Tools & Tech 2014
What are we going to do?
- learn to identify (or guessify) common 'building blocks' in a device
- understand some of the ways how a device knows about its surroundings
- understand some of the ways a device can influence its environment
- learn to work with a microcontroller platform
- learn basics of programming
- possibly learn soldering(?)
How to go about all that?
We'll need to fill up our tools & tech toolbox!
