EEWeb Tech Lab - IBM Watson IoT

Please enjoy this step by step demo showing how to use IBM Watson IoT and Node-RED to connect Raspberry Pis to control devices.

The Watson IoT platform gives developers access to a wide range of tools and capabilities, including intelligent analytics, enterprise-grade security, and device management.  Today we’re going to use Watson IoT with Node-RED and our Pis to send the sensor data back to Watson IoT, process it, and then trigger our dinosaur when certain criteria are met.The IoT is the convergence of the physical and digital worlds, with data being fed to the cloud from different devices for different purposes. The challenge for many developers lies in getting data from their device to a place that they can analyze and respond to this data. Experts in hardware design and firmware development, can quickly become lost trying to put together the different pieces of their cloud service: infrastructure, security, cognitive analytics, etc. IBM's Watson IoT Platform addresses this need, seamlessly connecting hardware to IBM servers around the globe.
