== Description == | |||
In this course we will focus on wireless communication abilities of “things“. We will develop various use cases and corresponding prototypes where “things“ are directly connected wirelessly to other “things“. | |||
For example: | |||
A plant pot that measures temperature and water level is considered as a “thing“. The measured information can be shared wirelessly with other “things“, like a computer, smartphone, display, loudspeaker, online service, etc. This flowerpot could twitter the latest results or writes you a personal SMS if water is low. Here, the communication possibilities are many and varied. | |||
In this context, it is essential to understand a micro controller unit, sensors and actors in relationship with distinct wireless technologies. Furthermore, it is important to evaluate the pros and cons of these technologies, their field of applications, limitations and advantages in order to create an application that suits your interests best. | |||
The following technologies and programming/markup languages will be encountered within the course: | |||
* Bluetooth Classic and Low Energy 4.0 | |||
* WiFi | |||
* NFC / RFID | |||
* RF / XBee | |||
* Cellular (GSM, SMS) | |||
* Preferably Arduino microcontrollers. | |||
Alternatively, these boards can be used as well: Raspberry Pi’s and Beagle Bone Boards | |||
* Various sensors and actors | |||
* c | |||
* Node.js (Javascript) | |||
* HTML5/Javascript/CSS3 | |||

In this course we will focus on wireless communication abilities of “things“. We will develop various use cases and corresponding prototypes where “things“ are directly connected wirelessly to other “things“.
For example: A plant pot that measures temperature and water level is considered as a “thing“. The measured information can be shared wirelessly with other “things“, like a computer, smartphone, display, loudspeaker, online service, etc. This flowerpot could twitter the latest results or writes you a personal SMS if water is low. Here, the communication possibilities are many and varied.

Furthermore, it is important to evaluate the pros and cons of these technologies, their field of applications, limitations and advantages in order to create an application that suits your interests best.

- Preferably Arduino microcontrollers.
Alternatively, these boards can be used as well: Raspberry Pi’s and Beagle Bone Boards
