Abstract

Internet of Things is a concept that many physical devices can connect and share information. IoT development in mobile apps aimed to control connected devices. This paper describes the form of an application-led project by building a smart application system using the Lego Mindstorm kit. It decides on and simulates scenarios for the IoT solutions and the design and develop a proof-of-concept mobile and IoT application with emphasis on the technical implementations, architectural considerations, and interoperability. It demonstrates through graphical programming environment the configuring, implement and evaluation of distance sensor technologies in a mobile application.
