The term IoT, or Internet of Things, refers to the collective network of connected devices and the technology that enables devices to talk to each other, or the cloud. The Internet of Things integrates everyday “things” with the internet.
With more than 10 billion connected IoT devices today, the figure is expected to reach 22 billion by 2025. We are surrounded by IOT without even realising it. IOT has infiltrated into every aspect of life from app based cab services (Ola, Uber), location based advertising, online maps and directions (Google) and ordering food online (Swiggy). IoT applications are also defining the future of real time treatments in health care.
In this course students will educate the students about how fundamental laws of science are used to create IOT applications. They will learn how sensors like motion sensor, echo sensor, moisture sensor etc are designed using the fundamental principles of Physics, for instance, using reflection or refraction of light in a light sensor.
By learning and practicing a 5-step process of logical problem-solving using technology, the student will be able to go beyond what he/she is learning now and be empowered to deal with a variety of situations. They will also develop a hands-on approach sorely lacking int schools today
It is almost as if she will jumpstart her education and future afresh.

IOT applications
Science true power is in integration of various streams. MRI machines are based on Physics but used primarily in biology and medicine. The COVID vaccine is based on bio-technology and chemistry implemented in the area of medicine.
IOT Level 2 builds further on the basics of IOT – with more complex problems being solved and exploring expansion from Physics and electronics into Chemistry and biology..
Students will learn more complex sensors and the scientific concepts they are based on like properties of gas, pH levels, and even, oxygen levels in blood and heart beats.
By extending the practice of the 5-step process of logical problem-solving using technology, the student will be able to be empowered even more to deal with a variety of situations. While knowledge and practice of IOT will take you forward, robotics along with IOT provides an unbeatable combination.

IOT applications
It is about creating/ building mechanical structures that can perform tasks (Like sweeping the streets of Delhi or picking up loads more efficiently).
The new World Robotics 2020 Industrial Robots report shows a record of 2.7 million industrial robots operating in factories around the world. And in 2022 584,000 robots will be shipped to various parts of earth. This shows a growing need for people who are trained in robotics.
This course helps the child embark on a journey of exploring how to create and build robots that reinforce and apply concepts that he/ she has learnt in school whether it be simple machines, force and motion, while also looking at renewables.

This course helps the student build on the foundation of robotics created with Robotics 1. They will explore further on making robots capable of more complex actions. They will be able to program the robot to detect an object ahead, follow a path, plot a path through a maze and remember it, etc and possibilities of action beyond that. These robots have real world uses.
By practicing the 5-step process of logical problem-solving using technology, she will be able to go beyond what she is learning now and be empowered to deal with a variety of situations. While knowledge and practice of robotics will take you forward, robotics along with IOT provides an unbeatable combination.

Robotics Applications
It brings technology into the art and science of product design. Using mathematical concepts like volume, 3D geometry etc and combining creativity with logical problem solving, product design is given a new dimension. This is translated into 3D printing– the future of manufacturing, giving our young designs a jumpstart to the science of design itself. Here too, they learn and practice out step-wise process of logical problem-solving using technology,. It is almost as if she will jumpstart her education and future afresh.
