This example demonstrates how you can control physical devices through natural voice commands over the Web in real time. For the physical device I used a reading lamp, but as you'll see, it can be any electric device, really. In my simple scenario I control the lights in 4 rooms of a house. I use a Web app on my computer to give free form voice commands (it could be a mobile app just as easily). The voice command is then converted to text in the cloud by IBM's cognitive engine, Watson. After processing the text, I identify the action(s) that need(s) to be taken. The action is then submitted to control the lights, and is published to the monitoring clients for real-time monitoring.

This is my book about WebSocket. The book provides an introduction to WebSocket, then describes the WebSocket API and Protocol and provides hands-on examples. We deep dive into three use cases for WebSocket, all using higher-level standard protocols (text and binary) over WebSocket.

Finally, we examine security and deployment considerations. [...]
