Controlling the Internet of Things with the Web

The Internet of Things has a wide range of protocols and standards for communicating with smart products and devices. This fragmentation makes it hard to interoperate with other appliances and means developers and companies have to have expertise in many different technologies. It would be much simpler if all of these devices used Web standards.

On 15th July I was fortunate to be able to talk about this subject at FullStack Conference in London. In this talk I demonstrated how you can use the Web to interact with IoT appliances using the EVRYTHNG platform, REST and Node.js. You can watch the video here (please note you will have to sign up with Skills Matter to be able to view the talk):
