Hands-On Edge Analytics with Azure IoT

Writing the edge code

For this step, we will use an external library to read temperature data from a DHT11 temperature sensor. We will then write four of our own classes and upload the code to the LoPy/LoPy 4 microcontroller. The following are required for this step:

• Pycom LoPy/LoPy 4 microcontroller
• DHT11 temperature sensor
• FTDI adapter or Pycom expansion board
• Antenna pig tail and antenna
• Breadboard and jumpers
• Atom IDE with Pycom package
• USB cable

We will start by connecting the temperature sensor before creating the files for the edge device.
