Some practice of programming on embedded systems and/or single-board computers like Raspberry Pi and/or Arduino is also required. You should also have some practice working with network socket programming and web APIs. practice communicating with sensor manufacturers and other external partners for sensor configuration/deployment is also desirable.
This R&D project is the extension of the technical strand of a wider Liverpool City Region (LCR) Sustainable Green Travel Corridors project, which supports the economic resurgence of the Liverpool City Region by improving sustainable transport links (such as cycling and walking), removing transport barriers and broadening the travel choices available to LCR visitors and residents.
