Arduino workshop 11-1 Friday 2/25

The UMBC IEEE student branch will hold a free Arduino workshop on Friday, February 25, 2022, from 11:00 to 1:00 pm ET in ITE 238. Arduino is an inexpensive, open-source electronic prototyping platform enabling users to create interactive electronic objects. The workshop will lead participants through some guided projects. No experience is necessary.

The Arduino microcontroller is a great device for anyone who wants to learn more about embedded and cyber-physical systems. It is used in many fields in research and industry and might even help you get an internship. UMBC students have used the Arduino for researching self-replicating robots, remote-controlled helicopters, hacking into a vehicle’s control system, and using radar to detect human activity in a room. The Arduino is a wonderful tool and is fairly easy to use.

The workshop is open to all majors and only minimum coding experience is recommended.  Bring a laptop with a full USB A port and charger and download and install the Arduino IDE. All Arduino equipment will be provided.
