book will demonstrate how to design modern edge analytics apps that
take advantage of the processing power of modern single-board
computers and microcontrollers. Later, you'll explore Microsoft
Azure IoT Edge, MicroPython, and the OpenCV visual recognition
library. As you progress, you'll cover techniques for processing AI
functionalities from the server side to the sensory side of IoT.
You'll even get hands-on with designing a smart doorbell system
using the technologies you've learned. To remove vulnerabilities in
the overall edge analytics architecture, you'll discover ways to
overcome security and privacy challenges. Finally, you'll use tools
to audit and perform real-time monitoring of incoming data and
generate alerts for the infrastructure. By the end of this book,
you'll have learned how to use edge analytics programming
techniques and be able to implement automated analytical
computations. What you will learn Discover the key concepts and
architectures used with edge analytics Understand how to use
long-distance communication protocols for edge analytics Deploy

Leverage the full potential of IoT with the combination of
Raspberry Pi 3 and Python and architect a complete IoT system that
is the best fit for your organization Key Features Build complex
Python-based applications with IoT Explore different concepts,
technologies, and tradeoffs in the IoT architectural stack Delve
deep into each element of the IoT design-from sensors to the cloud
Book DescriptionThe Internet of Things (IoT) is the fastest growing
technology market. Industries are embracing IoT technologies to
improve operational expenses, product life, and people's
well-being. We'll begin our journey with an introduction to
Raspberry Pi and quickly jump right into Python programming. We'll
learn all concepts through multiple projects, and then reinforce
our learnings by creating an IoT robot car. We'll examine modern
sensor systems and focus on what their power and functionality can
bring to our system. We'll also gain insight into cloud and fog
architectures, including the OpenFog standards. The Learning Path
will conclude by discussing three forms of prevalent attacks and
ways to improve the security of our IoT infrastructure. By the end
of this Learning Path, we will have traversed the entire spectrum
of technologies needed to build a successful IoT system, and will
have the confidence to build, secure, and monitor our IoT
infrastructure. This Learning Path includes content from the

A practical project-based guide to help you build and control your
IoT projects Key Features Leverage the full potential of IoT with
the combination of Raspberry Pi 3 and Python Build complex
Python-based applications with IoT Work on various IoT projects and
understand the basics of electronics Book DescriptionThe Internet
of Things (IOT) has managed to attract the attention of researchers
and tech enthusiasts, since it powerfully combines classical
networks with instruments and devices. In Internet of Things
Programming Projects, we unleash the power of Raspberry Pi and
Python to create engaging projects. In the first part of the book,
you'll be introduced to the Raspberry Pi, learn how to set it up,
and then jump right into Python programming. Then, you'll dive into
real-world computing by creating a"Hello World" app using flash
LEDs. As you make your way through the chapters, you'll go back to
an age when analog needle meters ruled the world of data display.
You'll learn to retrieve weather data from a web service and
display it on an analog needle meter, and build a home security
system using the Raspberry Pi. The next project has a modern twist,
where we employ the Raspberry Pi to send a signal to a web service
that will send you a text when someone is at the door. In the final
project, you take what you've learned from the previous two
projects and create an IoT robot car that you can use to monitor
what your pets are up to when you are away. By the end of this
book, you will be well versed in almost every possible way to make
your IoT projects stand out. What you will learn Install and set up
a Raspberry Pi for IoT development Learn how to use a servo motor
as an analog needle meter to read data Build a home security
dashboard using an infrared motion detector Communicate with a web
service that sends you a message when the doorbell rings Receive
