Aim: - Prepare a list of features provided by python language for IoT

applications.
Theory: Features provided by python language for IoT applications
Python provides many useful features which make it popular and valuable from the other
programming languages. It supports object-oriented programming, procedural
programming approaches and provides dynamic memory allocation. We have listed below a
few essential features.

1. Easy to Learn and Use

Python is easy to learn as compared to other programming languages. Its syntax is
straightforward and much the same as the English language. There is no use of the
semicolon or curly-bracket, the indentation defines the code block. It is the recommended
programming language for beginners.

2.Expressive Language
Python can perform complex tasks using a few lines of code. A simple example, the hello
world program you simply type print("Hello World"). It will take only one line to execute,
while Java or C takes multiple lines.

3. Interpreted Language
Python is an interpreted language; it means the Python program is executed one line at a
time. The advantage of being interpreted language, it makes debugging easy and portable.

4. Cross-platform Language

Python can run equally on different platforms such as Windows, Linux, UNIX, and
Macintosh, etc. So, we can say that Python is a portable language. It enables programmers
to develop the software for several competing platforms by writing a program only once.

5. Free and Open Source

Python is freely available for everyone. It is freely available on its official
website www.python.org. It has a large community across the world that is dedicatedly
working towards make new python modules and functions. Anyone can contribute to the

9
Python community. The open-source means, "Anyone can download its source code
without paying any penny."

6. Object-Oriented Language
Python supports object-oriented language and concepts of classes and objects come into
existence. It supports inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation, etc. The object-
oriented procedure helps to programmer to write reusable code and develop applications
in less code.

7. Extensible
It implies that other languages such as C/C++ can be used to compile the code and thus it
can be used further in our Python code. It converts the program into byte code, and any
platform can use that byte code.

8. Large Standard Library

It provides a vast range of libraries for the various fields such as machine learning, web
developer, and also for the scripting. There are various machine learning libraries, such as
Tensor flow, Pandas, Numpy, Keras, and Pytorch, etc. Django, flask, pyramids are the
popular framework for Python web development.

9. Integrated
It can be easily integrated with languages like C, C++, and JAVA, etc. Python runs code line
by line like C,C++ Java. It makes easy to debug the code.

10.Embeddable
The code of the other programming language can use in the Python source code. We can
use Python source code in another programming language as well. It can embed other
language into our code.

11. Dynamic Memory Allocation

In Python, we don't need to specify the data-type of the variable. When we assign some
value to the variable, it automatically allocates the memory to the variable at run time.
Suppose we are assigned integer value 15 to x, then we don't need to write int x = 15. Just
write x = 15.

Aim:- Establish Connectivity between various components of IoT.

Theory:- IoT (Internet of Things) devices typically consist of various components such as
sensors, processors, communication modules, and actuators. These components need to be
connected and communicate with each other to enable the functioning of the IoT system.
Here are some ways to establish connectivity between the

various components of IoT:Wired connectivity: This is the most common way to

connect IoT devices, where wires or cables are used to transmit data between the devices.
Ethernet, USB, and Serial communication are some of the popular wired connectivity
methods used in IoT.

1. Wireless connectivity: This method involves using wireless technologies to establish

communication between IoT devices. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Lora WAN are
some of the popular wireless connectivity methods used in IoT.
2. Cloud connectivity: IoT devices can be connected to cloud platforms such as Amazon
Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud to enable remote monitoring, data
analysis, and control.
3. MQTT protocol: This protocol is commonly used in IoT to establish communication
between devices, especially in low-bandwidth and high-latency scenarios. It uses a
publish-subscribe messaging model where a central broker handles the
communication between devices.
4. CoAP protocol: This is a lightweight protocol designed for IoT devices that operate on
low-power and low-bandwidth networks. It is commonly used for communication
between sensors and actuators in IoT systems.

Overall, the choice of connectivity method depends on the specific requirements of

the IoT system and the available resources.

module, you can follow these general steps:

Choose a Bluetooth module: There are various types of Bluetooth modules available in
the market, such as HC-05, HC-06, and HM-10. Choose a module that suits your project
requirements.

1. Connect the Bluetooth module to the Arduino: Connect the TX pin of the
Bluetooth module to the RX pin of the Arduino and vice versa. You also need to
connect the GND and VCC pins of the Bluetooth module to the GND and 5V pins of
the Arduino, respectively.
2. Upload a program to the Arduino: You can use the Arduino IDE to upload a
program to the Arduino that can communicate with the Bluetooth module. You can
find sample codes and libraries for Bluetooth communication on the internet.
3. Test the connection: After uploading the program to the Arduino, you can test
the connection by pairing the Bluetooth module with a smartphone or a computer.
You can use a Bluetooth terminal app on your smartphone or a serial terminal app
on your computer to send and receive data from the Arduino.

Here's an example code that uses the SoftwareSerial library to communicate

with an HC-05 Bluetooth module connected to an Arduino:

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

SoftwareSerial bluetooth(2, 3); // RX, TX pins of the Bluetooth module

void setup() {

Serial.begin(9600);

bluetooth.begin(9600);

void loop() {
12
if (bluetooth.available()) {

char c = bluetooth.read();

Serial.print(c);

if (Serial.available()) {

char c = Serial.read();

bluetooth.print(c); }}

This code sets up a serial communication between the Arduino and the Bluetooth
module using pins 2 and 3 as the RX and TX pins, respectively. It reads data from the
Bluetooth module and prints it on the serial monitor of the Arduino, and vice versa.
Note that you need to pair the Bluetooth module with your smartphone or
computer before testing this code.

3. Install the necessary libraries: You will need to install the necessary libraries to
control the Wi-Fi module. This can be done through the Arduino IDE's library
manager.
4. Write the code: You will need to write code that can connect to your Wi-Fi network.
This will typically involve specifying the network's SSID and password.
5. Upload the code: Upload the code to your Arduino board using the Arduino IDE.

Here is an example code for connecting to a Wi-Fi network using an ESP8266 Wi-Fi
module:

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>

const char* ssid = "YourSSID";

const char* password = "YourPassword";

void setup() {

Serial.begin(9600);

delay(10);

WiFi.begin(ssid, password);

while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {

delay(500);

Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi...");

14
 }

Serial.println("Connected to WiFi network");

void loop() {

Note that this is just a basic example and you will need to modify it to fit your specific
requirements.
