Arduino and IoT Application Development with ThingWorx

Connecting physical hardware to the digital world is the foundation of the modern Internet of Things (IoT). This text-based course guides you through the process of programming microcontroller boards and linking them to web applications. You will transition from understanding basic electronic components to building fully functional IoT projects. By reading clear conceptual explanations and analyzing structured code examples, you will gain the skills to read sensor data, control physical devices, and visualize this information on the web. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of electronics, microcontrollers, and circuit design. - Program Arduino microcontrollers using clean, structured code to read sensors and control actuators. - Connect hardware components safely to build functional electronic circuits. - Configure data streams and integrate your physical projects with the ThingWorx IoT platform. - Design web-based dashboards to monitor and interact with your devices remotely. - Apply basic security and data-handling best practices for modern connected devices. The course starts with essential terminology and the basics of hardware programming before moving step-by-step into circuit construction. Finally, you will explore how to send physical data to the cloud and build web interfaces. Designed for absolute beginners in electronics and programming, this course requires no prior experience with hardware or web development. Start your journey into the world of smart, connected devices today.
