Have you ever wondered how electronic gadgets are created? Do you have
an idea for a new proof-of-concept tech device or electronic toy but
have no way of testing the feasibility of the device? Have you
accumulated a junk box of electronic parts and are now wondering what to
build?
Learn Electronics with Arduino will answer these questions to
discovering cool and innovative applications for new tech products using
modification, reuse, and experimentation techniques. You'll learn
electronics concepts while building cool and practical devices and
gadgets based on the Arduino, an inexpensive and easy-to-program
microcontroller board that is changing the way people think about
home-brew tech innovation.
Learn Electronics with Arduino uses the discovery method. Instead of
starting with terminology and abstract concepts, You'll start by
building prototypes with solderless breadboards, basic components, and
scavenged electronic parts. Have some old blinky toys and gadgets lying
around? Put them to work! You'll discover that there is no mystery
behind how to design and build your own circuits, practical devices,
cool gadgets, and electronic toys.
As you're on the road to becoming an electronics guru, you'll build
practical devices like a servo motor controller, and a robotic arm.
You'll also learn how to make fun gadgets like a sound effects
generator, a music box, and an electronic singing bird.
