Artificial Intelligence of Things

About the Course

Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) lies at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure. AIoT aims to achieve smart IoT operations that optimise human-machine interaction, and data management and analytics. 

More specifically, IoT is set to disrupt the way we live and work. Smart homes that are filled with connected devices are loaded with endless possibilities to make our lives easier, more convenient, and more comfortable. Industry 4.0, which is powered by Industrial IoT (IIoT), promises to turn smart manufacturing and smart factory into a reality. 

IoT devices are expected to generate a huge volume of data. AI techniques such as machine learning and deep learning can help individuals and organisations alike to realise unprecedented business values from these data. 

In this course, you will learn how to work with single-board microcontrollers and computers in conjunction with various connected devices such as sensors, actuators, camera module, smartphones, smartwatches, Bluetooth Low Energy beacons, and other interesting hardware to build various smart home and industry scenarios. You will also learn how to integrate a real-time data pipeline for visualising and analysing the data that are collected by these devices to create a smart AIoT system.
