Internet of Vehicles Demo System for Autonomous Driving Applications Used in Engineering Education

Abstract

This paper shows two best practices examples to bring Internet of Things, especially Internet of Vehicles in a classroom (i.e. at engineering educational institutions). It includes a proposal on how to incorporate the most complex topic “Internet of Things” in particular “Internet of Vehicles” with small exercises on a model system that students themselves have designed and built. The model system was created as a diploma thesis at a higher technical school TGM in Vienna at the Department of Mechanical Engineering with the focus on automotive engineering. Using this practical model system, the networking of things can be more easily understood, or even problems can be easily shown.
