IoT & MicroPython Trainer for ESP32-Based Hands-on Programs
I work as an independent IoT and MicroPython trainer, delivering hands-on, concept-driven training programs built around ESP32-based development using MicroPython. These programs are designed for engineering faculty, researchers, and technical professionals who want to understand IoT systems beyond surface-level demonstrations.
The training emphasizes device-level programming, communication workflows, and system-level thinking, helping participants connect embedded development with real-world IoT architectures rather than isolated code examples.
Hands-on & System-Level Exposure
Hands-on sessions typically include MQTT-based communication workflows and BLE interactions commonly used in connected device scenarios with ESP32. Alongside practical protocols, the program introduces low-power and long-range communication technologies such as LoRaWAN at a conceptual and architectural level.
This approach enables participants to understand where different communication technologies fit within broader IoT ecosystems, rather than treating them as interchangeable tools.
Simulation-Based Learning
To support system-level understanding, the training incorporates simulation-based exploration of IoT and vehicular communication scenarios. This includes working with tools such as CupCarbon, SUMO NETEDIT, and network simulators like ns2 and ns3.
These simulations help illustrate mobility models, network behavior, and protocol interactions that cannot be easily demonstrated using hardware alone.
Training Focus
The IoT training typically covers:
- MicroPython-based programming using ESP32
- Device connectivity and communication patterns
- Hands-on work with MQTT and exposure to CoAP and BLE
- Backend messaging concepts and system interaction
- Edge computing and cloud integration concepts
- IoT and network architecture simulation for conceptual clarity
The focus remains on understanding system behavior and design decisions, not merely executing sample code.
