This Specialization covers the development of Internet of Things (IoT) products and services—including devices for sensing, actuation, processing, and communication—to help you develop skills and experiences you can employ in designing novel systems. The Specialization has theory and lab sections. In the lab sections you will learn hands-on IoT concepts such as sensing, actuation and communication. In the final Capstone Project, developed in partnership with Qualcomm, you’ll apply the skills you learned on a project of your choice using the DragonBoard 410c platform.

So funktioniert das Spezialisierung
Kurse absolvieren
Eine Coursera-Spezialisierung ist eine Reihe von Kursen, in denen Sie eine Kompetenz erwerben. Um zu beginnen, melden Sie sich direkt für die Spezialisierung an oder überprüfen Sie deren Kurse und wählen Sie denjenigen Kurs aus, mit dem Sie beginnen möchten. Wenn Sie einen Kurs abonnieren, der Bestandteil einer Spezialisierung ist, abonnieren Sie automatisch die gesamte Spezialisierung Es ist in Ordnung, wenn Sie nur einen Kurs absolvieren möchten — Sie können Ihren Lernprozess jederzeit unterbrechen oder Ihr Abonnement kündigen. Gehen Sie zu Ihrem Kursteilnehmer-Dashboard, um Ihre Kursanmeldungen und Ihren Fortschritt zu verfolgen.
Praxisprojekt
Jede Spezialisierung umfasst ein Praxisprojekt. Sie müssen das Projekt/die Projekte erfolgreich abschließen, um die Spezialisierung abzuschließen und Ihr Zertifikat zu erwerben. Wenn die Spezialisierung einen separaten Kurs für das Praxisprojekt umfasst, müssen Sie zunächst alle anderen Kurse abschließen, bevor Sie damit beginnen können.
Zertifikat erwerben
Wenn Sie alle Kurse und das Praxisprojekt abgeschlossen haben, erhalten Sie ein Zertifikat, dass Sie für potenzielle Arbeitgeber und Ihr berufliches Netzwerk freigeben können.

It is hard to imagine life without your Smartphone – you have come to rely on it so much – for your work; to stay in touch with family and friends; to capture and share those special moments; to find your way around in a new neighborhood. Did you ever wonder how and when all this happened? Or how and when GPS sensors came to be in your cell phone?
In this course, we will explore the convergence of multiple disciplines leading to todays’ Smartphones. You will learn about the birth and evolution of Telephony Networks, Broadcast Networks (TV and Radio) and Consumer Electronics. We will discuss the impact of Internet, (multimedia) content, smartphones and apps on everyday lives. We will then look at how this emerging platform called the Internet of Things – wherein billions and trillions of devices communicating with each other and “the cloud” – could enable unprecedented, innovative products and services. Take this course if you want to understand what great new advances in mobile-enabled products will be coming our way!
Learning Goals: This course provides a core grounding in how science and technology have developed to enable the Internet of Things – in a way appropriate for any learner. For those interested in developing further hands-on expertise in designing and developing for the Internet of Things, this course will provide a context to the discoveries and converging technologies that will springboard the next round of innovations. After completing this course, you will be able to:
1. Compare how the telephone system works (that is, peer-to-peer networks) with how media delivery works (that is, broadcast/multicast networks).
2. Explain the tradeoffs between circuit switched networks (that is, dedicated resources) and packet switched networks (that is, shared resources).
3. Tell interesting stories about key innovations that transformed the communications, entertainment and consumer electronics industries.
4. Explain how email, YouTube, SMS, etc. work.
5. Find resources for those wishing to do more of a “deep-dive” into the above topics.
