As a software developer who lives with his aging parents, I was worried about their well-being and wanted to ensure that they were safe and secure at all times. So, I created an IoT application that would help me monitor their activities in real time and alert me in case of any emergency.
I started by installing sensors in different parts of the house to monitor temperature, humidity, and sound levels. I then used Solace technology to build an IoT application that would use the data from these sensors to alert me in case of any abnormal activity. I connected the sensors to the Solace messaging platform, which would send messages to my smartphone whenever there was a change in the sensor data. For instance, when the temperature in the house dropped below a certain level, I received an alert on my phone, prompting me to check on my parents’ heating system.
