3. Agenda
• Internet of Things – What it is?
• Why Cloud?
• Azure IoT services
• Demo
• IoT Protocols Trend
• IoT Platforms
• Devices for IoT

7. Evolution of IoT
• Earlier IoT systems
• Expensive on installing and maintaining
• Difficult implementation (No standard protocols, services etc..)
• Why IoT is booming?
• Cheaper hardware (sensors, processor boards, RF devices etc..)
• More standardization on Hardware platforms
• M2M protocols and easy connectivity of Heterogeneous systems

9. Why Cloud for IoT?
Three parts of an IoT solution
1 Device connectivity & management
2 Analytics & operationalized insights
3
Presentation & business
connectivity
Easy to provision, use and manage
Pay as you go, scale as you need
Global reach, hyper scale
End to end security & privacy

20. IoT Protocols trend
• MQTT (http://mqtt.org/)
• Available in the industry for more than 10 Year
• Open standard by IBM and adopted by many org
• Extremely lightweight publish/subscribe messaging transport
• Support for Windows/WEC, .net Micro framework, Linux, Android, iOS,
• Broker (server)/ Client Mechanism
• https://m2mqtt.codeplex.com/ - .net code for MQTT

21. IoT Protocols trend
• Alljoyn (https://allseenalliance.org/)
• Open source framework for IoT
• Initiated by Qualcomm and now it is growing bigger (Maintained by Allseen
Alliance)
• SDKs available for Windows/WEC, Linux, Android, iOS,
• .net MicroFramework (Available soon)
• SDK types
• Standard SDK
• Thin client SDK – for resource constrained devices
• Microsoft adopting this as a service in Windows 10 (various versions)

30. Arduino
• What is Arduino?
• Arduino is an open-source electronics platform
• Based on easy-to-use hardware and software.
• It's intended for anyone making innovative projects.
• Boards, Off-The-Shelf Shields, IJW Software, Kits
• http://www.arduino.cc/
• Hardware
• Variety of Implementations
• All implement the same hardware interface (or superset), same physical pin locations
• Arduino (various) ARM ATmega328 etc MPU
• .NET MF: Netduino
• Intel Galileo (Runs Headless version of Win 8.1)
• 86Duino (x86 Like Galileo but support Windows Embedded Compact)

31. Arduino Boards
netduino plus 2 (.net MF)86Duino ZERO ( WEC2013) Intel Galileo ( Win 8.1)

32. • Headers on both sides of board will mount a shield plug
directly in
• Meant to be stackable
• IO Hardware physically implemented to plug into Arduino sockets
• Standard Drivers
• Same driver source will run shield on all variants of Arduino
• Sensors, Network, WiFi, Sensors, Actuators etc
• Shield List
• http://shieldlist.org/

33. Windows Remote Arduino

34. Windows Virtual Shield for Arduino

35. Connect The Dots
