Mechatronics and the Internet of Things combines sensors, actuators, computation, and communication to realize integrated objects capable of robust Internet-based interfacing. Students will gain experience with circuit development, mechatronic systems, MicroPython coding, and Internet communication protocols using the ESP32 microcontroller platform. The project-focused course combines lectures and hands-on labs to drive learning at the convergence of mechanics, electronics, and software domains for IoT smart object development.
