LINC Wireless Mobile Sensor Network by Techmor. UPDATE: Time has run out for the LINC Kickstarter, but you can check out the products at www.techmor.com Thanks to all our backers! LINC is an exciting new platform for multi-sensor measurements using mobile devices. With LINC it's simple and easy to create wireless and wired sensor networks.

It’s totally flexible! Use the LINC View mobile app to see the output of your sensor network in real-time then send the data to your friends and colleagues over the cloud! The open platform LINC communication protocol means developers can use LINC hardware to extend their Apps beyond the limits of a regular mobile device, and open up a new world of possibilities. HARDWARE - Modular and Expandable Every LINC sensor network starts with a LINC Bridge, the Bridge connects a Smart Sensor to your mobile device via Bluetooth. LINC Bridge A LINC Bridge is a self-contained unit with battery, wireless radios, and microprocessor. LINC Smart Sensors Software - VIEW, SHARE AND STORE DATA Motorsports & Automotive 1.

Nanode. Yaler - a simple, open and scalable relay infrastructure. Smartfield | Growing a Greener Future. Paraimpu - The Web of Things is more than Things in the Web. Internet of Things. Introduction - panStamp - Wireless Arduino-compatible miniatures. PanStamp is an open source project created for the enthusiasts that love measuring and controlling things wirelessly. panStamps are small wireless boards specially designed to fit in low-power applications, simple to program and simple to work with. With panStamps, you can measure almost everything by simply connecting your panStamp to the sensors, placing a battery and sending wireless data from the first moment. panStamps are suitable for any kind of project needing remote control and low-power wireless transmissions, including home automation, energy metering, weather monitoring and robot control. If you are one of these three things: a hobbyist, a professional or an end-user, you will find that panStamps provide extreme flexibility and power when creating custom wireless networks.

You can join the panStamp project in different ways: This project also wants to encourage people to share their work with the community. The Most Common XBee Mistakes. When it’s late at night and you just can’t get your ZigBee network working, more than likely a simple solution is waiting in the wings. Here are some tips for resolving issues typically encountered when working with XBee ZB (Series 2) radios and Arduino systems. Common XBee Mistakes If your project won’t work, check through this list of common mistakes that both beginners and experts make: XBee Arduino Mistakes Here are a few more mistakes commonly made during XBee projects that work with Arduino: Sending values continuously without any delay.

OpenMicros - List of cloud providers. Having 'things' on the Internet Of Things isn't much use if there's nowhere on the internet for the things to talk. Luckily, there are several providers that cater for this need. They all have their own way of doing things, and the range from free 'upload your readings here' for they hobbyist, up to fully managed machine to machine (M2M) solutions for even the largest of businesses. What provider is right for you depends on your needs, expectations and wallet. We've carried out some tentative research that might help to narrow down your choice. Where appropriate we will test providers using our own products running LLAP so we can offer you better unbiased support. If you use our products with a cloud provider, we would love to hear about your experiences, good or bad.

Example code available: No Sierra Wireless managed paid for M2M cloud provider Environmental Intelligence Everywhere. Dissolved Oxygen Sensor. Looking for a way to detect dissolved oxygen levels? If you raise fish, this and a ph sensor are two important things to monitor (and of course, temperature), and an Arduino is the ideal platform to build upon. The Sensorex DO1200 ($139) outputs a <1mv - 54 mv signal indicating DO levels. Use analogReference(INTERNAL1V1); //Mega & Mega 2560 or analogReference(INTERNAL); //328p based to set the top of the input range to 1.1v.

Connect it to one of your analog pins. So: //GND(black original cable) //A3(red original cable) int analogPin = 3; // sensor+ connected to analog pin 3 int val = 0; // variable to store the value read void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); // setup serial analogReference(INTERNAL1V1); //MEGA 2560 } void loop() { val = analogRead(analogPin); // read the input pin Serial.println(val); // debug value delay(500); }
