Course Objectives In this course, students will learn the basics of developing Android apps with Java programming language using Android Studio. The main objective of this course is to let students benefit from Android framework to communicate with external devices such as sensors and utilize mobile Android device as the IoT (Internet of Things) gateway.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • write basic Android applications with simple UI design,
  • write Android based IoT applications using device’s internal sensors,
  • communicate external sensor devices with Android based IoT applications,
  • send data from Android application to a web server over the Wi-Fi.
Course Description This course is an introduction to mobile application development using the Android SDK, giving particular attention to the interaction with other devices with protocols such as Bluetooth. Basic Android concepts such as layouts, activities, services, broadcast receivers, databases, Bluetooth adapter, and http connections will be covered, focusing on practical application development.
