Finalité

The goal of this course is to study both hardware components and operating systems used in resource constraint applications often encountered in IoT and more generally in Embedded Systems. After completing this course, you will be able to build from scratch a complete embedded system: from selecting the right combination of hardware and software stack to the integration process suitable for building a specific project.

Compétences visées

• IoT engineer
• Hardware / Software integration engineer
