Description

Use Raspberry Pi and Windows 10 to build a home automation system that can operate home devices automatically.

Today, technology is enhancing human life. Technology is evolving in a very fast manner. Automation was an idea and a dream but not today. By combining the latest technologies with Home Devices, Everyone can build A Fully Automated Home. With the Raspberry Pi and Windows 10 IoT, we can build a home automation system that is capable of handling and operating any of your home devices automatically.

In this course, an Arduino UNO will be used to control different devices and read different sensor data. Raspberry Pi will send requests for Arduino UNO to get the sensor data collected.

Each room can have multiple controllable devices (Light, Fan, Wall Socket), PIR Sensor, temperature sensor, and LDR. We will explain how to connect everything and how to code each part in a step-by-step manner.

Why we are using Windows 10 IoT Core:

• Built for small, secure, smart devices: The smallest Windows 10 operating system still has the manageability and security expected from Windows.

• Smart: Easily bring Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to the edge with Windows.

• Secure: Help keep devices secure for the long term.

• Fast: Quickly get IoT devices to market and maintain for the long term with out-of-the-box OS.

What about Communication Protocols?

• I²C (pronounced I-squared-C): Allows communication of data between I2C devices over two wires, making it easier for anyone to exchange information without too much wiring.

• I2C Communication between Arduino and Raspberry Pi: A step-by-step guide to Master I2C Protocol and Start using it to connect your Arduino and Raspberry Pi.

In today's world, every electronics hobbyist works with Arduino and Raspberry Pi to do their projects. With the introduction of Windows 10 IoT Core, Microsoft is also into the embedded world. Today Internet Of Things is a buzzword, but for basic things, we need an Arduino to communicate with a Raspberry Pi. In this course, I will explain how to communicate the Arduino with the Pi using an I2C bus and Windows 10 IoT Core.

I2C communications have become the de facto method of communicating between microcontrollers, microcomputers, and a variety of integrated circuits and sensors. It has been around since 1982 and was originally developed for use in television receivers.
