During this workshop presented by guest instructor Sherwood Olson, Chair of IEEE Baltimore Section, students will learn the basic concepts of an IoT station that collects environmental data (temp, humidity, pressure) and uploads it to an Internet data collection site for storage and display. Students will be exposed to embedded programming concepts (Arduino), basic digital system design, and interfacing with Wi-Fi and the Internet. Space is limited and students must register in advance. Click here for workshop registration. Contact Dr. Fenner with any questions, rafenner@loyola.edu.
