This document discusses how to build a first cloud-based IoT application. It recommends using an Electric Imp impExplorer kit, which includes sensors, an LED, and headers. An Electric Imp and AWS account are also needed. The Electric Imp account provides an IDE and device/product management. AWS provides storage and streaming services. A freeboard dashboard can visualize the sensor data. Finally, the document mentions potential use cases like condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.
