This laboratory is located in the office of ITT Group in Tallinn, Estonia.

This laboratory consists of an RGB LED module connected to the ITT IoT controller module. The module contains one RGB LED. This node can be used to create very basic MQTT systems but can also be used as a signalling part of other more complicated systems.

General knowledge of MQTT protocol: topics, brokers, subscribe, publish.

This laboratory conisists of a ITT IoT controller module connected to a RGB LED module.

This laboratory involves a WS2812B RGB LED. RGB LEDs are basically three LEDs (red, green, blue) that are built inside one shell. They include a WS2812 driver that makes it possible to use only one pin to control them.

• LED size: 5050
• Colors: 16777216

Connected to port GPIO4.

To control WS2812B RGB LED the following libraries are used:

• ITTIoT libary - used to program the controller module.
• Adafruit NeoPixel libary - used to control the RGB LED.

The user can connect to this controller using the Distancelab environment.

At the same time, one user can program the controller. But all users connected to the Distancelab MQTT broker can control the RGB LED, assuming they use the topic described in the controller program.

// When we setup the NeoPixel library, we tell it how many pixels,

// Note that for older NeoPixel strips you might need to change 
// the third parameter--see the strandtest
