IEEE CASS Seasonal School on Circuits and Systems for IoT

download

The Internet of Things domain touches many themes, some of which are in line with humanity priorities for the coming decades. Thus, the 3rd edition of the IEEE CASS Seasonal School on Circuits and Systems for IoT will cover the whole scope of what is the IoT, from radiocommunications and electronics to data processing and Artificial Intelligence, with hybrid half days of technical, scientific and industrial presentations delivered by international experts of each domain and a in-person workshop to imagine and design your own connected object based on LoRa technology.

IoT Worshop

A in-person workshop to imagine and design your own connected object based on LoRa technology. You think about an object within a team and you will program an Arduino, connect it to the Cloud, fabricate its packaging and deploy it to process its data.

IEEE CASS Rio Grande do Sul Talks 2021

Fridays, 1:30 PM (Brasilia Time, GMT-3)

Last year, the IEEE CASS Rio Grande do Sul Chapter and the Graduate Program on Microelectronics (PGMICRO) of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) transformed Local Face-to-Face Seminars into Global Webinars. A report about this action was published in the IEEE CASS Magazine, 4th quarter, 2020 [1]. 

All 2020 webinars(28 talks) were recorded and are available at the IEEE CASS Rio Grande do Sul YouTube channel
