The minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per semester typically comprising a mixture of 3-6 hours of scheduled learning activities and 6-9 hours of independent study per week. Scheduled activities may include a combination of teacher-directed learning, peer-directed learning and online engagement. Independent study may include associated readings, assessment and preparation for scheduled activities.
Describe the application of embedded systems in smart sensor technologies for IoT.
Construct necessary software and hardware to demonstrate IoT-enabled embedded systems described with a set of requirements or constraints.
Construct smart sensor-integrated embedded systems for use in IoT cases such as smart environments and homes.
Investigate energy-efficient techniques to optimise power consumption for smart sensor nodes in IoT applications.
A mini project that will need demonstration and report submission.
Tests and quizzes, based on laboratory, workshop, and lecture activities, will be conducted weekly and at mid-semester.
