Getting Started with Arm Education Online Courses on edX

Digi-Key Electronics will partner with STMicroelectronics to host a webinar on Arm Education offerings on Thursday, Sept. 8, at 11 a.m. CDT.

During this one-hour webinar, the education team at Arm will walk through the online courses they’ve produced to introduce aspiring engineers to the world of embedded systems, IoT and machine learning.

Tim Wilmshurst, academic consultant; Dr. Tom Spink, lecturer in Computer Science at University of St. Andrews in Scotland; and Dr. Michele Magno, head of the D-ITET Center for Project-Based Learning at ETH Zurich will discuss how their materials will teach you to:

• Implement real-world embedded system projects first on a simulated microcontroller and then on Arm-based development boards from ST to build working embedded prototypes.
• Develop code for various embedded systems and IoT applications, such as an audio wave generator, a music player and an activity monitor.
• Learn to optimize machine learning models under the constraints of a microcontroller environment with reference to power consumption, latency, energy and memory.
• Gain a firm foundation to move towards more complex programming, distributed sensing, the IoT, machine learning and Artificial Intelligence.
