After creating a successful beginner course on IoT, We are back with another amazing course that will take your basic coding skills to next level. Internet of Things Automation using Raspberry Pi 2 is ideal for those who are interested in exploring the possibilities of IoT using Raspberry Pi 2. The course assumes basic knowledge of computer hardware and software. However, knowledge of Python programming will help you in getting up to speed.
You will learn how to connect multiples of DS18B20 waterproof sensors to GPIO pins of Raspberry Pi and access the raw temperature via Linux command. You will code the sensors to display the temperature automatically and also get notified via email alert when the temperature crosses a certain limit. Implementation of IoT through Python programming will make the device remotely accessible. If you are a technology enthusiast and want to learn the cutting edge technology then this is the right course for you.
Finally, you will learn how to connect multiples sensors to an open source cloud and access the updated temperature through a web portal dashboard.
The course provides the complete source code of the real time project.
The entire course can be completed over a fortnight, including the hardware assembly and coding in Python programming.
By the end of this course, you will have a firm foundation on Internet of Things using Raspberry Pi 2. You can build own IoT controlled devices.

Apesar de ser em outro idioma, meu conhecimento é baixo em ingles, porem exemplos praticos, para quem seguir o passo a passo, sem erro de dar certo.

Pace of learning was appropriate for my ability. Topics were clearly explained. Liked having the code explained line by line.

I really dislike this course, it's worth to spend money for this. And the content is also not very good. It include only a one project which you can easily do just by googling.

O conteúdo é abrangente e informativo? A qualidade de produção atende às suas expectativas? A apresentação do instrutor é interessante e cativante?
By Gavin Strack on 12/10/2015
This course provides clear and easy to follow instructions on how to set up temperature sensors and display temperatures readings on the web. Whilst IoT is an extremely diverse area, only one method of publishing this data is covered. I would like to see more use cases, and more options included to get data onto the web.
