Course Description

Internet of Things (IoT) is the present and the future of technology. Either, if you have none, few or some experience with electronics and you want to develop it projects this course will give you the necessary kick start to start creating amazing devices capable of sensing, controlling physical signals. This course introduces it using Arduino and ESP boards. This is a preliminary course in which we deal, with the basics of electronics and programming. If you already know the basics, then the second part of this course will be of your interest, in which we start creating smart devices.

Skills You Will Gain

Prerequisites/Requirements

Very basic knowledge on electronics and programming. We work with a block programming tool to develop programs, so everything has been adapted for students with few programming skills.

What You Will Learn

Understand the basic concepts of electroncis for programming microcontrollers (digital, analog, PWM, communication buses, timers, etc.).

To program Arduino and ESP devices

To read data from ambient and environmental sensors (temperature, humidity, light)

To control actuators such as a fan, a light or a water pump using a relay

To display information on LCD displays to print data of your device

To use buttons and LEDs (and RGB LEDs) to generate a basic user interface
