关于此专项课程

The objective of this specialization is to provide an understanding of interface design approaches and architectures for creating solid user experiences in embedded system prototypes and products. For both machine and user interfaces, we will look at the best practices for the interface design process, including considerations of the nature and content of interaction, whether between devices, between a device and a user, or in more complex systems.

应用的学习项目

Projects provide experience in using key UX design methods, prototyping software-based embedded GUIs, and leveraging the cloud for prototyping IoT system elements while leveraging a wide array of functionality. Software elements include Python, Node.JS, Qt, HTML, and AWS.

课程 1

UX and Interface Design for Embedded Systems

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5346, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.

UX and Interface Design for Embedded Systems is the first of three classes in the Embedded Interface Design (EID) specialization, an online version of the on-campus EID class taught in graduate embedded systems design. This first course is focused on user experience (UX) and the related methods, practices, and principles that will help ensure your embedded interface designs for devices and systems are what your users both need and want. The class includes an introduction to UX, and then a four phase breakdown of a typical UX design process, including planning, user research, design methods, and testing for verification and validation. Much of the content provides generally applicable UX techniques, but particular focus is included for considerations in developing embedded devices. The class includes practical projects that let you try some of the key methods in a thorough interface design process.

Rapid Prototyping of Embedded Interface Designs

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5347, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.

Rapid Prototyping is the second of three classes in the Embedded Interface Design (EID) specialization, an online version of the on-campus EID class taught in graduate embedded systems design. This course is focused on rapid prototyping of devices and systems and the related methods, practices, and principles that will help ensure your embedded interface designs are what your users both need and want. The class includes an introduction to rapid prototyping, prototyping device and system user interfaces, prototyping devices, and design considerations and perspectives for devices. The content ranges from general design best practices to specifics for embedded devices of different types and specific flavors of user interfaces, but all are presented to support developing embedded devices. The class includes practical projects that let you try some of standard methods in software development of prototype graphical user interfaces for devices using Qt and HTML. This course can be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5347, part of CU Boulder's Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.

M2M & IoT Interface Design & Protocols for Embedded Systems

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5348, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.

M2M and IoT Interface Design and Protocols is the third of three classes in the Embedded Interface Design (EID) specialization, an online version of the on-campus EID class taught in graduate embedded systems design. This course is focused on connecting devices to each other and to the cloud to create prototypes and actual systems that flow data from devices to consumers. The class includes an introduction to M2M (Machine-to-Machine) and IoT (Internet of Things) concepts, using the cloud to develop IoT systems (specifically AWS (Amazon Web Services) and its IoT framework), a review of common communications protocols at every level of connected devices, and other IoT design concerns such as security, message queuing approaches, and the use and design of APIs and microservices . The content ranges from general design best practices to specifics for select tools and methods, but all are presented to support developing embedded devices in IoT applications. The class includes practical projects that let you try some of standard methods in software development of prototype graphical user interfaces for devices using AWS, Python, and optionally Node.JS. This course can be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5348, part of CU Boulder's Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.

此课程是 100% 在线学习吗？是否需要现场参加课程？
此课程完全在线学习，无需到教室现场上课。您可以通过网络或移动设备随时随地访问课程视频、阅读材料和作业。
完成专项课程需要多长时间？
There are three courses in the specialization: UI and UX, Rapid Prototyping, and M2M & IoT Protocols - each will take 4 to 5 calendar weeks, not including the final exam.
What background knowledge is necessary?
You should be comfortable in programming and basic computer architecture. The two classes with programming assignments use Python and Node.JS, but if you are an experienced C programmer that hasn't used these languages (as with many on campus students), the languages are easy to pick up and use. We do not teach Python or Node.JS in the class, but we do include some references and examples.
Do I need to take the courses in a specific order?
It is recommended (but not required) to take the Rapid Prototyping course before the M2M & IoT Protocols course, as the programming examples will build on themselves more naturally.
完成专项课程后我会获得大学学分吗？
Optionally, the three courses can be taken for academic credit as part of CU Boulder's Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree and related certificate programs.
What will I be able to do upon completing the Specialization?
The courses ideally support your own development of interfaces from embedded devices to people, systems, and other devices. Interfaces you'll be able to create include physical device controls, interactive graphic UIs, APIs and messaging interfaces, and connections to mobile, web, and cloud based systems. You'll get some experience with common UX design techniques, UI tools like Qt and HTML, and developing Python and Node.JS to make message-based connections to Amazon Web Services, a typical IoT cloud framework.
