IoT is a technology with the potential to penetrate every aspect of our lives as everything around us becomes smart and intelligent. IoT is a network that is seamless and connects embedded objects/devices with identifiers, where M2M communication is possible without any human intervention using standard and interoperable communication protocols. IoT has evolved through the convergence of multiple technologies, real-time analytics, machine learning, commodity sensors, and embedded systems. Traditional fields such as embedded systems, wireless sensor networks, control systems, automation (including home and building automation), etc. play a role in enabling the IoT.

In this background, CII-TNTDPC has launched a comprehensive course on IoT to introduce participants on the usage of IoT in everyday devices and train them to create unique, creative devices utilizing embedded systems and available sensors. Participants will be presented with exciting open problems and urged to think outside the box in order to come up with new solutions. The course will enable participants to identify and articulate IoT business opportunities across a broad spectrum of industries.
