@JoeKarlsson1 Before we get started… @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Thank you for coming! @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Moodlite @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 How is this going to work? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 A Quick Audience Poll @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 IoT? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 JS? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Agenda • Intro to IoT • IoT data cycle
• Why JS and IoT? • IoT data best practices • IoT Demo • The future of IoT @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 What the heck is IoT? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 A network of devices that have an IP address
and can communicate with each other over the internet @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 It’s just the internet, but with “things” on it
@JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 …so what is a “thing?” @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Smart Home Home Security Smart Appliances Smart Light Bulbs
Smart Outlets Nest Thermostat @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Automated Manufacturing Humidity Sensor Motion Sensor Remote Monitoring Smart
Delivery Temperature Sensor @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Wearables Smart Water Bottle Fitbit Breathing Sensor Smart Running
Shoes Lumo Run Shorts @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 IoT  Lifecycle Collect Communicate Analyze Act @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 A company is an association or collection of individuals,
whether natural persons, legal persons, or a mixture of both. Company members share a common purpose and unite in order to focus their various talents and organize their collectively available skills or resources to achieve specific, declared goals. Collect Devices and sensors collect data @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Why does IoT Matter? Source: https://www.statista.com/statistics/471264/iot-number-of-connected-devices-worldwide/

@JoeKarlsson1 IoT + JS(?!) @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 JS is a great choice for new devs Other
low level programming languages can be difficult to develop @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Why Node? 58 percent of respondents that identified as
IoT developers use Node Source: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/announcements/nodejs-foundation-survey/ @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Easy to update over a network @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 The internet already speaks JS @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Tons of existing libraries, plugins and APIs @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Cylon.js Johnny-Five https://cylonjs.com/ http://johnny-five.io/ @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 JS is great at handling event-driven apps @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 It got dark in here @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Can you turn yourself on? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 I turned myself on @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Events reduce the cost of listening for the device
@JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 But what do we do with all that data?
@JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 I’m totally biased, but… @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 MongoDB is a great choice @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 • Capable of high speed data ingest • An
event driven DB • Makes it easy to update your schema • Great at handling time series data @JoeKarlsson1 MongoDB is:

@JoeKarlsson1 Let’s jump into something *practical @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 OK, so it’s still a WIP, but let’s talk
about it @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 General Purpose Input/Output Pins [GPIO] Can be used to
interact in with the real world @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Output Pins Switches that the Raspberry Pi can turn
on or off @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 @JoeKarlsson1 Code: https://github.com/JoeKarlsson/iot-kitty-litter-box

@JoeKarlsson1 @JoeKarlsson1 The first step of any IoT project is
to make an LED blink

@JoeKarlsson1 var five = require("johnny-five"); var Raspi = require("raspi-io").RaspiIO; var
board = new five.Board({ io: new Raspi() }); board.on("ready", function() { var led = new five.Led("P1-13"); led.blink(); });

@JoeKarlsson1 Alright, let’s make a toilet @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 • When box is opened, go into maintenance mode. 
• When the box is closed, recalibrate weight.  • When significant weight is sensed, take weight measurement of cat and send data to MongoDB Atlas. @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 const { RaspiIO } = require('raspi-io'); const five =
require(‘johnny-five'); const board = new five.Board({ io: new RaspiIO(), }); let state = { isMaintenenceMode: false, }; board.on('ready', () => { const spdt = new five.Switch('GPIO16'); spdt.on('open', () => { state.isMaintenenceMode = true; }); spdt.on('close', () => { state.isMaintenenceMode = false; }); });

@JoeKarlsson1 The load cells… @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Couldn’t find support for my load cells with Johnny-Five,
so I had to get creative. @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 import time import sys import RPi.GPIO as GPIO from
hx711 import HX711 while True: try: except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit): cleanAndExit() hx = HX711(5, 6) hx.set_reading_format("MSB", "MSB") hx.set_reference_unit(1) hx.reset() hx.tare() def cleanAndExit(): print("Cleaning...") GPIO.cleanup() print("Bye!") sys.exit() val = hx.get_weight(5) print(val) hx.power_down() hx.power_up() time.sleep(0.1) loadCell.py

@JoeKarlsson1 const spawn = require('child_process').spawn; const process = spawn('python', ['./hx711py/scale.py'],
{ detached: true }); // Takes stdout data from script which executed // with arguments and send this data to res object process.stdout.on('data', data => { let currWeight = parseFloat(data); let avgWeight = updateAverageWeight(currWeight, recentsWeights); }); process.stderr.on('data', err => { console.error(err); }); process.on('close', (code) => { console.log(`child process exited with code ${code}`); });

@JoeKarlsson1 process.stdout.on('data', data => { let currWeight = parseFloat(data); let
avgWeight = updateAverageWeight(currWeight, recentsWeights); }); const checkIfCatIsPresent = (avgWeight, baseBoxWeight) => { if (avgWeight - bufferWeight > baseBoxWeight + config.cat.weight) { return true; } return false; }; const updateAverageWeight = (currWeight, recentsWeights) => { if (currWeight) { const maxArrLength = 20; if (recentsWeights.length >= maxArrLength) { recentsWeights.shift(); } recentsWeights.push(currWeight); return getAvg(recentsWeights); } }; const getAvg = arr => { if (arr.length) { const sum = arr.reduce(function(a, b) { return a + b; }, 0); const avg = sum / arr.length; return avg; } return arr[0]; }; const catPresent = checkIfCatIsPresent(avgWeight, baseBoxWeight); if (catPresent) { // Send data to MongoDB }

JS with a smaller footprint Batteries will become the bottleneck The Future of JS + IoT? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Do you want to be an IoT and JS
master? @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 Just do it! @JoeKarlsson1

@JoeKarlsson1 IoT is exploding Raspberry Pi’s use GPIO to interact
with the real world JS is a great choice for IoT Easy to update apps Internet already speaks JS Great supporting libraries JS excels at event-driven apps Start with a small project and jump in and learn as you go! MongoDB is a great choice for IoT projects
