Windows 10 IoT with Raspberry PI is one of Microsoft’s visions of IoT in Windows world. IoT is not only for big industries and manufacturers – it’s also for you if you have ideas what to automate or improve at home or your work place.
This presentation focuses on real-life IoT system that supports brewing eisbock beer. Sample device is built on Raspberry PI and Windows 10 IoT. It includes also temperature sensors to measure beer and ambient temperature. There is Windows 10 Universal Application that allows to control the process and read metrics from Raspberry PI. Data from Raspberry PI will be later visualized using charts. The presentation goes through all steps of building such solution.
