PLEASENOTE:THISCOURSEISNOTACTIVELYMAINTAINEDANYMORE. What this means is that there will be no more QnA, updated libraries etc. However, the libraries and techniques used in the course are still relevant and you will have to do your own research to use the same techniques with updated libraries. If you are only interested and curious about learning how beacons work and how to interface with them, you may still go ahead and buy the course, just beware that the libraries are 2 years old and there might be newer libraries that you could use.
Have you wondered what all the hype surrounding beacons is about? What are they exactly, how do they function?
Are you also an IoT enthusiast like us, wondering what the next shift in IoT is going to look like?
Well then you're in luck, this course is designed to introduce you to the whole beacon technology and the core concepts of it. Anyone from any background is welcome to take this course for a better understanding of IoT and BLEbeacons. Usually, when it comes to IoTprojects, microcontrollers like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, ESP-32 comes to mind. However, we will introduce iBeacons or BLEBeacons. Beacons have revolutionized the IoTindustry with their endless use cases and applications being deployed all around the world. Unfortunately, many people have not even heard of this cutting edge technology which could be being used in their local malls!
What we teach you in the course?
Very Simply, the most excited you should be is for you to get to build your very first IoTproject with beacons (We know we are excited to teach you).
Well, we start off with introducing you to the concepts and core of beacon technology, and IoT in general.
We help you to order you very own kit of beacons from Estimote. We then take you through a complete IoT project, a smart museum, from start to finish with well known IoTtechnologies and protocols like MQTT and BLE.
As an added bonus, you will also get introduced to web technologies like-
These frameworks and technologies are a rage in the industry right now! Ionic is growing in popularity all over the world as one of the best cross platform development frameworks. Node.js well, you know its importance. Also in addition to these you will not use them for traditional web apps but instead deploy a full featured IoTApplication using them, importing libraries for MQTT and iBeacon, and trust me when I tell you, no one is doing this right now!
You will also get introduced to Android Studio environment, very minimally but nonetheless important.
Lastly, our aim is to get you to think "IoT". By the end of the course you should be feeling excited to move on and create apps/systems for your very own IoT based ideas, or at least you will definitely start thinking of ideas if you don't have a few already.
The course has no great pre-requisites except maybe a simple understanding of JavaScript or Programming languages is preferred but not necessary, so what are you waiting for, go ahead and STARTYOUROWNJOURNEYINIOT!
