Little Sense
LittleSense was designed for researchers and enthusiasts who want to quickly deploy bespoke sensor network applications. The project was intended to be a foundation on which specialist applications are built. Out of the box, LittleSense provided the following features:
- A local RaspberryPi (PI) based webserver
- which can be deployed to a PI using an automated script
- which will collect any data thrown at it via a serial port or the Web API
- which can visualise data via a web interface
- which can automatically create backups and clean log data
- which provides a web based serial interface for debugging
- Sensor device example code
- for Arduino boards, written in C
- for Adafruit boards, written in CircuitPython (a derivative of Micro-python)
As mentioned, sensor devices can communicate with LittleSense in several ways. Devices can interact with a RESTful API over WiFI, or a radio transceiver can be connected to a serial port to provide a gateway to any radio network.
