Norse IoT Club

The Norse IoT club is focused on student-led research and projects concerning Internet of Things devices and applications. We hope to foster a community for students, faculty, alumni, and industry professionals who are enthusiastic about the opportunities IoT has to offer.

The purpose and objectives of the club are to:

  • Share knowledge and ideas among students, faculty, and industry.
  • Establish a playground for IoT & Industry 4.0.
  • Develop skills outside of the standard university curriculum.
  • Foster an innovative and entrepreneurial environment.
  • Partner with industry pros working on real-world practical projects.
  • Create an environment for work, tinkering & socializing.

Club members will create hands-on projects with a variety of technologies, such as microcontrollers, sensors, networks, motion, and visual displays. 

Students from all courses of study at NKU are welcome. No technical experience required. The club prioritizes projects that are transdisciplinary, because IoT touches every aspect of lives.
