General Description
Arduino is a microcontroller, a small cheap programmable computer on a microchip. Over the last decade Arduino has become very popular with a broad range of audiences: universities, schools and maker communities automating everything from robots, 3D printers, sport equipment, scientific experiments and devices in the home. In this course we will step through a classroom tested Arduino learning sequence and learn how to read schematics, construct circuits, write and troubleshoot code.
