Introduction

The DragonConnect project demonstrates recording events originating from the DragonBoard™ and managing an LED. Pressing the volume up and volume down keys on the DragonBoard™ generate the events. When one of the buttons is pressed, a client application written using the Amazon IoT C SDK for embedded platforms uses MQTT to transfer the event to an Amazon data center where it is stored in a DynamoDB table.

The LED is managed through the General Purpose IO (GPIO) of the DragonBoard and uses AWS IoT Device Shadows.

The functionality of DragonConnect and how the application is configured is detailed. The documentation includes information on how to execute the client and visit the dashboard.
