About IoT and Sensor Systems

IoT and Sensor Systems is designed to make students experienced with various topics in designing control systems, sensors, their creation and the different principles involved. This course will be including, multiple issues in sensor systems such as environmental sensors, biological sensor systems, their networks and operations. It will also include IoT sensors. Candidates interested in the various areas in which sensors are used, and those with an excellent technical background in signal processing should take part in this course. Currently, the world is becoming increasingly automated and digitised; this naturally requires more networking to make things easier and more comfortable for people, so it is expected that this system of sensors will be further in massive demand in the future. We only hope to see this field grow further and further. This entails an enormous opportunity for our students in the future. Moreover, this course is designed to be very far-reaching in terms of the content provided. Students can also join applied computer sciences or control systems developing in the future.

What is IoT and Sensor Systems?

IoT and Sensor Systems will teach students the vast areas in which sensory systems are used, focusing on the Internet of Things. This course will introduce students to the signal processing and instruments necessary for sensory systems to work in a generalised way. There are also options to teach these to students more specifically, focusing on particular industries of their choice. For this course, students will be taught various probability and statistics skills, signal interference, detection and transmission, estimation, and system modelling. Students also need teamwork skills when leading a large group in the making of appliances with sensors. There is a requirement of a good connection and communication network that will help them communicate and create perfect designs and execute them for their applications. Time management skills are also critical as clients usually expect the work and projects done within a limited time. So the development of these skills will be very beneficial to the students once they step into the corporate world.  The curriculum for this course is as follows: Physical Sensors, data acquisition, microcontrollers, sensor networks, optical sensors, chemical sensors etc. For the first semester. In the next semester, students are taught, Control systems, Micro and Smart Systems technology, Sensors for transformation, Biomedical and medical sensors, Neutral networks, Electronic hardware design etc. Along with this, students are also taught, taught Professional Communication, foreign language,

Eligibility and Career in IoT and Sensor Systems

It is required for students in this course to have completed 10+2 levels with a minimum aggregate of 60% with PCM as their core. The exact total has to be maintained at an Undergraduate level to be eligible for a postgraduate in this field. Students in this field who pass out of this course can get employed in various organisations such as colleges, academic institutions, ICAR, National Remote Sensing Agency, North East Space Application Research, ISRO etc. in multiple posts such as Security Analyst, Mechanical Engineer, Research Engineer, System Architect etc.
