IoT Design Challenge 2024
Julien HOLTZER
November - January 2024
Challenging new ideas !
From a simple sketch to a public pitch of your own IoT solution
Goals & expectations
Five weeks ahead
New original design to show
Problems solved and ideas finalized
Good balance between opportunities & constraints
Ready to embed electronics into future projects
Internet of Things
Talking objects
Ubiquitous computing
Internet of everything
Examples
Design your own idea
What could be "Internetized" ? Why ? Added-value first !
How much does it cost : buying and running
Impact for production / manufacturing / usage / recycling
Energy & IT costs : designing sustainable solutions
Find achievable solutions
Design hardware as a puzzle of hardware components
Design software as services for users
Objectives
Requirements
Capabilities
Expected results
-
Description of the design you chose to address
-
Objectives you chose to address
-
Requirements that you identified
-
Solutions that you selected among possibilities
-
Capabilities to be used to implement the solution
-
Result that you are able to present / demo
Design > implementation
Make the right choices according to the objectives you chose
Use your best skills and prefer a finalized design
Prototype accurately only when necessary
The good questions and accurate answers will be considered first
Prototyping must add value to your design
Accepted demos
Poster with 3D design, sketch of the global solution
(electronics + embedding object + user interface) + explanations booklet
Hardware prototype with hidden electronics, mock-up of the interfaces with simulated outputs + explanations booklet
Hardware proof-of-concept fully programmed, integrated in an existing project remixed to add mechatronics + booklet
Ideas

Improve until success
Rely on PDCA as a simple approach for every issue
Analyze and learn from your previous attempts
Accept changes by new plans
Questions to ask to yourself
WHAT ?
WHO ?
WHEN ?
WHY ?
HOW ?
WHERE ?
Reminders
Hardware & software
How to power, how to connect
Components
What is Arduino ?
Electronics, design, DIY, open source, tinkering, IoT
Arduino hardware(s)
Cinque : RISC-V
Beatle
Software(s)
Processing (P5) : same IDE
Standard IDE for Arduino
Other Arduino IDE
ArduBlock : assemblement puzzle
approche dite "low-code"
Arduino Cloud : programmation en ligne
pour installer le minimum sur PC
et bien d'autres : Platform.io, Visual Studio...
Connect & power
USB : power / program / communicate
Serial : communicate / (program)
Wifi : communicate / (program)
Bluetooth : communicate
Ethernet : communicate / power
Wall mains : power
Batteries : power
and many others...
Sensors
Analog inputs
Digital inputs (TOR : "tout ou rien")
IC : integrated circuits
Actuators
Servomotors, stepper motors, DC motors, solenoids
Lights & displays
Buzzer, speakers
Sound & music synthesizers
You (already) are a
Hero of Arduino !
Understand electronics
Identify components
Tinker prototypes
Write software
Design IoT solutions
Courage !
Arduino is a simple tool
Identify all possibilities
Test and fail until a solution appears
Try and repeat for improvements
- January 10th : ideas, thoughts and fears, opportunities and risks = GOAL
- January 17th : objectives, constraints, limits and solutions = VALIDATION
- January 30th : design, explanations, demos, arguments = APPROVAL
- February 7th : final demo, jury and feedback = LESSONS LEARNED
