Abstract: This Seminar will be of particular interest to students in ESE481 and ESE280 and all others interested in embedded system design. There will be time for questions at the end related to embedded systems design and opportunities in industry.
Case studies of various IoT products developed by Intelligent Product Solutions (IPS). The case studies will highlight design approaches, challenges and lessons learned when designing complex connected products. We will also illustrate how various competing requirements such as battery life, size, latency, etc. are balanced.
