Interested in IoT dev? Want early access to the Arduino Explore IoT kit? Tell us more...

Where do we submit the ideas to?

I want to build an "On air" light for outside my door now that we're all working remotely. This is to inform the rest of the family if it's ok to come in or if I'm in a meeting or concentration time.
I'd like to sync it with calendars and VC apps in order to have it work automatically throughout the day so you don't even have to think about if it's there or not.
Also have a button on it outside the door that allows people to push it to send a notification to me that they need something when I have time.

I've got my ticket and definitely am not missing Cascadia!

I want to build a doorbell for the hard of hearing. With the tactile buttons i can replicate the doorbell function and even add a small camera for the person to see who's outside.Pushing the button will trigger smart lights to flicker on and off so the person knows someone's at the door and i can add messaging and video capabilities with Vonage SMS & Video and notify users via sms or through a push notification in a simple nativescript mobile app that someone's at the door. Extending this with the mobile app allows users to access their camera stream and in the near future add DVR function to an s3 bucket that can be pruned at any given time frequency. All this to be open source and ready for community contributions

I would like to build a PCA (Pedestrian Crossing Aide) for school children and pedestrians alike in my local community to aide in helping them cross roads safely to and from school and help reduce road accidents.

Got my tickets 😁 and not sure am gonna miss it at all.

I would like to build an Arduino based time-lapse device for take photos of the progress on construction sites, plants growing or simply a photos of the sunset.

And of course I will attend to the conference! :D

I've a french bulldog, Gizmo, whose snores can be heard a room away. I'd love to build a sleep monitor to attach to his collar to find out:

1. Whats the loudest he snores?
2. How often he wakes himself up from snoring...

Using a microphone sensor, send the sound intensity once it breaches a manually set minimum level to Heroku... have some managed learning to ask was he sleeping at Xpm? Ypm? Maybe it will be smart enough to catch the pattern.. Will have to switch out his collar a few times with batteries..

Then I will use this data to shame him into walking at least one more block.

Yep, I'd attend the conference and write a post about it :)

Ohh this is a specific kit...

3 Days ago some people (6 or 7) steal a car, (90 kilometers from my home town and where they used it) and use it to steal in 2 phone shops in a mall at 3 a.m.

ecijaldia.es/2020/08/roban-dos-tie...

It took them 5 minutes to achieve their goal, when the police arrived there was no one.

I think that IoT can help to by one side alert the owner of the car that it was stolen an by other side alert police and mall security about this kind of events, by using algorithms that take into account several characteristics from camera inputs like time of the day.

Also can record information about the own devices that the thieves carry with them that can help to identify them, I mean, for example, if the thieves have in their phone settings turned on to look for available wifi hotspots, maybe it could be posible to save info about their devices to identify unique devices, name of the hotspots that they are been in the past, etc.

I think that IoT could have a long run in the field of security.

I will create an automatic watering system for my garden at home.
I would love to attend the conference and submit a writeup for this.

Wow this is awesome, for me it would be a home automating tool.
I want to connect the arduino to read the electric/water meters and have a web-app to view where and how you can safe money by handling simple questions about specific peaks/times.

As for the course, is this an online course?
Will definitely write an article/series on my blog

I will build a device to improve the banking experience of the disable people. It could identify the disability in a person and adjust appropriately to provide the best banking experience. Customer service will stop treating people poorly cos they've a disability.

I will attend the conference and share a write up with the community.

An energy meter and remote control of an energy outlet. Here you have hardware design just for metering part with arduino and a SOC chip for energy metering rodin.uca.es/xmlui/bitstream/handl...

UPDATE: So excited I've got my ticket. Just removing dust of my old NO-IoT hardware while waiting for the date :)

Since most of our students are learning remotely.

A robot that kids can control through their Teams and Zoom online interfaces.

After training and testing designs, the first small robot could be shared and used to build the others. All remotely.

Then a competition.

How cool the proposal and the ideas!!!

My idea is to take advantage of the option of taking infrared signals from remote controls to be able to automate things in the house / office that are not automated, in this way to be able to control or automate everyday elements, such as a television, air conditioning, strips or LED lamps.
The air conditioner has the temperature sensor inside the air conditioner so to detect that the environment is cold it has to fill the entire environment with cold air and not only the area that imports important parts of the height of the environment, if we have one or more temperature sensors in the room at the heights that require their control, we could make the control of the air conditioning more effective. Something similar happens with televisions, many times we have the television turned on and we have to return to the environment to turn it off, having the option of a module where we load commands, we could from the cell phone or when it detects that there is nobody in the environment to turn off the television.
This is only with 2 application ideas, but it could be applied to anything with infrared and thus gradually automate our environment, without depending on the internet, in addition, sensors could be added according to the environment where the module will be, gas, smoke, light, distance as an alarm in the kitchen when there are children in the house, etc.
