- Introduction of Raspberry Pi Gateway
Raspberry Pi is a small computer that uses very little power (2-3
watts). It has all the horsepower necessary to serve as a
cloud-enabled all-in-one Controller.
EG8000mini series products are edge computing gateways launched by
IOTRouter Chengdu. With its rich hardware interfaces, drag-and-drop
programming method, Zero Code design concept, convenient remote
management and other characteristics, It can quickly, flexibly,
accurately and efficiently respond to various IoT industry needs.
Edge8000 abstracts complex hardware interfaces, different
industrial network protocols, etc. into Nodesone by one. Users can
use these Nodes flexibly to replace the traditional complex and
inefficient coding process by dragging and connecting. Really let
customers focus on business logic and quickly create their own
gateway equipment. The mission of Edge8000 is to continuously
develop new Nodes to serve industry customers to adapt to the
fragmentation of IoT industry needs.

There are various ways to implement an IoT gateway. For example, it
is easy to build an IoT gateway yourself using the open source
software Node-RED and a Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi provides the
necessary computer and Node-RED software interface to address or
read the protocols of field sensors and actuators and establish
communication. The EG8000 requires no programming knowledge for
data acquisition, local processing and cloud integration. With
Node-RED, the connection between old and new industrial
technologies in IoT (Internet of Things) can be easily established.
It provides a browser-based stream editor to easily connect streams
using the various network nodes available in the palette. A node
always has at least one input or output. Messages are then sent
between nodes, which can be processed or manipulated in a number of
ways. For example, the measurement data of a simple temperature
sensor can be formatted into the desired data format and then
transmitted to the cloud architecture via MQTT.
