I2C

Today, we’re going to implement a quick tool available on the RaspberryPi using Java Device IO API. The i2cdetect utility is a simple I²C device scanner for your RaspberryPi that browses all I²C addresses to find which I²C devices are connected to your board. This tutorial demonstrates how to recompile the Device IO API and implement the i2cdetect functionality in Java, providing a platform-independent way to interact with I²C devices. i2cdetect with the Java Device I/O API implementation - a powerful tool for hardware detection and diagnostics on embedded systems. ...

Recently, a colleague of mine asked me to implement a small demonstration project. I decided to develop a new component for the Rhiot project. This component is the DeviceIO I2C Camel component, which builds upon my previous work on Camel-pi4j that I had already developed for the Rhiot project. In this article, we’ll explore how to use this component within the Kura Platform via the Camel Framework. For this demonstration, we’ll need some hardware devices, specifically a RaspberryPi and an ActiveMQ broker. ...

One month ago, Henryk, Claus and I started the Camel Labs project. This project provides exciting new components for the IoT community based on Apache Camel technology. These components connect electronic devices (I2C, SPI, GPIO, Tinkerforge) and cloud services (PubNub, Cloudlet, MQTT) together. In this lab, we will demonstrate how to build an end-to-end IoT integration with I2C devices, an MQTT broker, and an I2C LCD display using just a few lines of code. ...
