Welcome to the Virtual AWS IoT button! Our research team has several of these little buttons hooked up to the system, but to allow everyone the ease of seeing how the IoT buttons work we decided to provide a virtual button! Each button when pressed sends three pieces of information using the AWS lambda function: The button serial number, the type of press (short or long), and the number of voltages that passed through the button.
For our case, the serial number and button-press type are the two important pieces of information. Our research uses the three types of button presses to mean different things.
To use the virtual button, please enter a serial number, choose a button type, and enter in the phone number of the "health care professional" you would like to notify. (For visable results, we recommend entering a number you have access to.) Once you complete the fields, click the button and wait for the phone to buzz!
