Basic local M2M interactions
In the first project of this chapter, we are going to learn how to make a very simple case of Machine-to-Machine interaction, by using two Arduino MKR1000 boards. To illustrate M2M communications, we are just going to make them talk via the local Wi-Fi network.
Getting ready
This project will be composed of two Arduino boards. One board will be connected to a simple push button, and the other one to a simple LED. The goal is that whenever the button is pressed, the first board will send the signal to the other board to light up the LED.
These are the components that we will need for this recipe:
- Arduino MKR1000 board x2 (https://www.adafruit.com/products/3156)
- Push button (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/97)
- 1K Ohmresistor (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13760)
- LED (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9590)
- 330Ohm resistor (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8377)
Let's now see how to assemble the board with the push button. The first step is to place the push...
