Building Gadgets: an Open Electronics Lab Thu 3:30 - 5pm in Sci 217
A hands-on exploration of interactive electronics using a programmable microcontroller such as the Arduino, some sensors, motors, and a computer. After looking at some basics of circuits and loading programs at the start of the term, you'll choose a project, purchase the materials, build it (probably following a recipe), and explain it. We will likely also play with 3D printing using a RepRap. To take this course, you should be comfortable with a do-it-yourself approach to tinkering, and have had some exposure to foundation courses in physics and/or computers. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor
