The Java IoT Community

Tom Maynard
Filter: Read on only if you are interested in embedded Java, and/or the "Internet of Things" (IoT).

Okay, so you're interested.  First, you may visit or bookmark the home page of the Java.net IoT Community.  But the secondary motivation for posting this is to alert the embedded Java (i.e. NetRexx) community about the IoT Developer Challenge.  Be advised that the "prize" is simply a free trip to JavaOne -- up to three people receive free admission, airfare and hotel (up to USD 2,000).  At least it's in San Francisco, Sep 28-Oct 2, so a free mini vacation is also an excellent prize if you choose to skip the convention.  Or, if you would like to investigate the agenda, the convention's website is here.

On the Java.net IoT Community pages you'll find pointers to the Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, and many others ... such as those listed here.  I have a RasPi and a BeagleBone, and I have Java + NetRexx running on both.  Read about the challenge on this page and decide if you'd like to enter.

There is at least one member of this list who is actively using NetRexx Embedded on a BeagleBone Black, perhaps there are others.  I have one friend who planned to use a Raspberry Pi in a project, but switched to an Arduino for cost/efficiency reasons (but he is using C in any event).  [I haven't yet convinced him to try NetRexx.]
