Book Description:
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of objects such as
physical things embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and
connectivity, enabling data exchange. ESP8266 is a low cost WiFi
microcontroller chip that has the ability to empower IoT and helps the
exchange of information among various connected objects. ESP8266
consists of networkable microcontroller modules, and with this low cost
chip, IoT is booming. This book will help deepen your knowledge of the
ESP8266 WiFi chip platform and get you building exciting projects.
Kick-starting with an introduction to the ESP8266 chip, we will
demonstrate how to build a simple LED using the ESP8266. You will then
learn how to read, send, and monitor data from the cloud. Next, you’ll
see how to control your devices remotely from anywhere in the world.
Furthermore, you’ll get to know how to use the ESP8266 to interact with
web services such as Twitter and Facebook. In order to make several
ESP8266s interact and exchange data without the need for human
intervention, you will be introduced to the concept of
machine-to-machine communication.
The latter part of the book focuses more on projects, including a
door lock controlled from the cloud, building a physical Bitcoin ticker,
and doing wireless gardening. You’ll learn how to build a cloud-based
ESP8266 home automation system and a cloud-controlled ESP8266 robot.
Finally, you’ll discover how to build your own cloud platform to control
ESP8266 devices.
With this book, you will be able to create and program Internet of Things projects using the ESP8266 WiFi chip.
