This is a first-generation Air Quality Egg (AQE) node (Wikipedia article) from WickedDevices in Ithaca, New York (no affiliation, although our mobile app does support it). Yes, it looks like holiday lights when operating. It changes color form purple, green, and other colors when it receives data. The AQE is an open-source hardware Internet of Things device. That means you can download the schematic and modify it yourself. Nowadays, most hardware prototyping (especially open-source) is done with the Arudino hardware prototyping system. There’s a special “Air Quality Egg” shield circuit board that holds the air quality sensors, but you can think of the Arudino as software. In the old days, electronics engineers would have to rewire stuff. But, in an Arudino, you “rewire” things by changing the software code in its microcontroller. The Arudino takes the output from the AQE shield bus and transmits it (via ethernet cable in this case).… Read the restIOT Internet toilet senses disease (and talks?)
We promised to return to Earth after our previous photo post discussing 3,000-year-old Chinese sunspot observations and catastrophic space weather. How else could we do this other than another important Asian trend that we missed: Internet-connected toilets. Don’t laugh, this isn’t a Google April Fools joke (although Google reportedly has installed an earlier non-IOT model of these “advanced” toilets by the same manufacturer, Toto of Japan, in their offices). IOT Internet toilets actually make a lot of sense. These Japanese units from Toto can automatically detect disease via blood glucose, blood pressure, and BMI sensors. They can transmit this health information via WiFi. As they say in startup world, this is obviously a billion dollar idea. All of this can then be integrated with something like Apple’s HealthKit. Thus, they can be integrated with the rest of iOS. So, in the not to distant future, your toilet should be able to talk to you via Apple Siri.… Read the restAsk Acculation: fight illegal mining with citizen science IoT crowdsourcing in Amazon rainforest?
Indiegogo campaign to stop illegal mining threatening the Amazon Rainforest We were spammed yesterday with a Twitter question from @DavidRabanus asking if we could add the ability to detect mercury vapor to our app. If so, we could submit it, as an entry in this Indiegogo contest to reduce mercury pollution from illegal gold mining in the Amazon Rainforest (activist hashtag: #ImproveArtisanalMining). (Update: David Rabanus wrote to strongly imply the tweet wasn’t spam.) We’re suckers for a good cause, however, so we’ll answer the question. The question of using Internet of Things technology to allow citizen-science, crowdsourced monitoring of pollution from activities like fracking and mining have repeatedly come up, so it’s worth a blog entry (especially after we previously suggested using fracking to prevent earthquakes.) It’s not clear whether they are looking for a technical, economic, or political solution. The project itself seems open ended — it could be a process, or it could be some sort of technology.… Read the restRecent Comments
