IoT for Sustainability

The team’s goal is to use Intel Edison Embedded Processor and Sensor kits to create a summer workshop project for Senior High-school and Freshmen Undergraduate Engineering students on a theme titled, "Internet of Things for Sustainability".

Problem Statement
Internet of Things(IoT) is the intermingling of the physical world with technology, particularly relating networking. This field is rapidly expanding with self-driving cars and remote control home security systems being prime examples. This new wave of technological integration is making lives easier by automating more tasks and allowing remote control of appliances and other structures that normally are not tethered to technology. This creates a demand for a workforce of well trained, highly educated individuals to innovate and secure this technology.

Proposed Solution
We propose creating a Summer camp to encourage high school students to study Internet of Things in college. In the camp, students will have fun and learn about programming and micro controllers. This early exposure will encourage students to study Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Electrical Engineering. Thus, ensuring a supply of future professionals to work in the rapidly changing landscape known as Internet of Things.
