Diseño e implementación de un dashboard para monitorización de datos a través de un raspberry Pi 4

Abstract

This project aims to design and implement a dashboard for the Raspberry Pi 4, inspired by the existing Thinger.io platform. The goal is to create a prototype dashboard that includes the four most used graphs in Thinger.io, providing functionality for monitoring both analog and digital data. This solution is specifically tailored for the Salesian Polytechnic University's IoT labs, offering a low-cost, open source alternative to proprietary applications. It was decided to employ the XP methodology to ensure an agile and adaptable development of the project. We started with a detailed investigation of the capabilities of the Raspberry Pi 4 for sensor data acquisition and processing, ensuring an effective integration of libraries and APIs. Subsequently, the dashboard was designed, focusing on maximizing compatibility with the available hardware and providing clear and effective visual representations of the data through the careful selection of graphics and widgets. The development phase concentrated on the basic implementation of data monitoring. Finally, tests were performed to validate the functionality and efficiency of the system in a controlled environment. In conclusion, the project will deliver a functional dashboard prototype that will serve as a base tool for future developments in the IoT field. While acknowledging current limitations, it is expected that this solution will not only directly benefit the academic community of the Salesian Polytechnic University, but will also foster collaboration and innovation in the field of information and communication technology.
