NEW! MQTTs - MQTT for Sensors

17-Oct-07
IBM has today published the specification for a new telemetry protocol: MQTTs - MQTT for Sensors - aimed at embedded devices on non-TCP/IP networks, such as Zigbee.

MQTTs is a publish/subscribe messaging protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN), with the aim of extending the MQTT protocol beyond the reach of TCP/IP infrastructure for Sensor and Actuator solutions.

Say It, Sign It - SiSi

Several of this Summer's IBM Extreme Blue projects used MQTT and microbroker as their messaging infrastructure.
A system called SiSi - Say It, Sign It - helps deaf people by converting speech into BSL (British Sign Language), rendered via an MQTT-attached Java avatar!
Here are the SiSi press links.

Location Aware Messaging for Accessiblity - LAMA

In the Summer of 2006, a group of very talented students from UK universities worked on a project using Smart Phones, MQTT, WebSphere Message Brokers, and some rather clever application software, to implement a prototype system for making information available to people in a way that is relevant to their interests and location. This project is code-named "LAMA" - Location-Aware Messaging for Accessibility, and has been quite widely covered in the world's press! LAMA LINKS

Welcome to the Smart Lab!

In January 2005, the University of Southampton unveiled a rather cool e-Science project, monitoring lab experiments in the Chemistry department and displaying a live dashboard on a Java-enabled cellphone, all using MQTT and the IBM broker.

Here are some press releases associated with this project.
