Course Summary

IoT and its Applications using Raspberry Pi is a course that provides practical knowledge on using the Raspberry Pi microcontroller along with a variety of sensors to design and develop IoT-based solutions. It includes writing small and easy codes for sensor deployment as well as for web-based dashboard APIs. In this context, it also explains the edge computing paradigm and low-power wireless technologies used for interfacing sensors with web-based backend cloud platforms.

According to a market research report published by OpenMind BBVA, the Internet of Things (IoT) is predicted to generate an additional US$344B in revenues by 2020, as well as drive US$177B in cost reductions.

The objective of this course is to familiarise students with Raspberry Pi and sensor interfacing, and using data communication for connecting Raspberry Pi with the server backend through various interfaces and protocols. At the end of this course, students will be able to design and develop a real-world sensor based IoT system using Raspberry Pi. They will also be able to connect multiple Raspberry Pi microcontrollers and sensors to a single backend for transferring data to cloud platforms for further analysis and visualisation.
