关于此课程： This course will teach you how to develop an embedded systems device. In order to reduce the time to market, many pre-made hardware and software components are available today. You'll discover all the available hardware and software components, such as processor families, operating systems, boards and networks. You'll also learn how to actually use and integrate these components. At the end of the course you will be ready to start architecting and implementing your own embedded device! You'll learn how to debug and finetune your device and how to make it run on a low power supply.
此课程适用人群： In this course you'll learn about the basics of embedded systems components. If you're a product manager, a technical manager or involved in developing embedded systems or other products, then this is the course for you! This course focuses on embedded systems applications in the area of the IoT. Our blended learning approach offers you the best of both worlds: you can learn online whenever you want to, but can still get hands-on coaching from industry experts. This course is for first year Master students in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science. Note that as a consequence, quiz questions are more exam questions where you have to construct the answer based on the principles that are taught in the web lectures, rather than to recall the literal text of the teacher.

Excellent review in every aspect of IoT ecosystem, from the processor to the cloud.
The course contents were very good and the course was well delivered by the Professors. The course outlines some of the problems we Architects face across the embedded systems industry and I had learnt a lot about how much more care needs to be taken when defining an IoT device architecture.
Very good coverage. Good amount of details in the Curriculam.
Satisfied by the quality of the course and the level of the instructors/interviewee
