You will learn about electronics and programming, starting from the very basics and building up to mastery of the Arduino platform. You will learn how to use sensors to detect external events, such as light or sound, and how to perform an action linked to these events.

The course also provides a natural introduction to the world of FabLabs, an international network of over a thousand spaces where people can access digital manufacturing machines and practice using Arduino alongside other makers.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to :

• program an Arduino microcontroller

• interface Arduino with analog and digital sensors (detecting things like light, noise, or pressure)

• use a software library to control motors, lights, sounds, and more

• apply key concepts for prototyping from Fablabs (learning by example, rapid prototyping)
