STEAM LAB with IoTSystem
The golden rule of the platform is: Connect and Control everything. And that is not an overstatement. Open source hardware allows the use of around 200 types of sensors available on the market and the configuration of a gateway from the platform to almost any device that works with electricity, enabling it to be controlled and monitored over the Internet. Whether you are using a Intel, Raspberry Pi, Beagleboard, Arduino or any other development board, you can now use CyberSchool to visualize data from them and to control them remotely.
to develop hardware, software and web services that teachers can use in the classroom to enrich their lessons with sensors and sensor data. -
the materials that DISTANCE is developing will help teachers and students to set up sensors, in the classroom or even around the school, visualise and analyse the data, and even integrate with online datasets such as weather patterns and traffic data.
The materials include lesson plans and worksheets, as well as data services and visualisation tools.
"The Internet of things is an opportunity to transform what goes on in the class room," Crellin told Information Age yesterday. "This will enable kids to get immediate access to data, in a way that is easy to use and understand."
the project has three main aims:
- the first is to develop a teaching curriculum around IoT.
- The second is to capture the imagination of school children to identify and develop innovative new applications of sensors and data.
- The third is to lay the foundations of a workforce with skills required to prosper in the IoT.
"The IoT is the next phase of the Internet, so this is about how they can participate in the next step of the digital economy," said Jones.
Crellin adds that a condition of the TSB funding is that the project seeks commercial applications. "Schools spend an enormous amount of money on technology, but we've got to investigate the models that they will be keen to engage with."
offer data gathering, data analysis and remote control, everything you need to reduce your costs and automate your processes or track whatever happens with your machines.
Integrable with any hardware
set of API’s covers besides standard http requests, real time communication protocols that are open ended for integration with third party API’s and hardware.
can have your customized and branded IoT platform without having to put the resources into developing it.
Unified dashboard
Visualizing all the data on a single customized dashboard. Easy exporting or filtering based on time intervals allows the user to make sense of its data.
Unified communication for M2M
Our set of API’s covers besides standard http requests, real time communication protocols that are open ended for integration with third party API’s and hardware.
Data gathering and analysis
The platform is able to gather the data and analyze it. Data analysis means: pattern extraction, prediction and ultimately translates to cost savings and increased efficiency.
Remote control of devices
Having a communication channel opened with the device it is easy to add remote control of certain features of devices besides data gathering.
Triggers
Ability to define rules based on data input to trigger actions, thus automating a feedback loop on one or multiple devices.*
