Intro to Arduino: 01: Getting Started

Are you interested in making your own electronic devices, but don't know where to start? Want to make something move? Light up some LEDs? Add a bit of interactivity to an exhibit?

In this hour-long introductory session, we start with the very basics. You will learn how to program an Arduino microcontroller development board, learn some basic electronics, control some LED lights and get well on the way to being a dab hand at Making.

Both staff and students are encouraged to come along and learn something new. The Maker Space will be open for further experimentation afterwards, so you can stick around if you want.

No prior experience is required, but you will need a working University of Salford computer login. We'll provide Arduino kits to use during the workshop.

Tech Intro Series

This series of workshops is intended to introduce new users to the fabrication technology available at the University's Maker Space. Users are then permitted to use the equipment independently with the assistance of technical staff only if required.

What do I need to bring?

You will need a working University of Salford computer login. Sorry, this event is for members of staff and students at the University of Salford only.
