Arduino
We already organised three 8-week courses. They proved so popular we bring it back on popular demand. See for details below.
A new Arduino course (Winter / Spring 2020):
What do we do?
We will make things using an Arduino microcontroller. We learn a little bit of electronics and just enough programming language to get started. We assume that you get a lot of ideas about things you can do for your work, your studies or for daily use.
Arduino?
We use a popular microcontroller: the Arduino Nano. It is cheap and has many possibilities. You can connect almost anything. In this course you will receive a starter set with items you can use at home, such as LEDs, speaker, photosensitive sensor, distance meter, display, clock, temperature sensor, potentiometer, etc. The programming language we use is called C/C++. We only deal with the most important concepts and commands. You will write your own programs and we use handy libraries to ensure that you do not have to write everything yourself.
When and where?
The course consists of 8 Tuesday evenings from 19:30-21:30 h. On 4, 11, 18 en 25 Februari, 3, 10, 17 en 24 March 2020. The course takes place in the FabLab.
What does it cost and what do you have to bring with you?
The costs for the eight evenings are €120 for FabLab subscribers and €180 for non-subscribers, including materials. You have to bring a laptop yourself. The study group consists of 4-6 participants. To help and stimulate each other, we work in pairs. In order to really benefit from this course, you will also have to work on assignments at home (at least four hours per week).
