About

You will be able to

  • Explain the characteristics, architecture and building blocks of IoT systems
  • Select sensors and actuators for temperature, humidity, light, motion and soil moisture applications
  • Program Arduino and NodeMCU (ESP8266 / ESP32) boards to read sensors and control devices
  • Compare IoT communication technologies and protocols: Wi-Fi, BLE, Zigbee, LoRa, MQTT, HTTP
  • Send sensor data to a cloud platform and view it on a dashboard
  • Design simple IoT applications (smart home, smart agriculture) with basic security practices

Who it is for

  • Diploma engineering students of Semester 6 (BTEUP) - Computer Science & Engineering, Electronics Engineering
  • Polytechnic students who need regular coaching, revision and practice for the BTEUP semester examination
  • Final-year students planning a minor or major IoT project

What you need

  • Basic C programming and digital electronics

Questions

Which syllabus does this course follow?

It follows the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) syllabus of Internet of Things (Semester 6). Where your polytechnic follows a different board or a revised syllabus, the centre follows your own syllabus.

Will it help in the semester examination?

Yes. Every unit is covered with solved examples, unit-wise MCQs and previous-year style questions for the BTEUP theory and practical exams.

Will I build a working project?

Yes. A small sensor-to-cloud project with Arduino / NodeMCU is built in class and can be extended into the final-year project.
