Hello! and Welcome to our course "Practical IoT
with Raspberry Pi": In this course
you will learn the basics to do gorgeous applications
to control and monitor your devices
and your environment, that is,
to create "things" that connect to the Internet of things
The Internet of Things is the next digital revolution
through which billions of connected things
will transform our lives, comfort and security,
provide better health-care
and increased independence,
and address societal challenges.
Currently there are nearly five billion
connected things,
and there is an estimation to reach fifty billion by 2020.
Samsung CEO predicted in the previous
Consumer Electronics Show that by 2017,
90% of all Samsung hardware
will be Internet-connected.
And in 2020 every Samsung product
will be part of the Internet of things,
no matter whether it's an air purifier
or a vacuum cleaner.
But why is the IoT so important?
well, IoT will connect many things
of our daily live to the Internet.
As an example, a coffee machine,
so you can create your coffee
with your phone, a refrigerator
that detects spoiled food
and send you a warning message,
a temperature sensor for the food
that tells you when the turkey is ready…
And, that's only the beginning!
Imagine all lights of a city connected to the internet
so they can be switched on only when needed.
How much energy could be saved!.
Or the cars connected to the internet
so the traffic can be regulated
in real time to avoid traffic jams!
The IoT, combined with the cloud,
big data and artificial intelligence technologies
will allow to develop new intelligent applications
that will make our cities Smart.
And how is it possible?
Several key points have made this possible
cheap sensors and microprocessors
ubiquitous wireless coverage,
cheap bandwith and smartphones,
amongst others.
Ok, so let's get back to the course.
In this course you will learn
how to create one thing in the internet of things.
How? First, you will learn the basics
of the Raspberry Pi, the development board
that we have chosen for this course.
the Raspberry Pi
is a very cheap computer
that can run powerful applications.
It costs about 35€
has built in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules
and several input and output ports to connect
other devices as sensors and actuators.
you will learn how to use sensors
to monitor the environment
and upload this data to servers
in the Internet, where you will be able
to access your data from everywhere
and even share your data.
You will also learn how to control actuators
so they will do whatever you
command from a galaxy far far away!
You will be able to know
the temperature and humidity of your home
and change the thermostat
if someone has entered your garage
and activate an alarm
or if your plants need water and water them
the course is divided in six modules.
In the first module you will learn the basics
of the Raspberry Pi
and its operating system: Raspbian.
in the second module you will learn the basics
to make programs in python, the language
you will be programming in this course,
very simple but powerful!
In module 3 you will learn the basics
of Internet, so you can do amazing stuff
getting and sending data to your Raspberry.
and in module 4 you will learn how to connect
devices to your Raspberry
like a temperature sensor
a camera or a motor
and how to use them.
Module 5 will be dedicated
to learn how to make use of this data
but using interfaces.
In first place web interfaces,
to host your data and access them everywhere.
And in second place mobile apps,
to access data and control your pi
from your cell phone.
finally, in module 6 you will demonstrate
all you have learned by developing
a final project: a weather station!
Good luck! And we hope you enjoy the course!
