INTRODUCTION
This course introduces the fundamental concept of Internet of Thing (IoT) and discuss potential impact to various industries by illustrating numerous application examples and use cases. IoT ecosystem consists of sensors, communications network and platforms. The widespread usage of smart phones and smart sensors in the network today has transformed the network into a connected web of smart devices and intelligent services. IoT will become ubiquitous and revolutionize various industry verticals.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
Upon completion of the training, participants should be able to demonstrate the following:

• To understand IoT fundamental, ecosystem, technologies, standards and protocols.
• To introduce the use cases, business application, practical IoT application by connecting smart
   devices to the Internet.
• To understand the implementation structure of IoT and identify hardware and software
   components for related to IoT.
• To implement basic IoT applications with sensors (data generation), connectivity (data transfer)
   and platform (data visualization).

METHODOLOGY
• Instructor led classroom training. It is a combination of lecture, discussions and practical
   hands-on exercise.
• Practical hands-on session will allow participants to experience real IoT application in the
   classroom, using sensors to generate data and laptop to visualize the dashboard.
