1. Objectives of the Course

Embedded systems and Internet of Things (IoT) are integral aspects of modern technology, enabling devices to
sense, communicate, and interact with the environment. This course aims to provide students with a
comprehensive understanding of embedded systems and IoT technologies. Through hands-on learning and
theoretical study, students will gain insights into the design, programming, and applications of these systems.
• To familiarize the students with the fundamental concepts and architecture of embedded
systems.
• To apply the concept of basic building blocks of Embedded systems and Internet of things (IoT).
• To familiarize students with the concepts, architectural design, communication protocols, and
challenges associated with the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm.
• To enable students to develop practical skills in programming embedded systems and IoT devices using
the Arduino platform, including interfacing with various sensors and actuators.
• To encourage students to explore emerging trends, research problems and innovative solutions.

* There will be two Continuous Evaluations (CE) for a lab in a semester as CE-1 (Lab work) and CE-2 (Project work), one will be considered
as continuous/day to day evaluation and another one will be based on developed project. Average marks of CE-1 and CE-2 will be taken as

final marks. Lab file record, lab performance in whole semester and internal viva with experiment performance will be taken in consideration
of CE-1.
*The evaluation for Continuous Evaluation CE-1 (Lab work) has three sub components performance, viva and file. Evaluation of
performance and viva will be in two lab evaluations. These evaluations will be done in mid of semester and after ST-3 respectively.
However, File work is continuously checked in each lab and is evaluated in each lab.
* The Continuous Evaluation CE-2 (Project work)) will compromise of three evaluations which are Project & Title defend presentation,
progress evaluation presentation and final project presentation.

** All STs are compulsory. ST1 and ST2 have weightage of 25% each and ST3 has 50% out of total weightage of component 2.

***It is mandatory to complete Components 1 and 2. Further, as per Academic Guidelines minimum 75% attendance is required to become
eligible for appearing in the End Semester Examination.
