Beginning Sensor Networks with Arduino and Raspberry Pi (Technology in Action)

Beginning Sensor Networks with Arduino and Raspberry Pi (Technology in Action)

<em>Beginning Sensor Networks with Arduino and Raspberry Pi </em>teaches you how to build sensor networks with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and XBee radio modules, and even shows you how to turn your Raspberry Pi into a MySQL database server to store your sensor data!<p> <p> First you'll learn about the different types of sensors and sensor networks, including how to build a simple XBee network. Then you'll walk through building an Arduino-based temperature sensor and data collector, followed by building a Raspberry Pi-based sensor node. <p> Next you'll learn different ways to store sensor data, including writing to an SD card, sending data to the cloud, and setting up a Raspberry Pi MySQL server to host your data. You even learn how to connect to and interact with a MySQL database server directly from an Arduino! Finally you'll learn how to put it all together by connecting your Arduino sensor node to your new Raspberry Pi database server.<p> <p> If you want to see how well Arduino and Raspberry Pi can get along, especially to create a sensor network, then <em>Beginning Sensor Networks with Arduino and Raspberry Pi</em> is just the book you need.
