Shiny New Floor

After watching the institutional lino floor in the main lab crumble under our feet exposing the bare concrete it was time to do something. After furniture Jenga and 3 coats of floor paint we have a “new” floor ready to support our hacking.. Thanks to everyone that helped out!

Arduino is a micro-controller platform designed for ease of use and learning. It allows the creation of electronically controlled projects, whether it be simple blinking lights, a robot or a music generator.

This workshop is aimed at beginners. You don’t needs any previous electronics or programming knowledge or experience.

Topics covered include:

  • An introduction to the Arduino
  • Using electronic components to build circuits
  • Input and output
  • Generating sound
  • Expanding your Arduino
  • And more!

If you already have an Arduino you can bring that along and just purchase a kit, otherwise choose the option to buy an Arduino and kit. All the other electronic components you need are provided in the kit. You will need to bring a laptop to program the Arduino with.

Here are a few comments from past workshop attendees:

“A nice friendly environment to learn.”

 

“The fact that it was totally new to me and I learnt a lot. The support – friendly and interested and did not make me feel a noob :P”

 

“Loved it! More!”
