*UMPSA STEM Lab Raspberry Pi Programming Synopsis can be found here.

In the Raspberry Pi IoT session, 35 students and teachers from SMK Peramu Jaya Pekan were introduced to the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) using Raspberry Pi on the UMP STEM Cube, a pico-satellite learning kit specifically designed to facilitate engineering learning.

The content covered basic digital input/output operations on onboard LEDs, as well as topics such as dashboard design using gyro meter and BMU280 sensor data, including collecting and storing data in a cloud database. Participants learned to interface sensors with Raspberry Pi boards and develop IoT applications for real-world scenarios. The session provided students with valuable insights into IoT technology and its applications in various domains.

A special appreciation is extended to Cikgu Arni and Cikgu Azila from SMK Peramu Jaya Pekan for coordination in facilitating communication between the participants and the UMPSA STEM Lab :).

UMPSA STEM Lab Arduino Programming can be found here.

Throughout the course, 30 participants from SMK Indera Shahbandar Pekan were introduced to the concepts of programming loops, conditional statements, and sequential execution. Activities include controlling multiple LEDs, understanding the concept of digital output, using a photoresistor to expand their understanding of sensor interfacing, integrating analog sensors with Arduino and controlling digital outputs based on sensor readings. Towards the end, participants visualize data and messages using an OLED display.

Thank you Cikgu Dahlia  for coordinating the communication between UMPSA STEM Lab and the participants.
