Getting Started with Nordic NRF Microcontrollers for Industrial IoT

This is a practical beginner-friendly session introducing Nordic nRF microcontrollers and their advantages in Industrial IoT (IIoT) applications.

The talk will cover low power, wireless communication protocols commonly used with nRF devices, specifically focusing on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The session will then transition into the development workflow, covering the essential tools required to build, flash, and debug firmware for nRF boards.

The talk will also highlight Zephyr RTOS, the default and officially supported operating system for Nordic devices, explaining why it is a powerful framework for scalable and maintainable IIoT applications.

By the end of the session, attendees will have a solid understanding of the nRF development ecosystem and a clear roadmap for building industrial-grade IoT solutions using Nordic microcontrollers.
