In the “IoT – Internet of Things: Connecting Things” course, you’ll dive deep into the fundamental concepts that drive the Internet of Things (IoT). You’ll start by exploring the core reasons behind the move to connect everything, identifying what exactly can be connected, and learning the strategies to establish this extensive connectivity. The journey will take you through the workings of a typical IoT solution which encompasses sensors, local analytic capabilities, network connections, and the skills to analyze the collected data effectively. You will learn to enhance products, processes, or businesses through detailed instrumentation and data collection, starting from an end-to-end connection from a sensor to a gateway, all the way to networks and the cloud. Moreover, the course guides you in pinpointing problems solvable by IoT and helps you design an IoT system precisely catered to solve those issues. It is a comprehensive approach to understanding and utilizing IoT in real-world scenarios.
