Internet of things is going to be a multi billion dollar industry and is taking the world of Information technology by storm. There are a million (and a little bit more) possibilities. I do want to be left out of the IOT storm as its going to be great leaning experience.
Here is my idea of IOT that I am working on, basically its a flying device (well inspired from other pioneers in Goa). But I do not have any cash lying around to go and buy heavy duty quad copters.
So the idea is
- Get a Raspberry pi board (need to buy)
- A camera module for Raspberry pi board (need to buy)
- A Android powered Phone (Already have)
- a Drone (this is the most important bit)
- I do not intend to buy a drone with camera as they are pretty expensive for me.
And get all the above bits and piece merged together to make a IOT device (home made I should say). I want to make sure the whole setup does not cross 6 - 7K.
Well thats it. As of now I am hunting for a good cheap board to start with. More details later!
