Matthijs Kooijman

Matthijs Kooijman is an independent embedded software developer who is firmly connected with the maker movement through a local fab lab and his work on the Arduino project. Since his youth, Matthijs has been interested in making things; for example, he built his first television remote control before the age of 10 (using a piece of rope to pull on the volume slider, not a solution that he would choose today). Matthijs has a firm belief in the merits of open source software and enjoys contributing to the software that he uses—both by coding and helping out other users. His work experience is broad—ranging from Web development to Linux driver hacking, from tech support to various forms of wireless networking, but almost always related to open source software in some way.

Summary


In this chapter, you have put your Arduinos in control of your radio modules, and set up your very first wireless sensor network by wirelessly transmitting measured values to your coordinator node. By applying what you have learned, you can extend your network by adding more Arduinos with DHT sensors. You should even be able to add different kinds of sensors by adding a new packet type!

Now, reading your measurements in the serial console is nice, but not very convenient. In the next chapter, you will find out how to store all this collected data on your computer, or even directly in the cloud, and how to gain more insight by generating convenient graphs out of the data.
