UGR Project

Topic

Wireless Sensor Networks for Internet of Things Applications

  • Nice topic to start with, has a lot to dig into
  • The goal is to set up a wireless sensor network with multiple Raspberry Pis, and analyze the data they generate

Topics:

  • Wireless networks
  • Sensor data acquisition
  • Hardware side: circuitry, raspberry pi, hardware hacking
  • Software side: Linux, networking, wireless, cybersecurity

Expanding the project:

  • Project can be expanded to pen testing scenario, RTTY/Packet communication, longer range antennas, etc.

Course Materials

Handouts and written materials

  • Like programming class - provide formal information, but show examples in meetings

Milestones and Goals

  • Schedule for planning goals and milestones for students
  • Each student keeps track of their goals and milestones
  • Progress report - short report on the "what have we done so far"
  • (don't put off documentation until the end)

Weekly group meetings

  • Show them examples of things, explain with a white board
  • Computers are going to be an issue... still.

Online format, how to communicate together?

  • Slack?
  • Possibly a re-usable wiki. This would make it possible to transfer information across quarters. (Need?)

To have students prepared for materials:

  • Have a standard plan of what each student will be doing
  • Set a weekly date and time for group meetings

Task lists

  • Students work through a task list
  • What 6-8 tasks do they need to have accomplished so they'll be where they need to be at end of quarter?

Balance

  • What is already done, versus what do they actually do?
  • Again - use the Raspberry Pi balcony sensor project as a prototype
  • They will need to replicate the setup
  • What is the setup? The setup is a Raspberry Pi generating sensor data - they need to capture and analyze that data
