About The Course

    Some students find robotics and electronics interesting but intimidating. Others wait for the “right age” to start learning about the latest technologies. But curiosity, interest and a little support are all you need to get started and satisfy your love for technology. So, if you are interested in electronics, robotics and coding and are curious to know how huge technical projects are created from scratch, welcome onboard to learn these the fun way!
    In this course of Computing with Arduino, you will be introduced to the fascinating world of electronics and robotics through the Arduino simulation platform. You will learn how robot circuits are designed and operated. You will also learn how intelligent robots are programmed through coding and test the robot’s knowledge in a simulation environment.
    With 100+ practice exercises, you will test and build circuits and code simulation-based projects to gain a deeper understanding of hardware in terms of input and output devices. You will be introduced to the applications of C++ coding in robotics. You will also be exposed to a variety of sensors, such as tilt sensors, ultrasonic sensors, temperature sensors and so on, and their applications in robotics and other real-world applications.
    In this course, you will also be given in-depth coding practice in core coding concepts, such as conditional statements, looping constructs, functions and objects.
    Computing with Arduino is a project-oriented course that comprises several interesting projects:
  • Automatic Traffic Light Simulator
  • Intruder Alarming System
  • Password Genie
  • Smoke Safety
  • Temperature Monitoring System
  • Light Fader Automation . . . to name a few
