ROBOTICS and IoT

By completing this Arduino, Robotics, and IoT course, students will gain hands-on skills in electronics, programming, robotics, and IoT.

Electronics & Circuit Design
✔ Understand basic electronics – Voltage, current, resistance, Ohm’s Law.
✔ Identify components – Resistors, capacitors, LEDs, sensors, motors.
✔ Read schematics & use a breadboard – Build circuits without soldering.
✔ Use a multimeter – Measure voltage, current, and resistance.

Arduino Programming (C/C++)
✔ Write & upload Arduino sketches – Using the Arduino IDE.
✔ Basic C/C++ programming – Variables, loops (for, while), conditionals, etc.
✔ Work with digital & analog signals – Read buttons, PWM for motor control.

Interfacing Sensors & Actuators
✔ Connect & program sensors – Temperature (LM35), light (LDR), ultrasonic
✔ Control motors & servos – DC motors, stepper motors, servo motors.
✔ Use Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) – Dim LEDs, control motor speed.

Robotics Fundamentals
✔ Assemble a robot – Motors, wheels, chassis, power systems.
✔ Use motor drivers (L298N) – Control direction & speed of DC motors.
✔ Program robot behaviors – Line-following, obstacle avoidance, Bluetooth control.

Internet of Things (IoT) & Cloud Connectivity
✔ Connect Arduino to Wi-Fi – Using ESP8266/ESP32.
✔ Send/receive data to the cloud – Using ThingSpeak, Blynk.
✔ Remote control devices – Via smartphone or web dashboard.

Students will apply all skills to build projects like:
✅ Smart Home Automation – Control lights/fans via IoT.
✅ Autonomous Robot – Maze-solving or object-avoiding robot.
✅ IoT Agriculture System – Monitor soil moisture & auto-water plants.
✅ Health Tracker – Wearable device logging heart rate to the cloud.
