HeatSync Labs: FUNdamentals of Electronics for Beginners

Learn how to make your own fun projects using lights, sounds, and motion. Microcontrollers are the workhorse of modern electronics the way the microprocessor is the workhorse of a computer. Starting with several fun example projects we are going to show what is possible using an Arduino microcontroller. Then we are going to have you program an LED strip, piezo (buzzer), and servo (motor). We also cover wiring up circuits using a breadboard for prototyping. This workshop is intended for everyone ages 10 and up. No programming or electronics experience needed.   Links will be provided to all class material and code examples.   Sign up to get notices about events you’re interested in. A liability waiver is required before using tools. Anyone under 18 must have a guardian.
