  • aws-iot-tree-button

    An innovative AWS IoT solution for ecological corporate giveaways

  • To manage the AWS infrastructure, I opted for AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) in Python. You can find the complete solution on my Github repo.

  • brother_ql

    Python package for the raster language protocol of the Brother QL series label printers (QL-500, QL-550, QL-560, QL-570, QL-700, QL-710W, QL-720NW, QL-800, QL-810W, QL-820NWB, QL-1050, QL-1060N and more).

  • The final step in our process is the physical output, the printed QR code that we hand to our event attendee. For this task, I had a Brother QL-500 label printer borrowed from the available equipment at the company. There's an open-source Python library on Github, brother_ql, that makes interacting with this printer incredibly straightforward from a Linux command line.

  • aws-iot-device-client

    The AWS IoT Device Client provides device-side functionality for AWS IoT Services.

  • To receive commands from AWS IoT and translate them into actions performed by the printer, the Raspberry Pi uses the aws-iot-device-client, which I downloaded and installed on it. You can follow these instructions to do the same.

  • aws-cdk

    The AWS Cloud Development Kit is a framework for defining cloud infrastructure in code

  • To manage the AWS infrastructure, I opted for AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) in Python. You can find the complete solution on my Github repo.
