[Mobile+Web DevCon] Prototyping Internet of Things with JavaScript and PubNub

In the era of Internet of Things, connecting things to the mobile devices and web is becoming ubiquitous. You can control room light using your mobile phone. You can monitor your heart rate and weight on browser. Front-end developers like you already have skills to prototype software ideas, so why not prototyping the Internet of Everything?

- Arduino
- Johnny-Five JS robotics framework

25. @girlie_mac Blinking LED var five = require('johnny-five'); var board = new five.Board(); board.on('ready', function() { var led = new five.Led(13); // Create an instance led.blink(500); // "blink" in 500ms on-off intervals }); Pin number
26. @girlie_mac Prototyping Smart Stuff
27. @girlie_mac Internet of Things Bluetooth ………
28. @girlie_mac Internet of Things w/ Data Stream Send & Receive Data to/from Data Center via Internet real-time!
29. @girlie_mac Streaming Data?
30. @girlie_mac vs. Streaming Media Listening/watching “real-time” • Music • Videos • Live webcasts There is no file to download, just a continuous stream of data!
31. @girlie_mac Streaming Data w/ PubNub No media, just data! • Small data (no buffering!) • Publishing/Subscribing in true realtime (low latency!) • Broadcast, unicast, multiplex
32. @girlie_mac CDN vs. DSN Content Delivery & Data Stream Networks are similar: • Deliver contents (or data) to a user based on the geographic locations • Copy contents (or data) to network at diff locations • Provide protection for large traffic surges Difference: Static contents vs. realtime data (“Data in Motion”)
33. @girlie_mac PubNub Data Stream Network (DSN)
34. @girlie_mac Realtime Interactivity of Today Two-way communication to/from every device in the world! Request/Response (REST) Data Streams
35. @girlie_mac PubNub Use-Cases ◼ Chat ◼ Multi-player games ◼ Vehicle location tracking ◼ Financial data ◼ Collaborative apps ◼ IoT, Home automation
36. @girlie_mac PubNub Use-Cases: Who uses? ◼ Chat (Periscope) ◼ Multi-player games (DeNA, PocketGems) ◼ Vehicle location tracking (Lyft, GetTaxi) ◼ Financial data (TD Ameritrade, SAP) ◼ Collaborative dev tools (Balsamiq, CodePen) ◼ IoT, Home automation (Insteon, Logitech)
37. @girlie_mac These hearts too! The messages are sent/received via yours truly, PubNub! Presence (= How many users online now?)
38. @girlie_mac
39. @girlie_mac Streaming Data between Devices Data streaming among devices w/ PubNub
40. @girlie_mac Using the Same Circuit
41. @girlie_mac Sending Data from browser var pubnub = PUBNUB.init({ subscribe_key: 'sub-c-...', publish_key: 'pub-c-...' }); function lightOn() { pubnub.publish({ channel: 'led', message: {blink: true}, callback: function(m) {console.log(m);}, error: function(err) {console.log(err);} }); } document.querySelector('button') .addEventListener('click', lightOn); button click <script src="http://cdn.pubnub. com/pubnub-3.7.15.min.js"></script>
42. @girlie_mac Receiving Data to MCU var pubnub = require('pubnub').init({ subscribe_key: 'sub-c-...', publish_key: 'pub-c-...' }); pubnub.subscribe({ channel: 'led', callback: function(m) { if(m.blink) { // blink LED w/ Johnny-Five } } }); led.pulse();
43. @girlie_mac Demo Try control my Arduino from your browser: http://codepen.io/girliemac/pen/jqeqje
44. @girlie_mac Prototyping Hue-clone w/ RGB LED Common cathode LED R G B GND
45. @girlie_mac
46. @girlie_mac Prototyping Hue-clone w/ RGB LED {'red':215, 'green':50, 'blue':255} publish data subscribe data Software UI Physical Output
47. @girlie_mac Sending Data from browser redInput.addEventListener('change', function(e){ publishUpdate({color: 'red', brightness: +this.value}); }, false); function publishUpdate(data) { pubnub.publish({ channel: 'hue', message: data }); } Send the red value to PubNub to tell the MCU to reflect the change! the value has changed! Publish the new value!
48. @girlie_mac Receiving Data to LED pubnub.subscribe({ channel: 'hue', callback: function(m) { if(led) { r = (m.color === 'red') ? m.brightness : r; g = (m.color === 'green') ? m.brightness : g; b = (m.color === 'blue') ? m.brightness : b; led.color({red: r, blue: b, green: g}); } } }); to the GPIO pins that connect to LED anodes
49. @girlie_mac KittyCam
50. @girlie_mac
51. @girlie_mac KittyCam in Node.js 1. Detect motion (Johnny-Five IR.Motion obj) 2. Take photos (Raspistill, command line tool) 3. Cat facial detection (KittyDar) 4. Store the photos in Cloudinary 5. Publish the data to PubNub 6. Stream on web (subscribe the data from PubNub)
52. @girlie_mac PIR Sensor
53. @girlie_mac PIR Sensor > Run Camera board.on('ready', function() { // Create a new `motion` hardware instance. var motion = new five.Motion(7); //a PIR is wired on pin 7 (GPIO 4) // 'calibrated' occurs once at the beginning of a session motion.on('calibrated', function() {console.log('calibrated');}); motion.on('motionstart', function() { // Motion detected // Run raspistill command to take a photo with the camera module var filename = 'photo/image_'+i+'.jpg'; var args = ['-w', '320', '-h', '240', '-o', filename, '-t', '1']; var spawn = child_process.spawn('raspistill', args); ... motion detected! Take a photo!
54. @girlie_mac Processing Photo ... spawn.on('exit', function(code) { if((/jpg$/).test(filename)) { var imgPath = __dirname + '/' + filename; // Child process: read the file and detect cats with KittyDar var args = [imgPath]; var fork = child_process.fork(__dirname+'/detectCatsFromPhoto.js'); fork.send(args); // the child process is completed fork.on('message', function(base64) { if(base64) { // Send to cloud storage } }); ... var kittydar = require ('kittydar'); a cat detected!
