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]
