Description

The age of connected devices is here, be it fitness bands or smart homes. It's now more important than ever to understand how hardware components interact with the internet to collect and analyze user data. The Internet of Things (IoT), combined with the popular open source language Python, can be used to build powerful and intelligent IoT systems with intuitive interfaces. This book consists of three parts, with the first focusing on the "Internet" component of IoT. You'll get to grips with end-to-end IoT app development to control an LED over the internet, before learning how to build RESTful APIs, WebSocket APIs, and MQTT services in Python. The second part delves into the fundamentals behind electronics and GPIO interfacing. As you progress to the last part, you'll focus on the "Things" aspect of IoT, where you will learn how to connect and control a range of electronic sensors and actuators using Python. You'll also explore a variety of topics, such as motor control, ultrasonic sensors, and temperature measurement. Finally, you'll get up to speed with advanced IoT programming techniques in Python, integrate with IoT visualization and automation platforms, and build a comprehensive IoT project. By the end of this book, you'll be well-versed with IoT development and have the knowledge you need to build sophisticated IoT systems using Python.

Who is this book for?

This IoT Python book is for application developers, IoT professionals, or anyone interested in building IoT applications using the Python programming language. It will also be particularly helpful for mid to senior-level software engineers who are experienced in desktop, web, and mobile development, but have little to no experience of electronics, physical computing, and IoT.

What you will learn

Understand electronic interfacing with Raspberry Pi from scratch

Gain knowledge of building sensor and actuator electronic circuits

Structure your code in Python using Async IO, pub/sub models, and more

Automate real-world IoT projects using sensor and actuator integration

Integrate electronics with ThingSpeak and IFTTT to enable automation

Build and use RESTful APIs, WebSockets, and MQTT with sensors and actuators

Set up a Raspberry Pi and Python development environment for IoT projects

One of the things Python language does to any professionals that know it is to speedily crack security issues and that is what this book intends to do. This book is a must book for Python lover, IoT experts and software engineer. There are lots of things to learn from this book, for instance you will learn how you connect sensors and actuators to Raspberry Pi, and the reason one can accompany them with additional components such as resistors to create voltage dividers.

I've been programming in Python and designing electronic hardware for a long time, so I didn't expect to learn much from Practical Python Programming for IoT. Boy, was I wrong. Starting from the basics of Python programming and elementary electronic wiring (including easy-to-follow pictorial and schematic diagrams for those unfamiliar with prototyping breadboard use) the author covers all of the topics the hobbyist or beginning engineer would need to develop useful products, including message queueing, asynchronous I/O programming, web-based control, and even a solid "Electronics 101" section.There's very little to complain about; a few typos here and there but nothing that affects the overall utility of the book. The author's style is very readable and exercises are provided at the end of each chapter (if I were teaching a class in Python IOT development, I'd use this as my textbook). Even if you simply read throughPractical Python Programming for IoT rather than working through the examples physically, the author's notes and explanations make it a very worthwhile experience.
