You will be required to have Android Studio and Android Things installed on a developer kit. You also will require many hardware components to effectively perform the tasks given in this chapter. The components are very interesting to have, just to see them working, but the Rainbow HAT is particularly important. We go into details about the developer kits and how to pick the right one, as a part of Chapter 1, Introducing Android Things. Finally, to use the Git repository of this book, you need to install Git.
The code files of this chapter can be found on GitHub:
