Prepare a conceptual design and realize a working prototype of an ambient object that presents online data in a physical space.
Hello, please provide any feedback as you want.
Remake a paired device. You’ll practice developing paired devices and networked interactions with Particle.publish, Particle.subscribe and webhooks!
Remake Google's Paper Signals: This practice exercise will invite you to create an interesting notification using either a solenoid, a servo, a brushless fan or vibrating disk. You’ll get familiar...more
Remake the Ambient Orb in this his practice exercise. You're asked to create an ambient calendar alert using a neopixel strip. By the end of the project, you’ll have connected your Particle device ...more
Prepare a simple 2-in (sensors or inputs) 1-out (LED) device (i.e. your project will use three components (resistors and wire don't count!) and at least one must be a sensor). Present a really sim...more
Remake a basic smart light bulb with this exercise: create a basic LED circuit, link it to online connectivity and control it from anywhere!
Reflecting on the topics, readings, and projects introduced by this course, work collaboratively to revisit, rebuild and reinterpret a working prototype of an influential IoT experience. The fin...more
