Chatting with Arduino platform through Telegram Bot

Abstract

The Internet of Things extends the Internet connection from people-to-people to people-to-machine or machine-to-machine. This promising research and market field provides technologies and models that allow people to communicate with different hardware with different purposes. This article seeks to introduce the integration between the smartphone messenger Telegram and the Arduino platform using Telegram Bots, allowing common people to create hardware prototypes and communicate with them using the same tool applied in the communication with other people.
