Description
Course description
Do you want to learn electronics from scratch and start creating real projects with Arduino? This course is designed for you, whether you do not have any previous experience or if you have already heard about Arduino but you do not know where to start.
Through this course, you will introduce yourself to the world of microcontrollers in a practical and simple way. You will learn exactly what an Arduino Uno board is, what it is for, how it connects to the computer and how you can program it with the official IDE. I will also explain how to use a protoboard to assemble electronic circuits without welding, and I will show you step by step how to make correct connections with LEDs, resistances and sensors.
During the course, we will carry out several simple but useful projects, such as lighting and blinking an LED, reading values of a light sensor (LDR), controlling a traffic light with timings, and printing data to the serial monitor. All this with clear explanations, diagrams, commented code and real demonstrations.
This course is ideal for students, teachers, curious and anyone who wants to enter the maker world. With a step-by-step methodology, you will learn the basis to continue creating your own projects.
No prior technical knowledge is required, just a desire to learn and some material. Are you joining?
Who this course is for:
- People who want to start in the world of electronics and programming with Arduino from scratch.
