About the event
Join us for this six-week afterschool program on Mondays, 5:00 - 6:30 PM, beginning November 11. Students will be working with the microcontroller Arduino to learn electronic circuits & build an autonomous car.
Students will learn C++ language to program an Arduino to control LEDs, ultrasound sensor, servo motors, DC motors and an H-bridge. They will also learn about electrical circuits and how to use a soldering iron. Then, they will put all that knowledge together and build an “Autonomous Car” that can avoid obstacles and drive through a maze.
At the end of the course, students will be able to bring the car home to continue developing their programming skills.
