Course Overview
ESE5160 is a hands-on course that teaches its students the tools needed to design and
prototype an embedded device. The design of an Internet of Things (IoT) device is used
as a medium to
teach the students concepts on embedded programming, hardware architecture design, IoT,
and the cloud.
The class is divided into two big components – Embedded Programming and Embedded
Hardware Design.
Students will pair up to design an IoT device from the ground up. Industry tools and
best practices will
be introduced to the student and applied in this accelerated electronics product cycle.
At the end of
the semester, each group will end up with a physical prototype of their embedded system
design.

Final Project
Students design and manufacture their own board from scratch, then program them with custom firmware. Although the boards may look similar, each group designed it for their own product. You can review projects from previous years at the links below.Spring 2024
