Introductory Course on the Internet of Things – Level 1
Registration open for Batch 5 (5th to 9th June, 2023)
Introductory Course on the Internet of Things – Level 1
Why should you take up this course?
Objective:
The Introductory course is the first gateway for a participant to understand the scope and potential of IoT. The objective of this first-level course is to introduce to the participants, the concepts and basics of developing an IoT-based system, including the various components of such a system. These systems can be deployed in industries or as prototypes for research in IoT. The course will cover aspects that need to be considered in design, implementation while providing hands on experience in building such a system from the scratch.
Benefits:
Participants will be familiarized with the general IoT framework. The lectures impart systems level aspects of sensors, networks, and computing involved in IoT systems. These lectures would be complemented by hands-on lab sessions that would help build use cases while actually implementing the system. This will include interfacing a basic IoT system to some sensors, the associated interfacing, communication, computation and analysis of data acquired through the IoT sensor setup. The lectures and lab sessions have an integrated format and go hand in glove in building complete understanding of concepts, practically. This course will be a pre-requisite for other advanced courses that will build on this course and will specialize in specific aspects of the course or specific application areas.
Focus:
The focus of this course is to introduce basic concepts, components and means to build a simple IoT system. The course also throws light on the simplified applications and its deployment. The course will involve both theory and practical experiments involving IoT for simple comprehension and application.
Who is delivering this course:
Theory modules of these courses will be delivered by experienced IIT Bombay faculty & lab sessions are by Industry Professionals.
