Chapter 24: Managing the IoT Box
Odoo provides support for the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT is a network of devices/sensors that exchange the data over the internet. By connecting such devices with a system, you can use them. For instance, by connecting a printer with Odoo, you can send PDF reports directly to the printer. Odoo uses a piece of hardware called the IoT Box, which is used to connect devices such as printers, calipers, payment devices, footswitches, and more. In this chapter, you will learn how to set up and configure the IoT Box. Here, we'll cover the following topics:
- Flashing the IoT Box image for Raspberry Pi
- Connecting the IoT Box with a network
- Adding the IoT Box to Odoo
- Loading drivers and listing connected devices ...
