Week 8 Final Year Project 2

Date: 14 March 2018

Time: 3.00 p.m

Place: Library


Objectives:

- To find the alternative way to display the real-time result when connected to the wifi instead of the Blynk application. 

Activities:

-  Today, I found the other application instead of Blynk application to display the real-time result when connect to the Wifi such as ThinkSpeak. This application is an open source Internet of Things application and API to store and retrieve data from things using the HTTP protocol over the Internet or via a Local Area Network. ThingSpeak enables the creation of sensor logging applications, location tracking applications, and a social network of things with status updates. It can Collect, Analyze and Act which has many applications to be use in ThinkSpeak. 

The application ThinkSpeak

- Send sensor data privately to the cloud.

There are sensors all around in homes, smart phones, automobiles, city infrastructure, and industrial equipment. Sensors detect and measure information on all sorts of things like temperature, humidity, and pressure. It communicate that data in some form, such as a numerical value or electrical signal.

 
Sensors, or things, sense data and typically act locally. ThingSpeak enables sensors, instruments, and websites to send data to the cloud where it is stored in either a private or a public channel. ThingSpeak stores data in private channels by default, but public channels can be used to share data with others. Once data is in a ThingSpeak channel, it can analyze and visualize it, calculate new data, or interact with social media, web services, and other devices.
