To be held on the 28th and 29th August 2011. This course will be split into two days. Day 1 for the first hour or so will be a brief introduction to programming in C. After this we will start using the Arduino. Day 2 will be moving onto further projects with the Arduino. | |||
If you already have experience programming then you only need to turn up after the morning session on Day 1 if you wish. | |||
You will require an Arduino and components for the course. The recommended kit which has all the required components is [http://www.earthshineelectronics.com/10-arduino-duemilanove-compatible-starter-kit.html Kit] (Supplied by [http://www.earthshineelectronics.com/ Earthshine Electronics]). | |||
