Explore Arduino microcontrollers with TickerCad Circuits - Hands on Experience

Hey Austin Arduino Microcontroller Explorer,

Let's get hands on with Arduino Development boards using the online simulation software TinkerCad Circuits.

You will need a computer with a web browser along with an internet connection for this one. TinkerCad is free, but you will need to create an account or log in different existing accounts like gmail or hotmail.

What skills you will gain:

Knowledge of how the Arduino development board works along various sensors / components, and why this board is awesome.

Gain the skills to edit Arduino Programming language programs; then run said program on an Arduino to detect an input, then take an action.

The agenda:

First 15 minutes, I will demonstrate using TinkerCad Circuits, the basic Arduino knowledge / skills you will need, including prototyping and programming with the Arduino Development boards.

The second 15 minutes is Q&A, or spending some time doing a couple labs to validate our newfound Arduino knowledge.

The final 20 minutes, self exploration or designing an Arduino based device to measure a value, and then light a series of LED's based on the results.

No prior knowledge required. Feel free to stop by, ask questions or just say Hello and hang out.

We will use Google Meetup as the conversation, collaboration hub.

Look forward to meeting you soon,

Karlos K
