Course Objective

This continuing education course is written specifically for professional engineers with the objective of relating to and enhancing the practice of engineering.

Course Description

Have you ever had an idea for an electronic device but did not have the toolset to implement the idea? Enter Arduino, a programmable electronics platform that lowered the barrier of entry for making things. Anyone can pick up programming for Arduino, as it was originally intended for non-technical people. For engineers it is a great tool for quickly creating a prototype.

This class will introduce the basics of Arduino development and give you the foundation for building your ideas. Some experience programming is helpful, as Arduino uses C++, but do not worry if you have not done much programming before.

Very good starter for Arduino micro-controllers. Have to dig a little but the course is very good reference material in applying Arduino controllers.

I needed a little bit of hand-holding in using the Arduino on-line editor. I've spent time on YouTube tutorials. Also, you'll need to solder the I2c to the LCD display board. I didn't get all of the examples to work correctly. I wanted to get acquainted with Arduino an this was a good way to get started.

Very enjoyable course. Quite enjoyed the practical element of it. Text could use an editor as there were lots of typos or sentences which ended abruptly. Overall still a very enjoyable course.

This course is a very good introduction for anyone looking to get started. I've been using Arduino for prototyping and R&D test development for some time now and still found this course useful. It is also a breath of fresh air to see a practical PE course related to newer technology.
