Build Your First Internet of Things (IoT) Application on Arm

Highlights

Arm technology powered the smartphone revolution, and now it's helping power the Internet of Things (IoT). This online course will provide beginners with an accelerated path to gain the knowledge necessary to thrive in a world transformed by innovations in IoT.

You can purchase the bill of materials required for the course directly from our technology partner, STMicroelectronics: https://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/campaigns/educationalplatforms/iot-arm-edx-edu.html

Instructor Update: We've identified an issue with the Google IoT Cloud service used in Modules 5 and 6 of the course. We are working to implement a solution to fix this issue and will update learners on our progress.

You'll start your learning journey in this course by understanding the fundamentals of IoT, but quickly move to practical projects that will teach you the essentials of building Arm-based IoT applications.

Given that mobile computing platforms are where IoT often happens, we'll also give you a basic understanding of Android application design, so you can integrate your mobile device into your IoT applications.

IoT applications have the potential to change the lives of billions around the world. This is why we'll also provide you with the social context behind the technology. The course includes videos that illustrate the global impact of IoT applications " especially in emerging economies such as Africa. From 'smart farming', to solar panels and 'blood drones' - each case study contextualises IoT in real 'first mile' and 'last mile' applications, to help you understand the transformative impact of this technology in the real world.

Over the 6 modules, you will gain a key overview of:

- Internet of Things (IoT) fundamentals

- IoT and embedded system architectures

- Embedded application programming

- Connectivity and networking technologies such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), LoRaWAN, ZigBee, and the IEEE 802.1 protocols

- Cloud computing

While not a requirement for this course, we recommend that learners who would like to improve their embedded systems skills (one of the essential technologies behind IoT implementations), also take our Embedded Systems Essentials on Arm edX program.

The Internet of Things is one of the fundamental building blocks of the next wave of computing. Forge your own career path in this connected world by enrolling in our course today!
