This is an example implementation of services and devices on the IOTA network using a weather station, FPGA, and a garage door opener. The IOTA network is still a young protocol with a lot of room for interpretation on how to best utilize it. While there have been attempts to market data for financial gain, I believe the more practical application lies in the sale of IoT devices with an ASIC POW chip to talk on the IOTA network effortlessly.
This demo client is essentially a tool to listen to the iota network and make decisions (open/close the garage door) based upon specified instruction sets and inputs that you can find in test/weatherProgram.json
