IOT (Internet of Things) System Design
Enrollment in this course is by invitation only

The focus of this introductory course would be “the smart sensor node” with emphasis on design, requirement, data interfacing and capabilities. The course would cover engineering fundamentals, blended with good industrial practices, which lead to the first-time success of the design and development of sensor node. API development, cloud computing, and data analysis would also be covered in brief. Lab sessions and case studies will supplement the classroom interactions.
