This course is designed to make the learning of IoT fun, with a high-level programming language (Scilab) which is easily learned but yet powerful to produce a fast prototype of an IoT project.

Together with Trity IoT module, we would show how Scilab could be used in a various subdomain of the IoT, from being part of the “things”, to the data analysis and visualization.

The participant would have the chance to build their own prototype of smart sensors and also getting the data submitted to the cloud services (FAVORIOT) and retrieved the data for analysis, both using Scilab as the main interface.

Who Should Attend

This course is designed Anyone who would like to embrace computer vision by making use of the Raspberry Pi, engineers, researchers and scientists and alike for their application and interests.

Human Resource Development Fund (HRDF)

Our courses may be submitted to HRDF for SBL claims. Kindly check with your Human Resource Department or Training Unit.  Alternatively, we could also assist to advise you on your HRDF application.

Training Outline

Getting Started with Scilab for IOT

• Introduction to IoT, from the “things” to the middleware.
• Understanding REST API and JSON.
• How Scilab could fit into the subdomains of IoT
• Interaction with FAVORIOT
• Hands-on practical 1: Software installation on PC
• Hands-on practical 2: Understanding API by example.

Sensors and Devices in IOT

• Introduction on the “Thing”
• Turning Arduino into a DAQ as a fast prototype (No coding in Arduino involved)
• Hands-on practical 3: Building a prototype of Smart Sensor with Scilab.

Sending Data to the Cloud

• Getting data from sensors and send the data to the cloud
• Hands-on practical 4: Connecting Arduino to Scilab and using Scilab as the station to upload the data to FAVORIOT

Getting Data from the Cloud

• Getting data from FAVORIOT with Trity’s Scilab IoT module
• Hands-on practical 5: Using Trity’s Scilab IoT module to extract the data uploaded to the FAVORIOT previously

 Project: Building A Simple IoT System with Scilab and FAVORIOT

Recently, I was invited for a talk on “How the Internet of Things Shape Better Outlook for Your Business in the 21st Century” at Tech Talk Volume II hosted by Net2One. It’s a closed presentation meant for Al Bukhari Group of Companies and their customers.

LinkedIn is an excellent website to seek jobs and network with the professionals. People who subscribed to LinkedIn are mostly genuine whereby they will disclose their professional profile in a transparent manner. Thus, you can clearly see their job titles and experiences.

Five or ten years ago, the job titles that bear the word “M2M” were too common, but things have changed since the last two years. Internet of Things is the most hype word in the business world.

When I decided to embark on the business of IoT three years ago, I decided what will be the name of the company and surprisingly, there is no business is Malaysia have “IOT” in their company’s name. Thus, I chose “REDtone IOT” as our company’s name and very excited to be the first in Malaysia. We also created job titles such as – IOT Specialist, IOT Manager, Lead IOT Engineer, etc. These titles are non-existent in LinkedIn during that time.

And later, when I left the company to set up another IoT company, we still choose IoT in the name of new Startup called “FAVORIOT“. We have added “IoT Business Executive” and “IoT Apprentice” as part of the job titles.

And today (2017), things are very different, we can see many jobs which are now focused and specialised in the areas of IoT such as:

• Chief IOT Officer
• IOT Software Engineer
• IOT Application Developer
• IOT Mobile Application Engineer
• IOT Solutions Architect
• General Manager IOT Software
• IOT Product Manager
• IOT Client Solutions Architect
• IOT Solutions Sales Architect
• Partner Development Manager – IOT
• Service Sales Engagement Manager – IOT
• Sales Director IOT
• PR Manager IOT
• IOT Data Analytics
• IOT Ecosystem Technology Intern
• …..and much more

Rarely you will see jobs have M2M titles and even if they do, they will have both “IOT and M2M” in their job title. Probably, people perceived M2M as an “old” technology. Thus, they fancied having IOT that is more fashionable, trendy and the “in-thing.”

The trend using “IOT” as their job titles shows that Internet of Things is becoming a serious business focus. People that have the knowledge and experience in IOT are rare in the market. We see Universities started to offer subjects related to IOT, and this is a good indication that the industry will get more supply of new graduates that have IOT background.

Personally, I see people that have “IOT skills” are very rare breed. They combined multiple skills both from technology (sensors, mobile, cloud, analytics, etc.) and business acumen (solutions selling, partner development, etc.). IOT is here to stay and thus, need to ensure that we have enough pool of resources to make all the “Smart” applications that IOT promised be a reality.

Let’s create the next generation of “IOT specialists”!
