Qt on Raspberry Pi Curriculum — Control Systems Development

Introduction

I am Sanyaade Adekoya, a lecturer at College of North West London [1] in UK currently working with students in age 16-18 [BTEC Nationals/Diplomas] and the age 19+ as well.

We are working on BeagleBoard-xM and we have just added the raspberry Pi to our project list since this device rival the BeagleBoard at a cost 8 times less than the BeagleBoard.

I have about 24 students attending two class sessions on Mondays and Tuesdays in two of our campuses but I am also planning to run community based weekend projects with Youth in London.

Project Plan

• Investigate embedded programming using QT on raspberry pi
• Investigate control systems using QT on raspberry pi
• Programming embedded control devices with QT and raspberry pi
• Develop Mobile/communication devices based on QT and raspberry pi
• ….
• ….

Overall Task:

• Various class sessions that will emabrk on the areas specified above and beyond
• Hands-on sessions on RaspBerry pi and Business in Business environment and as communication device [e.g. Wifi, Router, Mobile-phone, etc..]
• Robotics and Artificial intelligence in pedagogy environment: Help disable students to learn better and intract in inclusive environment
• Making things walk, talk and interact: Humanoid and machine learning development using QT on Pi
• ….
• ….

Sub Task 1:

Class sessions: BTEC Diploma [UNIT-24], BTEC Nationals [UNIT-2 and UNIT-3]

• Getting started with Raspberry Pi: What it is, features, limitations, etc..
• Preparing RaspBerry Pi ready for use: Choice of O/S:Ubuntu, Fedora, JavaOS, AngStrom, ArchLinux, Windows Embedded, etc..

….

…

Sub Task 2:

• Application Development Part-1: Install Nokia QT SDK
• Interface Programming and development using Nokia QT
• Investigating HCI: QT Nokia in user environment [ergonomic and uses]
• ….

• …

Sub Task 3:

• Making thing talk and interact: Turn Raspberry into communication device ala mobile phone, GSM, robotic, Alarm, SocialMedia/TV, etc..
