Internet of Things: Foundations of Design and Development

About This Course

This course will be useful to IT professionals with baseline skills in computer hardware, software support, and development who want to learn how to design, develop, implement, operate, and manage Internet of Things devices and related systems. You'll begin by selecting an architecture for an IoT project and identifying the benefits and challenges of IoT. Then, you'll select a configure a processing unit, select a microcontroller power source, and use a software development kit (SDK) to program an IoT device. This is the first course in a multi-course Specialization. All of the courses in this Specialization require that you purchase several electronics components that are used to create an IoT prototype kit. This kit is used in many of the activities to illustrate IoT concepts in a hands-on way. The total estimated cost for all parts is under $50. To source these components, consult the list of components in the course setup instructions provided in the first module of this course.
