Abstract

There is an increasing number of mobile applications used as interaction interfaces with connected objects and Internet of Things (IoT) systems. Smartphones utilize established communication techniques to interact with online services but when it comes to IoT devices, lightweight bi-directional protocols need to be used. This paper describes the development of a generic Mobile SDK that enables developers to easily integrate IoT protocols (such as WebSockets and MQTT) into their applications for communication with an IoT Cloud-based environment. Two different use cases are presented that demonstrate the usability of the SDK.
