Introduction to IoT Using Arduino

• A general understanding of electronics.
• Arduino language (based on C/C++) will be used; no previous programming experience is required.
• Participants are responsible for purchasing their own Arduino hardware and components. We recommend the Arduino Starter Kit (https://store.arduino.cc/products/arduino-starter-kit-multi-language).

Audience

• Hobbyists
• Hardware/software engineers and technicians
• Technical persons in all industries
• Beginner developers

Internet of Things (IoT) is a network infrastructure that connects physical objects and software applications wirelessly, allowing them to communicate with each other and exchange data via the cloud. 

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn the fundamentals of IoT as they step through the creation of an Arduino-based IoT sensor system.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the principles of IoT, including IoT components and communication methods.
• Use Arduino communication modules to build different types of IoT systems.
• Use a mobile app to control Arduino.
• Connect an Arduino to other devices through Wi-Fi.
• Build and deploy an IoT Sensor System.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Lots of exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.

Course Customization Options

Arduino is available in different models and supports different programming interfaces (C, C++, C#, Python) and IDEs (Arduino IDE, Visual Studio, etc.). To request a different setup, please contact us to arrange.
