IoT & ML Pipeline: Architecture & Live Demonstration

Join us for an immersive architectural walkthrough and live technical showcase where we break down how to build an end-to-end IoT machine learning pipeline on AWS using an ESP32 microcontroller and an MPU6050 motion sensor. (Similar Tech Used in a Tesla/Waymo). Room (INV1 - 201)

In this session, we will live-demonstrate how physical gestures (idle, shake, circle, and tilt) stream directly from hardware into the cloud, get processed through a serverless data lake, and are used to train and deploy a compact machine learning model right back onto the edge device.

What You'll Learn:

Device Identity & Ingestion: See how the ESP32 securely connects to AWS IoT Core using MQTT for real-time telemetry streaming.
Serverless Data Lake Architecture: Follow the data flow as IoT Rules route batches into Amazon Kinesis Firehose and Amazon S3.
Serverless Analytics: Watch raw JSON payloads queried and explored instantly using Amazon Athena and SQL.
Edge Machine Learning: Understand how generated gesture datasets are leveraged to train lightweight models for on-device inference using TFLite Micro.
Real-World Scaling: Get a sneak peek at a live drone telemetry demo showing how this exact pipeline scales to complex edge systems.

Agenda:

3:00 PM – 3:15 PM: Check-in, grab a seat, and settling in
3:15 PM – 3:45 PM: Architecture deep-dive: The 5 core AWS services and fundamentals
