Required Hardware by Chapter
This section presents the required hardware list for each chapter that has a project. I include a short synopsis of the main project for each chapter. Those chapters without projects are omitted.
Note
Each chapter is annotated as headed (requires a monitor, keyboard, and mouse) or as headless (no user interface hardware is needed).
Chapter 3 : Headless
This chapter explores the origins of the Raspberry Pi, including a tour of the hardware and a short primer on how to use its native operating system. The chapter demonstrates how easy it is to write programs to control hardware on the Raspberry Pi using a Python script. The project solution is a simple script to turn an LED on and off.

Consolidated Hardware List
This section presents a table that lists the hardware needed to complete the core projects in this book. This includes all of the projects through Chapter 13 , which presents a solid overview of how to start building IoT projects and should be sufficient to satisfy (and challenge) beginners and intermediate readers alike. Chapters 14 , 15 , and 16 are optional for most readers, due to the added complexity and additional hardware requirements.
The following tables present the required hardware for projects through Chapter 13 and the required hardware for the optional projects. If the component can be found in a kit, the tables list the source for purchasing the components as a kit. However, most components can be purchased from an online or retail electronics store, such as Adafruit or SparkFun. In some cases, the component is from a specific vendor.
Once again, it is assumed you will have purchased a board (e.g., Raspberry Pi), a power adapter, and so forth, as described in the “Base Components for All Chapters” section.
Note
Chapters 14 , 15 , and 16 also require most of the components listed in Table A-1 .

Suggestions for Purchasing the Hardware
In Chapter 9 , you discover the main source for the components as the Adafruit Microsoft IoT Pack for Raspberry Pi, which contains all of the hardware you will need for the projects through Chapter 13 as well as Chapter 16 . Only Chapters 14 and 15 require hardware components not found in the kit. However, there is an alternative, as described in the sidebar in Chapter 9 . I repeat the discussion on both options next for reference.
Adafruit Microsoft IoT Pack for Raspberry Pi
The Microsoft IoT Pack for Raspberry Pi 3 comes in two varieties: one with the Raspberry Pi ( www.adafruit.com/products/2733 ) and one without the Raspberry Pi ( www.adafruit.com/products/2702 ) for those who already own a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3.
The kit with the Raspberry Pi costs about $114.95 and the kit without the Raspberry Pi costs about $75.00. Clearly, if you already have a Raspberry Pi, you can save some money there. In fact, for those who want to use a different low-cost computer board, you can buy the kit without the Raspberry Pi—except for the micro-SD card with Windows 10 and possibly the power supply, all of the other components will work with other boards. The kit comes with a number of handy components, including prototyping tools and a few sensors.
Note
You will not need every component included in the kit, but the extra parts will come in handy when developing your own IoT projects.
There are three categories of components: electronic components included in the kit, accessories for the Raspberry Pi, and sensors.
The electronic components provided in the kit include the following.
(2) breadboard trim potentiometer
(5) 10K 5% 1/4W resistor
(5) 560 ohm 5% 1/4W resistor
(2) diffused 10mm blue LED
(2) diffused 10mm red LED
(2) diffused 10mm green LED
(1) electrolytic capacitor: 1.0uF
(3) 12mm tactile switches
The list of accessories in the kit is long. The following includes all of the accessories included in the kit. I describe some of these in more detail.
Adafruit Raspberry Pi B+ case– smoke base / clear top : An excellent case to protect your Pi from accidents.
Full-size breadboard : Plenty of space to spread out your circuits.
Premium male-to-male jumper wires, 20 × 6 inches (150mm) : Jumps from one port to another on the breadboard. They’re extra long and come molded in a ribbon so you can peel off only those you need.
Premium female-to-male extension jumper wires, 20 × 6 inches : Jumps from male GPIO pins to the breadboard ports. They also come molded in a ribbon.
Miniature Wi-Fi module : A Raspberry Pi–approved Wi-Fi dongle (not needed for the Raspberry Pi 3).
5V 2A Switching power supply with a 6-foot micro-USB cable : Meets the Raspberry Pi requirements for power.
MCP3008 – 8 channel 10-bit ADC with SPI interface : A breakout board you can use to expand the number of SPI interface channels for larger IoT projects
Ethernet cable, 5-foot : A nice touch considering the kit has a Wi-Fi dongle. Good to have a backup plan!
8GB class 10 SD/MicroSD memory card : Windows 10 IoT core preloaded!
The sensors included with the kit are an unexpected surprise. They provide what you need to create some interesting IoT solutions. Best of all, they are packaged as breakout boards making them easy to wire into our circuits. The following lists the sensors included in the kit.
(1) photocell : A simple component to measure light.
Assembled Adafruit BME280 temperature, pressure, and humidity sensor : Measures temperature, barometric pressure, and humidity.
Assembled TCS34725 RGB color sensor : Measures color. Comes with an infrared filter and white LED.
Adafruit Parts Pal
If you are planning to use a board other than the Raspberry Pi, are on a more limited hobby budget, or want only the bare essentials, there are alternatives to the Microsoft IoT Pack from Adafruit. In fact, Adafruit sells another kit that includes almost everything you need for the projects in this book. It doesn’t come with sensors, but all of the basic bits and bobs are in there, and you can always buy the sensors separately.
The Adafruit Parts Pal comes packaged in a small plastic case with a host of electronic components ( www.adafruit.com/products/2975 ). The kit includes the following components prototyping tools, LEDs, capacitors, resistors, some basic sensors, and more. In fact, there are more components in this kit than the Windows IoT Pack for the Raspberry Pi 3. Better still, the kit costs only $19.95, which means it’s a good deal (and the case is a great bonus). Although you may not need all of the parts in this kit, it offers a great start for building a supply of electronics parts for future projects.
