Overview of this book

Develop the skills essential for building Internet of Things solutions with this indispensable guide. In an era where industries heavily rely on IoT, this book will quickly familiarize you with its foundations, widespread use, implementation guided by best practices, and the crucial technologies that allow it to work effectively. Starting with the use of IoT in real-life scenarios, this book offers comprehensive insights into basic IoT hardware, protocols, and technologies. You’ll then learn about architecting and implementing solutions such as wireless sensor networks, cloud computing with AWS, and crucial security considerations. You’ll understand how these systems are operated and monitored over time and work with simple to complex, industry-grade systems, adhering to best practices. In later chapters, you’ll be apprised of future IoT trends and strategies to manage the risks and opportunities that come with them. You’ll also get to grips with a diverse set of tools, including hardware such as ESP32 and Raspberry Pi, and software such as Mosquitto and ChatGPT for generative AI capabilities. By the end of this IoT book, you’ll be able to independently build and design complex, industry-standard solutions fully aligned with best practices.

Mesh networking, RFID, and Bluetooth

Many protocols are yet to be mentioned as part of IoT. Here, we’ll highlight three more to add to your toolkit, with a special emphasis on RFID technologies, given their prevalence within open source and industrial communities.

RFID

RFID technologies are used to identify and track objects through radio waves, and in IoT, they are used to track a wide array of devices or sometimes people. There are two main types of RFID technologies: passive and active. Passive ones use tags that do not have power sources and instead depend on the power transmitted by the reader for them to send their data, while active systems use tags that have power sources and can transmit data over longer distances.

RFID technologies can identify and track objects without necessitating a direct line of sight, making them perfect to use within environments where objects are difficult to track, such as in manufacturing environments or within warehouses. They can...
