Program Description

Have you ever wanted to automate industrial processes? Do you get fascinated by how intelligent traffic lights operate to control movement of vehicles adaptively depending upon the traffic load? Together with many other examples, Arduino provides cost-effective and portable platform to address real-world challenges. The platform contains hundreds of open source libraries that you can easily use to write shorter and efficient codes for different interesting electronics projects. Compared with other platforms in the market, Arduino supports several add-on boards that accelerate development of larger projects, including those suitable for practical industrial applications. This course introduces the Arduino platform and provides core concepts you can apply to develop and implement small and advanced projects. The course, in addition, explores the capabilities of Arduino to design and implement Internet of Things (IoT) industrial applications. You will understand how Arduino can be programmed and interfaced with IoT devices that directly or indirectly interact with the real world. The course provides important fundamentals of Arduino to quickly getting started.
