The CEC will get you up to speed quickly on a host of technologies you've been meaning to study via a series of 45-minute online lessons taught by our faculty of expert tutors.
The Arduino BOE shield is the brain for Parallax’s mobile robot platform development kit. Controlling the BOE bot’s motion requires electronic motor driver circuits operating a pair of servo motors. In this session, a review of the BOE bot shield...
Automation, Robotics, and AI (Artificial Intelligence) technological fields are impacting today’s society at an accelerated rate. Mobile Robot Development platforms allow educators, engineers, and makers the ability to explore these technologies...
In this final session, we will examine the concepts on how we can remotely manage our ESP8266 device node and update the Micro Python application. We will discuss potential problems such as security risks. We’ll also look at how with two-way...
In this session, we will examine how to connect the ESP8266 to the internet. The code will be put in place that will allow a developer to stream their sensor data and store it in the cloud. Attendees will walk away with the knowledge to connect...
Every sensor node requires sensors that will be sampled. In this session, Jacob will walk attendees through how to hook up a variety of sensors to the ESP8266. We will examine sensors on I2C, SPI, UART and even 1-wire. Attendees will learn how to...
There are many different network protocols that devices can use to connect to the internet but a common way is to use Wi-Fi. Sensor nodes should be low power and using a microcontroller and a Wi-Fi module is not a great solution. In this session...
Before designing an IoT sensor node, it’s useful to understand the different ideas and definitions for the IoT. In this session, Jacob will review the system architecture for the IoT and define the terms and concepts along with the hardware and...
