Internet of Things Capstone V2: Build a Mobile Surveillance System (Coursera)

You will be able to demonstrate the knowledge and skills you have gained in this course through delivery of industry-appropriate documents such as System Design documents and Unit Test reports. Additionally, you will be asked to describe and show case your project as a short video presentation – appropriate for demonstrating your knowledge and technical communication skills.

Learning Goals: After completing this Capstone, you will be able to:

1. Design systems using mobile platforms. You will gain experience in documenting and presenting designs.

2. Develop systems that interface multiple sensors and actuators to the DragonBoard™ 410c system and develop the necessary software to create a fully functional system.

3. Specify unit tests and system tests, run tests and prepare Test Reports as are commonly done by those working in this industry.

4. Gain experience (and feedback!) in making technical presentations.

Syllabus

WEEK 1

Introduction

Welcome to the Internet of Things! Before diving into this course give us a chance to let you know what it is all about! We will walk you through a module by module outline that will give you highlights on the interesting aspects of the course.

WEEK 2

Capstone, Part 1 - Getting ready

This section will go over the approach our team took while setting up the Capstone project. Here you will see some diagrams, as well as the system components which were used to build our entire systems. We offer recommendations, highlights and examples as to how you can reduce or expand on the project we provide as a template.

WEEK 3

Capstone, Part 2 - Getting set up

In this module you will get to see everything! All of the components we purchased for our project as well as some alternative that might help you cut the price or increase the power of your own system. Once we look at everything we will be using to build our system, we will quickly put it together and test it outside in the sun.

WEEK 4

Final - The last module

This module consists of a peer review assignment with two submission requirements. Please read the peer review assignment carefully and submit the required files for review from your classmates. We here look forward to seeing all of the exiting projects you come up with! Remember: If there are any questions, comments, concerns, or if you would just like to show off some pictures or videos, please go to the discussion section and post. I am sure your classmates would love to help and/or hear about your project.
