In this workshop, we examine how to use code to control hardware. Using the both the official Arduino SDK and Johnny-Five library for Node.js, we will learn to make LEDs light up, control Web APIs, read update web pages, pull data in from third-party APIs, and read data from the world around us. Along the way, we will learn the fundamentals of electronics and work with microcontrollers.
By participating along with us in the workshop, you'll learn:
- Learn to build web applications can interact with the physical world.
- Learn to read information from sensors and display it on an LCD.
- Learn to control motors and servos with your code.
- You write JavaScript to control physical hardware using the Johnny-Five.
