The InqPortal IoT / App / Web server version 5.2.2 is now available in the Arduino IDE Library Manager. Here are the new features and what you can expect from them.
Multi-Server
All web-servers, InqPortal included, are geared to service multiple clients. Now, the InqPortal client library supports connecting to multiple servers. The servers do not have to be the same InqPortal project. The advantage in Home Automation is simple… you can have a single dashboard that hooks up to all of your various devices and retrieves and controls all from one client… AND since it is browser based, it runs on Windows, Android, Apple and Linux.

InqSpeedRacer
Once you download the InqPortal library from your Arduino IDE, you’ll have access to the InqSpeedRacer Example that high-lights the multiple-clients talking to multiple-servers. Each InqSpeedRacer server is a speed-trap giving you immediate speed results. They can be linked together via the browser based InqSpeedRacer clients. By doing this, we set it up to connect to several InqSpeedRacer servers to act as a finish… like a Pinewood Derby. We also can have multiple clients talking to the multiple servers for a judge to control the races, a backup judge using their smart phone and finally a large screen projection system so the audience can see the results as fast as the judges.
