A five day long summer program covering the Internet of Things, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, and Computer Science. This program builds a strong foundation for many STEM undergrad degrees and STEM careers in Healthcare, Retail, IT, Manufacturing, etc. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of connected sensors, people, devices that collect and share data about their surroundings and act based on certain circumstances using software. In this series, we cover hardware and software concepts and develop respective projects. In addition to that we create IoT systems by integrating both hardware and software. Note: All skill levels are welcome to join this series. No previous experience in coding or electronic projects is required. What Will You Learn? (Check description of each sessions to understand specifics of what we do) - Understanding IoT and SMART Technologies - Learn Electronic Circuits and Components (Hardware) - Learn Computer Programming (Software) - Understand & Select Sensors - IoT Systems by Integrating Hardware and Software - Discuss Industrial & Real World Applications In each session, after covering the basics in electronic hardware and computer science programming (Arduino language), we do hands-on projects. For example, we use an LED and control is programmatically using software. We will also measure electrical components using a Multimeter and observe data recorded by Ultrasonic sensors. In addition to that, we will discuss case studies on how each project can be expanded for real life applications in different industries, such as Healthcare, Automobiles, Home Automation, etc. Using electrical components physically requires buying them. To make this series FREE, we will be using software that simulates the hardware components (e.g. LED, breadboard, jumper cables, etc.). Below are the two websites that we will be using to create our projects. Please create accounts for the two websites below: - https://wokwi.com/ - https://www.tinkercad.com/ Note that each session will be two hours long and we will have a 10 minute break in the middle of the session.
