IFD:Designing Networked Objects/César Felipe Daher: Difference between revisions

The first one was in the core of the project, while the second and third were only used for some early testing. In order to use the search feature, it is required to define a search string, which can be formatted to include complex parameters (explained in the [https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/tweets/search/api-reference/get-search-tweets Developer Twitter Documentation]). This function, however, does not support tweet collection or analysis.

Once I understood how to properly use this library and had successful attempts, I moved on to develop a more complex mechanism. Inspired by the previously mentioned Twitch Plays Pokémon, I devised a device which would collect tweets with any one of the directional words "up", "down", "left" and "right" (excluding retweets, in order to prevent duplicates) and use them as commands for the microcontroller. The interesting thing about these words is that they are extensively used in the English language with other conotations, which makes the search especially random.
