Course Description
The explosive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) is changing our lives. Fueled by dramatic increases in technology and the rapid drop in price for typical IoT components, the IoT is being used to sense, connect, and automate our world. This course explores the design of embedded IoT systems and how these systems are connected to the physical world. It provides an overview of the specialized network communications and security that are required for embedded IoT systems. Course participants gain hands-on experience using the Arduino and Raspberry Pi hardware/software platforms to explore specific concepts and technologies that are important for designing and connecting embedded IoT systems. The Arduino and Raspberry Pi sense and control the environment using add-on components such as sensors, actuators, and expansion boards. Course participants are introduced to different types of sensors and actuators. They learn to program the Arduino and Raspberry Pi to use these components. Since the external world may use continuous or analog signals and the hardware is digital, participants learn how signals are converted from analog to digital and from digital to analog forms. Participants learn how to make design trade-offs between hardware and software. Participants also learn how to program the Raspberry Pi using Python.
Students will need an Arduino board, a Raspberry Pi board, and other items. Details about what to order will be provided in the first week of the course.
