Description
Internet of Things
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.
As the name implies, Wireless is the means of carrying the Monitor display of the IOT to a notebook computer.
It is headless because it doesn't have the physical hdmi connection to a monitor.
This allows the IOT such as a robot to move around freely while you could maintain the control of what is happening on the screen and keyboard.
At the moment, WiMon works with all models of the Raspberry Pi on Raspbian Stretch and Buster.
Different variants of WiMon shall be sold independently on other platforms such as Arch Linux and Ubuntu when they become GA in the future.
Design
The WiMon app and its dependencies are pre-installed and shipped on the 16GB micro SD memory card along with the Raspbian operating system.
You are able to update the OS at any time by executing the command line "sudo apt-get update"
This save you the hassle of installing the complex dependencies with various different settings and releases yourself, and get you up to speed on running WiMon in the background along with your application.
Wimon communicates WPA/WPA2 securely with the client device (such as a notebook) via the high power transmitter card with the 5dBi Omni antenna, so that you could use the built-in WiFi card of the motherboard for Internet connection.
