Summary

In a project that evolved from a previous prototype using Couchbase on an Intel IoT Gateway, the author developed a summer project leveraging Raspberry Pi 3 devices to track office staff movement using iBeacons. The project involved installing a Java application on Raspberry Pi units equipped with wireless and Bluetooth capabilities to monitor and sync beacon data with a remote server. Unlike the earlier version, the new setup creates a separate document for each activity, enhancing data management efficiency by eliminating the need for data retrieval from Couchbase Server. The dashboard for visualizing the collected data was built using Node.js and AngularJS, with data aggregation performed through N1QL queries. The project's complete source code, including both the dashboard and Raspberry Pi application, is available on GitHub.
