Synopsis
"The Internet of Things" is the new buzzphrase, but what is it? A toaster that texts? The fitness band on your wrist? The camera in an infant's room? Sure, it's all of those things -- and your cell phone, too! -- that sense your world and report back. The great thing is that it is actually not hard or expensive to make a sensing, communicating object yourself. Doing so can be rewarding, fun, and even useful. This book teaches the basics of building sensors and communicating objects through a series of practical, demonstrative, and fun activities.

From the Author
I love building things and learning along the way, and this book grew out of my attempt to make something every week for a year. It's a collection of 11 projects designed to introduce beginners to Arduinos, sensors and "internet of things" things. I tried to make it as accessible as possible, with step-by-step instructions intended for girls, boys, women and men who have never done anything like this before.
About the Author
John Keefe is the Senior Editor for Data News at public radio station WNYC in New York, leading a team that specializes in data reporting, investigations, visualizations and engagement projects that are both useful and playful. These range from hurricane-tracking maps to do-it-yourself kits to help predict a cicada emergence. Keefe previously led WNYC's news operation, developing its election coverage and breaking news capacity. He is an adjunct instructor in the Journalism + Design program at the New School, teaches workshops at the City University of New York journalism school and served as an Innovator in Residence at the West Virginia University Reed College of Media. He loves building useful, playful things for his family, himself and just for the fun of it -- often with friends who, together, call themselves Team Blinky. When he realized there just wasn't enough making in his life, he committed himself to making something new every week for a year. In the process, he managed to make a lot of new things, learning about electronics, sensors and coding in the process.
