Arduino
We already organised eight 8-week courses, given by Arthur Rep, a local expert. They proved so popular we bring it back on popular demand. See for details below.
NEW: a monthly Arduino evening @ FabLab Wageningen !
An evening is organized once a month for Arduino microcontroller enthusiasts where people can come with ideas, questions and experiences. The meetings take place in the Fablab every last Thursday of the month from 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM. The first meeting is on January 30. We would like to know how many people are participating, so if you want to come, send an email to onecue@chello.nl.
A new Arduino course (Winter/Spring 2025):
What do we do?
We are going to make things using microcontrollers (Arduino). 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 box with items you can use at home, such as a light sensor, temperature sensor, LCD screen, LEDs, speaker, clock module, relay, switch, SD card reader. 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 20:00-22:00 h, on 4, 11, and 18 February, 4, 11, 18 and 25 March and 1 April (2025). The course takes place in the FabLab.
What do you have to take with you and what does it cost?
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 (preferably Windows). The minimum number of participants is four and the maximum number is eight. 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).
