Boards and sensors are provided for use during the meetup are free of charge to all. But you must bring your own laptop.

We'll give a short initial introduction, and then the participants will dive into the tutorials, going at their own pace. You get a chance to work on a board, ask questions, and make progress right there.

First tutorial: Data Monitoring (15 - 30 minutes) - Connect the board to the Internet, monitor sensor data from the board in a pre-built dashboard. Then customize the dashboard with your own widgets and data. Publish to the Discussion section of Learn IoT Community site - https://codetricity.github.io/s5d9-hacking/monitoring/starting/

Second tutorial: Data Monitoring API (15 - 30 minutes) - Walk through the Data Monitoring API and connect it to IBM’s Watson Text to Speech functionality - http://learn.iotcommunity.io/t/using-speech-in-your-iot-projects/1368

Third tutorial: Data Intelligence (60+ minutes) - Toggle and blink LEDs using Renesas IoT Sandbox, send customized email reports automatically - https://codetricity.github.io/s5d9-hacking/intelligence/diagnostics/1 (https://codetricity.github.io/s5d9-hacking/intelligence/diagnostics/)
