About this course

Most embedded developers are not expected to create professional cloud applications but may need a simple application to test and demonstrate their custom sensor data being reported to the cloud. This class will help you create a proof-of-concept IoT sensor node which connects to the Microsoft Azure Cloud.

You will learn how to use Microchip’s MPLAB X IDE to modify a baseline IoT sensor project to incorporate your own telemetry and then use Microsoft Azure’s IoT Central builder to create a dashboard to visualize the sensor values.

This class will use the Microchip SAM-IoT WG development board, combined with a MikroElectronika Weather Click sensor board to emulate an outdoor environmental sensor node communicating periodic temperature, humidity, and pressure data to an IoT Central cloud application. The hands-on lab exercises will step through the procedures needed to provision the SAM-IoT board to connect and authenticate with Azure Cloud Services, as well as creating the IoT Central application and then extending the cloud application further to create queries, run jobs, and set rules.
