5 Days Workshop on
"Embedded System and IoT Using Arduino and Node MCU"
GTU organized Five Day Workshop on "Embedded System and IOT Using Arduino and
Node MCU " during 24th - 28th April 2019 at C-i-C3, Design Innovation Centre GTU,
Ahmedabad. 54 participants had participated in this workshop which included 3 Faculties
member and 2 post graduate students. The participants were from diverse fields like
Computer Engineering, Electronics, Biomedical , Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering and
Information Technology.
The workshop commenced with welcome address and introduction of CiC3 Centre and OSTC
Club to student by Ms. Dhwani Sanghavi (Research Assistant - IT) and Introduction of DIC
Centres and about GIC by Ms. Kavita Kripalani (Deputy Director).
Raj Hakani was a academic expert who shared his insights, real life scenarios,
practical use cases and their solutions on Arduino and Hands on Development using various
Sensors, Arduino Boards, and Actuators.
Day 3, 4 & 5: (26th - 28th April 2019)
Jaydeep Bhadani and Akash Patel were an industry experts from ACDC and shared
their insights, real life scenarios, practical use cases and their solutions on Internet of Things
and Hands on Development using various IoT kits.
Detail of Workshop
First session was started at 10:30 AM by ARDUINO by expert Asst. Prof Raj Hakani from CiC3
Section of GTU. By this session students were acquired knowledge of ARDUINO. He has given
introduction of different open source boards and briefed about open source Community. The
journey of Microprocessor and Microcontroller was explained to students with different examples of
application and assembling of programs of processors and controllers. Also, he explained various
application of present technological era.
In next session he introduced Arduino board to students, which included different components of
Arduino and different Types of Arduino boards. Demonstrating the Arduino software installation and
described how the software worked with Arduino board. Pin Description and Pin Command for an
Arduino board.
In the afternoon session Arduino boards were provided to students for hands-on practical. In this
session Prof Raj Hakani taught basic Arduino programming and its modification of program,
understanding of the digital & analog functions, and serial interface to students. Student performed
programming over the Arduino circuit for LED connection, LED Pattern, Seven Segment, LED Matrix
and interface with LCD.
Day 2 started with interfacing of LCD, Making Counter on LED, Interfacing serial data with a
LCD, and Digital Clock on simulation. Student also play with various command of LCD Scrolling,
blinking etc.
In the afternoon session Sensor and actuators were provided to students for hands-on
practical. In this session Prof Raj Hakani explained about the sensors, its need with type of sensor
working principal of sensors like Temperature measurement, distance measurement, magnetic
sensor. Student interfaced with LM35, Ultrasonic sensor, flex sensor, IR sensor whose display
received data on serial monitor as well as on LCD display Screen. Student has also learnt various
motor driver IC and type of motors along with interface DC Gear motor with an Arduino.
Day -3 & 4 (26th - 27th April 2019)
Session started by expert Jaydeep Bhadani from ACDC. Through this session students had in depth
knowledge of IOT and NODE MCU, MQTT Protocol, webpage creation and upload data on cloud and
its retrieval.
Following Topic were considered during Third and Fourth day of workshop
• The basic usage of the Arduino & NodeMCU environment for creating your own embedded
project at low cost.
• Use of Arduino in IoT
• How to sent data to the internet and talk to the cloud.
• How to update sensor reading on Social networking sites.
• How to control any devices from anywhere across the cloud.
• How to connect to cloud ready IoT server using MQTT.
Last Day of Workshop Participant developed and wrote Code for Mini Project by using
Arduino and IOT
Feedback:
• The workshop is organized in a very clean and good way so that all branch student can
understand this workshop - Vandan joshi, BE - EC Branch, GEC Modasa,
• We find this useful and informative that we attended this workshop. We can better
understand the concepts and coding and how we can make an idea work.
- Alex Rameshbhai Pateliya, Computer Branch HGCE, VAHELAL
• Excellent workshop and it should be extended to Phase-2 (Model based hands on)
