Creating a Raspberry Pi 5 alarm dashboard
Since its release in late 2023, the Raspberry Pi 5 has set a new standard for compact computing, enabling developers to build more efficient and powerful applications across various domains.
The Raspberry Pi 5 boasts an advanced processor that enhances our IoT alarm dashboard’s data processing speed and multitasking capabilities. Its robust software support and extensive Python support offer unparalleled programming flexibility, tailored to the IoT alarm system’s needs. Paired with the 7-inch touchscreen, our Raspberry Pi 5 provides us with a user-friendly and efficient interface for our system.
We will begin developing our IoT alarm dashboard by modifying the IoT alarm module code from Chapter 6 so that it publishes the location data on the IoTAlarm MQTT topic. This data will enable our dashboard to identify the geographic position of the IoT alarm module with precision once it’s armed and activated.
