OpenIoT & ELC Europe 2016

With the constant increase in computational power and capabilities that embedded processors are enjoying, it becomes more and more tempting to create own IoT devices, be it for fun or for profit, or, why not, both.

The process, though, can be daunting.

This tutorial aims at giving both a working methodology, for designing and planning own work, and a set of practical steps, toward the creation of a basic - working - device.

Such device can be seen as foundation for further customization and development.

The example will cover the high level architecture, with a progressive dive into practical aspects, like choosing HW/SW component, dealing with secure design and its implication for sensitive data.
