    Hello guys ,I'm new to Qt, I'm working on a project with wireless sensors network, I'm thinking to develop a desktop application in Qt to monitor the sensor data and visual the data is that possible with Qt? Can anyone one give me initial guidelines how to proceed? What sort of libraries do I need?

      Hi
      Yes its very possible in Qt.

      I assume sensor interface is TCP?
      http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qnetworkaccessmanager.html
      That can read from the sensors.

      For plotting
      I would suggest CustomPlot
      http://www.qcustomplot.com/index.php/introduction
      Very easy to get up and running.
      There is also
      http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtcharts-index.html
      and
      https://sourceforge.net/projects/qwt/

      What platform ?
      Windows?

          Np.
          Do the sensors have a protocol or something ?
          How does it send data?

              Ok, reading a little , it seems they have full protocol and SDK.
              So most likely your Monitor app should use that in order to talk directly to
              motes.
              I would ask them directly if Data via pure TCP is possible or what they would suggest
              for a custom Monitor app.
