Internet of things robotics with nodemcu esp8266 arduino IDE

Arduino internet of things with robotics programming using nodemcu esp8266 | IOT based course | IOT programming.

What you'll learn

Build an IOT video streaming Robot that can be controlled by a self created Blynk mobile app
Learn to program IOT device like ESP12E NodeMCU 1.0 board
Learn to interface a ESP motor driver Shield with ESP12E NodeMCU 1.0
Learn Blynk to make a free app over iOS or Android phone
Learn Robotics
Learn Internet of things IOT
Get introduced to the wonderful world of DIY Robotics
Learn how to interface a light sensor with your robot

Requirements

Having two basic smart phone (one for camera mounted over the robot & one for control), A basic laptop with 2 GB RAM
Any 2 wheel robot platform with DC motors
If you have 1 mobile you can use the laptop to see the live videos
Basic programming skills in C
Having an internet connection Wifi
Basic idea on electronics like voltage, current, motors,cartesian co-ordinates
Light sensor, Battery and wires (We have a section on shopping)

Description

“If you think that the internet has changed your life, think again. The Internet of Things is about to change it all over again!” – Brendan O’Brien, Chief Architect & Co-Founder, Aria Systems

MieRobot has designed this IOT Robotics project course as an opportunity for you to get introduced into low cost 'Do it yourself ' (DIY) robotics. This is also a great chance to get skilled in IOT with a certificate from Udemy.

By the end of the course, you will have created an ESP12E NodeMCU wheeled robot that can be controlled through a free Blynk mobile app and you will also be able to see the live video feed as the robot moves around. We will attach one light detecting sensor to the robot which would tell us if the robot can sense a dark or bright ambience.

But more than that, by the end of the course you will have become a better problem solver. You will have experience in analysing problems and designing solutions. You will be able to integrate simple mechanical parts with motors, batteries, sensors and Blynk applications with your mobile.This course will be updated regularly and support would be provided through QA forum.

The ideal student is someone who has basic background in C programming along with a strong interest in Internet of things and robotics. This course is suited for students, professionals, hobby makers and DIY makers.

I invite you to review the free lectures in of the course to find out more details about it.

If you are excited about becoming a Maker with the IOT Robotics, join many other Makers and me in Make an ESP12E IOT Robot!

I look forward to meeting with you!
