This tutorial will guide you through the process of defining the digital representation of your physical asset (such
as a sensor) in the Altair IoT Studio platform, sending data to store it, and developing simple, real time dashboards.
User Functions provide the capability to execute custom business rules by writing code in the most popular languages, and automatically
deploying the code without provisioning servers, or building an API, or maintaining the infrastructure.
Stream Processing is a method of tracking and analyzing streams of information of an event, and eventually obtaining useful structured
conclusions out of that raw information.
Altair IoT StudioEdgeOps is a set of tools for building, maintaining and continuously improving code in resource constrained devices at the
edge of smart connected ecosystems.
The Utility Belt is a web component enabling you to add content to Studio, such as function logs and MQTT inspector, that will persist
when navigating through other sections in the platform.
Categories permit you to group the entities (Things) of the smart connected ecosystem
in a logical way and secure them from an access control perspective.
In your Smart City, you can group the devices for the Traffic Management and the
Parking Monitoring in two separate Categories.
Click AnythingDB > Categories, then click New Category.
Name the first Category TrafficManagement.
The Traffic Management Category will store Things that follow the Traffic
Lights and Traffic Sound Sensor Models.
In the panel, click View things.
Click New Thing.
Select the TrafficLight Model created earlier.
Tip: To add multiple Things using the
same Model and Version, from the Thing details pane, click the Clone
icon. Specify the number of clones and
click Clone.
Add another Thing to this Category, this time selecting the
TrafficSoundSensor Model.
Create another Category called ParkingMonitoring.
This Category will store Things that follow the Parking Monitoring Sensor
model.
In the ParkingMonitoring panel, click Update
Model.
In the Model drop down menu, select
ParkingSensor.
For Version, select v1.
Click Save.
Click View Things and choose to add a new Thing.
See how the fields are automatically populated with the
information from the Model assigned to the Category.
