Arduino Zero to Hero
Mastering Arduino Step by Step : Circuits, Programs, Sensor Libraries, Storing and Visualizing Data
Description
Arduino is an open-source microcontroller used for building electronics projects. Since it arrived on the scent, Arduino completely revolutionized DIY electronics, making it possible for artists, teenagers and hobbyists to create a vast array of projects which interact with people and the environment.
In this course you will learn how to create simple projects by using Arduino.
This course is a product of my 5 years of playing and teaching with Arduino's. The learning sequence of
Sections 1-3 introduce Arduino and build student confidence by first learning how to just build circuits and afterwards how to write programs.
Section 4 teaches the fundamentals of analog circuits and applies those to sound sensors, temperature sensors, light mixers and musical instruments.
Section 5 takes on digital circuits, starting with button inputs being used to create sound effects, memory games, guessing games with a 7 segment display and measure human reaction time.
Section 6 is all about installing and using sensor libraries with Gyro Accelerometer Circuits and Remote Control Circuits.
Section 7 Wraps up the course with some spectacular visualizations of sensor outputs using a software called Processing.
Each section will help you learn and finally you can be a master of Arduino.
