An our primary engineering classes, students develop projects using the Arduino microcontroller. The course is a great way to spark interest in programming and the development of electrical devices. Microcontroller programming is a valuable skill for electronic engineers who want to create embedded systems, control devices, or interface with sensors. Microcontrollers are used in many industries, including manufacturing, robotics, automotive, lighting, and smart energy.
Students studied how to write programs, upload and run the programs on a microcontroller and test their circuits and code. It is a big job getting the wiring in place and ensuring all the code is written correctly but our students did a wonderful job debugging and developing their projects.
