A Cloud Device is a real-world device that is augmented with a cloud-based virtual representation of itself. Exosite introducing a new way for connected devices to communicate together from anywhere, anytime.  Exosite is working with a variety of open source development platforms designed to get your project talking to the cloud. In this topic we are giving a briefing of Microchip DV102412 Wi- Fi G demonstration kit. Create a free account on Exosite portal to use this kit. This project is for Microchip DV102412 using a Microchip WiFi MRF24WG0MA module to demo Exosite's cloud connectivity to send and receive data to/from Exosite's Cloud Data Platform.

The MicroChip DV102412 can be connected to Exosite’s services, allowing your DV102412 to wirelessly connect to the cloud, giving you powerful visualization and post-processing tools to analyze and see your data from anywhere.

After following this Quick Start Guide to flash your DV102412 WiFi G module with Exosite’s cloud enabled firmware, your device will be able to report push-button data, ping, and local IP to the cloud. Data reports every 1 second to your Exosite account after the pairing between the device and cloud is established.  For more information about this demonstration kit visits Exosite website.
