A Guide to SensorTag Hackathons: Resources Michael Setton Founder and CEO IoT Stars Jarle Boe Development Kit Manager Wireless Connectivity Solutions, Texas Instruments Overview We made the SimpleLink™ SensorTag kit with one simple goal: connect your product and receive sensor data from the cloud in three minutes. We wanted to make a development tool that encourages cool and crazy ideas for the Internet of Things (IoT) without having to deal with the complicated details that may restrict the most amazing concept before the first prototype is produced. The SensorTag kit was created to make life easier for all developers with creative ideas regardless of their technical background; software developers, hardware developers, system architects, big data analytics, etc. have all embraced the SensorTag kit to bring their product ideas to life. The SensorTag kit has already been used in a lot of Hackathons, and based on our collective experience from countless sleepless nights, we have assembled this list of resources for everything you need to create a hackathon of your own. From sample source code and 3D files for printing to tips on how to stay awake for 24 hours, we hope this guide can help you create the next exciting IoT device. And remember, help is always available on our TI E2E™ community forum (www.ti.com/e2e), and remember to tweet about your projects by using #SensorTag and tag us @TXInstruments! First step Getting started The first step is to connect the SensorTag directly (Do this step well ahead of the Hackathon) Order Now to a phone to access the sensor data through the Bluetooth® Smart interface. The app gives a direct link to the cloud interface to view the data in a web Buy the SimpleLink SensorTag kit: browser. https://store.ti.com/cc2650stk.aspx SensorTag Android™ app https://play.google.com/store/apps/ Resources details?id=com.ti.ble.sensortag Lean about the SimpleLink SensorTag kits (including SensorTag iOS app the User Guide) on the following TI pages: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ti-sensortag/ id552918064?mt=8 www.ti.com/sensortag www.ti.com/sensortag-wiki A Guide to SensorTag Hackathons: Resources 2 March 2016 IBM quick start cloud SensorTag and Javascript source code: https://quickstart.internetofthings.ibmcloud. https://github.com/evothings/evothings- com/#/ examples/tree/master/examples/ble-ti- Replace the # in the link with the MAC address of sensortag-cc2650-demo your SensorTag IBM cloud foundation recipe Using Bluetooth low energy with Windows® 8.1 https://developer.ibm.com/recipes/tutorials/ http://sviluppomobile.blogspot.fr/2014/02/ble- connect-a-cc2650-sensortag-to-the-iot- for-windows-81-part-i.html foundations-quickstart/ http://sviluppomobile.blogspot.fr/2014/06/blefor-developers-in-windows-81-part-ii.html Freeboard visualization http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/ http://freeboard.io/ app/best-ti-sensortag-ble/ec511d25-9a154b52-8749-e4a05befa4ed/m/ROW Mobile app code development For mobile developers, we have released the Writing Bluetooth Smart apps for Windows phones complete SensorTag app source (Android) and a http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/ sample code (iOS) that shows how to get started. windowsapps/Keep-The-Keys-Bluetooth-LE6d4e6d47 SensorTag software source for iOS https://git.ti.com/sensortag-ios-source-code- SensorTag with Windows Phone 8.1 example http://talkingaboutit.azurewebsites.net/post/ windows-phone-8-1-ble-communications- SensorTag source code for Android part-1 https://git.ti.com/sensortag-20-android http://talkingaboutit.azurewebsites.net/post/ windows-phone-8-1-ble-communications- Other source codes part-2 https://github.com/lnanek/BleActionLog Bluetooth low energy browser for multiple TI SensorTags: C# implementation for Windows 8.1 https://play.google.com/store/apps/ details?id=com.togosoft.sensortag2 Making a mobile app for SensorTag using Javascript An eBook by ilya Tepelboym http://evothings.com/quick-guide-to-making- Browser-Multple-SensorTags-ebook/dp/ a-mobile-app-for-the-ti-sensortag-using- B00NHXDJOQ http://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Energy- javascript/ A Guide to SensorTag Hackathons: Resources 3 March 2016 Host Test App (HCI) implementation for TI SensorTag Embedded firmware development In case you want to use an external MCU: the firmware.

Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment. TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily performed. TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide adequate design and operating safeguards. TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI. Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of any TI components in safety-critical applications. In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms. No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use. Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use. TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
