
char auth[] = "YourAuthToken";

void setup()
{
// Debug console
DebugSerial.begin(9600);

// Blynk will work through Serial

Serial.begin(9600);
Blynk.begin(auth, Serial);
}

void loop()
{
Blynk.run();
}

2.Run the script which is usually located in /scripts folder:

Windows:My Documents\Arduino\libraries\Blynk\scripts
Mac User$/Documents/Arduino/libraries/Blynk/scripts
On Windows:
Open cmd.exe
Write your path to blynk-ser.bat folder. For example:
cd C:\blynk-library-0.3.1\blynk-library-0.3.1\scripts
Run blynk-ser.bat file. For example : blynk-ser.bat -c COM4 (where COM4 is port with your Arduino)
And press Enter, press Enter and press Enter
NODEMCU AN IOT BREAKTHROUGH

NodeMCU is an open source IoT platform. It includes firmware which runs on

the ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC from Espressif Systems, and hardware[6] which is
based on the ESP-12 module. The term "NodeMCU" by default refers to the
firmware rather than the dev kits. The firmware uses the Lua scripting
language. It is based on the eLua project, and built on the Espressif Non-OS
SDK for ESP8266. It uses many open source projects, such as lua-cjson,and
spiffs.
An advanced NODEMCU example
Syntax

wifi.setmode(mode)

Parameters

mode value should be one of

wifi.STATION for when the device is connected to a WiFi router. This is often done to give the device access to the Internet.

wifi.SOFTAP for when the device is acting only as an access point. This will allow you to see the device in the list of WiFi networks
(unless you hide the SSID, of course). In this mode your computer can connect to the device, creating a local area network. Unless
you change the value, the NodeMCU device will be given a local IP address of 192.168.4.1 and assign your computer the next
available IP address, such as 192.168.4.2.

wifi.STATIONAP is the combination of wifi.STATION and wifi.SOFTAP. It allows you to create a local WiFi connection and
connect to another WiFi router.
Code

print("ESP8266 Server")
wifi.setmode(wifi.STATIONAP);
wifi.ap.config({ssid="test",pwd="12345678"});
print("Server IP Address:",wifi.ap.getip())

-- 30s timeout for an inactive client

srv = net.createServer(net.UDP, 30)
-- server listens on 5000, if data received, print data to console

A demo of MOTION DETECTION
using PYTHON,OPENCV AND
ARDUINO.
Objectives

To reduce the power consumption and save electricity by a

measurable amount.

Take a step forward towards living in a green world.

To automate the system with a minimum user interaction.

Extend the functionality of CCTV's/camera's by making it smarter and

hence reducing the cost of implementing the new system.
MOTION
DETECTION
Initial 100 frames are
used for background
modelling.

It removes fast changing

motion and also
eliminates the effects
produced by variable
lighting conditions
and noise.

The lights are kept OFF

MOTION
DETECTION
As soon as it detects any
motion , it draws a
rectangle around it
due to the contours
formed.

The Room Status is

changed to occupied.

The lights are Turned

ON.
ALGORITHM

1. Start

2. Initialize the camera.

3. Perform the Background Modelling using running average technique.

4. Capture the current frame.

5. Convert it to GrayScale and apply Gaussian Blur.

6. Apply threshold,find out the contours and set the Room Status.
SEND DATA USING SERIAL
COMMUNICATION

Import serial #library for serial communication(PySerial)

ser = serial.Serial('COM7', 9600, timeout=0.1) #establish a connection

if text == "Occupied":

ser.write("1") #send data to turn on light(High)

else:

ser.write("0") #send data to turn off light(Low)
