What is an Arduino?

An Arduino is an open-source electronics platform. Arduino boards read inputs (i.e. pressing a button) and turns them into an output (i.e. when the button is pressed, the light turns on). These instructions are sent to the board using the Arduino Software (IDE) and Arduino programming language which can be used cross-platform (i.e can run on Windows, Macintosh OSX, and Linux). 

What Can You Do with an Arduino?

There are many things you can do with an Arduino ranging from simple circuits that make a light blink, to more complex ones that control servo motors. The Arduino Project Hub is a great place to learn about Arduino projects that people from all over the world are working on.

Arduino Trainings

Arduino Basic Training

This is a basic Arduino training that will allow users to become familiar with the Arduino board, breadboards, jumper wires, resistors, LED diodes, and the Arduino Software (IDE). This tutorial will show users how to make a light blink and challenge them to add other components like a button or ultrasonic sensor to vary the […]

Arduino Advanced Training

This is an advanced Arduino training that will allow users to become more familiar with the other sensors that can be used with an Arduino. Requirements Facilitator
