IoT Prototype Built on PubNub and Tessel at MIT Media Lab

PubNub CEO Todd Greene and evangelist Dave Nugent conducted a hands-on workshop at the MIT Media Lab, invited by the Director of Computing, Michail Bletsas, to demonstrate how PubNub's platform can enhance Internet of Things (IoT) projects through features like Presence, PubNub Storage and Playback, and Access Manager. These tools help developers build reliable and low-latency IoT applications, as illustrated by partners such as Ford and Get Taxi. The workshop involved using Tessel, a microcontroller equipped with WiFi and capable of running JavaScript, enabling participants to create IoT prototypes that integrated seamlessly with PubNub. By the end of the session, participants had developed demo applications that utilized PubNub to control LEDs, servos, and temperature sensors, showcasing the platform's potential for innovative projects. The Media Lab, known for fostering the convergence of diverse research areas and pioneering technologies, provided an ideal setting for exploring the capabilities of PubNub's infrastructure.
